The Phase Randomiser.
The purpose of this module (as stated in Part1) is to ensure that each oscillator starts randomly out of phase with the rest of the bank. It consists of a bank of seven ED Random Volts modules, with the trigger to generate the random voltages taken from the MIDI input Trigger plug.
Note: if you don’t have the ED modules they can be found at https://www.elenadesign.eu/repo/
You must ensure that the Minimum plug is set to -5, and the maximum to 5 on each module to get the correct operation.
The Offset module.
Here we have a Fixed Values (Volts) module to provide our bank of offset voltages. Each one is fed into its own Level Adj module on Input 1 Plug, and the Offset Level input is fed to each amplifier except for the Centre (Oscillator 4), since this is a 0 volts offset it could be left out, but it’s there for the sake of making 100% sure that there’s no offset at all on this Oscillator by holding it at 0 Volts. By this means we can increase the spacing of the offsets, while keeping the frequency ratios constant (this does make sense – honest).
The offset level works best with the range of Minimum = 0V and Maximum = 3V (OK you can go beyond 3V offset gain, but to my ears it start to sound really out of tune.)
Once again all the fixed voltages for the offsets are shown in the Properties panel on the RHS of the image.
