A 16 minute practice run on my Eurorack setup, no external processing, simply using Ableton to record the stereo output. This is me slowly moving towards being comfortable using this instrument to improvise in a live setting (in surround sound). To me the fun starts somewhere after 05:00.

I'm trying to see what I can get out of two voices and effects. I feel like I need to learn how to steer this setup more in depth before I add more voices and elements. But I'd like to add a sequential switch to the setup just to be able to move between divisions (without pulling out cables) and get more interplay between the different sequences.

My decision to use FM synthesis as the foundation in my patches recently has led me to write/play in higher registers than I'm used to, not sure why, maybe it's the ease of dialing in FM and the precise harmonic control my dual oscillator provides that gives me a new perspective. I'm liking this development, it's keeping me motivated to go on with these experiments.

Patch notes:
- Clock and a random sequence modulating the amount of FM on the oscillator coming from Endorphin.es Shuttle Control.
- Highest voice: Endorphin.es Furtherrrr Generator being sequenced by Music Thing Modular Turing Machine going thru a 2hp Tune quantizer. The Volts expander (a 5 bit sequence from the Turing Machine) is what I'm using to transpose steps in the sequence by hand. Envelope from Maths.
- Low voice: A filtered square wave on the Moog Mother-32, sequenced by the same sequence and a simple tonic/fifth pattern on the internal sequencer. The internal envelope is also used to control the fall time of the envelope on the high voice.
- Soma LYRA8-FX is used for a bit of distortion and a hard panned delay.
- Clouds is adding a small delay in another division and reverb.
