Analogue Modelling in Blocks Flashcards
What two parameters would need to be set on a Monark Oscillator in order for you to use it as an LFO ?
Range needs to be set to Lo and Keyboard Tracking (KT) set to off
Which control on the Monark (MiniMoog) ladder Filter can create a waveform of it own if set high enough ?
The Resonance
On the Monark (MiniMoog) ADS Envelope generator what do the two switchable ‘Mode’s refer to?
The MiniMoog had a different Envelope for the Amp and Filter and each had different characteristics and behaviour, the Mode switches between emulations of each
On the Monark Filter what does the REL switch do and is it more useful for sustained sounds or plucky sounds ?
It changes the Decay value to be a Release value instead (so the Sustain becomes the max level) and is more useful for sustained sounds
How do you mute the signal on a single channel of Bento Box Mix ?
Click the Channel number
Which setting can be used to achieve input saturation on the Bento Box Mix ?
Selecting ABS (Absolute) mode and driving the input
Why does varying the pitch slightly between multiple oscillators create fluctuations and movement in the tambre of the resulting sound ?
If the frequencies are changing slightly then the phase relationship between the waveforms in also changing, resulting in phase cancellation that alters the frequency content over time.
Which Reaktor Oscilator Block is based on the Roland Juno 106?
The Multiwave OSC (Boutique)
What are the 3 types of Sub waveforms selectable on the Multiwave OSC (Boutique) ?
1- Square wave -1 octave
2- Square wave -2 octaves
3- Pulse wave -2 octaves
Which Reaktor Oscillator block allows you to add stacked oscilator voices with additional harmonies?
The OSC 5 (Boutique)
How couldyou create rich, evolving sounds with Reaktor’s 5 OSC (Boutique) oscillator Block?
By modulting the Pulse Width (PW) and Shape (waveform shape) controls’ values.
When utilising Pulse Width Modulation, what aspect of the waveform is being altered?
The positive phase or Duty Cycle is being altered to values above or below 50% (50% is a square wave)
How much reduction per octave is applied with a 4-pole ladder filter
24dB per octave
How would you create a classic Hard Sync sound using two oscillators with Sync Function (In Reaktor) ?
With two oscillators connected to a mixer, route the Sync Output of one (the sender) to the Sync Input of the other (the receiver). Increase the Sync Amount on the receiver and then also increase the frequency to add harmonic content to the waveform
With two oscillators in Sync mode (and with sync amount at full), which parameter could you modulate to make sweeping FX sounds ?
The Frequency of the reciever oscillator.
