I wanted to add dirt to Verbos Complex Osc with 100 Grit and I got... Guinea Pig Chattering and Crying Puppies?

Have alerted the SPCA and PETA about this synthesis technique.

Can you explain the whole chain/patch?

Sure thing. I have a sequence coming out of the Vector Sequencer into Verbos Complex Oscillator with Envelope handled by Quadigy into Veils 2, then running it to 100 grit for dirt and into SSF vortices for the main voice.
The kick is DFAM dry into vortices.
The hihat sound is another DFAM with the signal split, dry and the wet signal is going to data bender into the green (reverse mode), then into Starlab for a little reverb, then Vortices to mix.

I read 100 grit and crying puppies and immediately knew it was going to be some 100 grit feedback squeals lol. They are insane. I love when you get the reallly low squeals that have like an elephant sound to them

Yes! I’ve actually only gotten those touching the brass. It’s such a unique module. It makes me want Angle Grinder, even though I don’t need another voice in my case.

got 100grit AND angle grinder. lovely pair. ;)

Do you use Angle Grinder often? 100 grit I really like, but use pretty strategically since it gets gnarly so quickly and don’t modulate it often.

i do mostly drone/noise/feedback patching. so i use both in every patch. they are flexibel enough to serve different purposes.

I get similar feedback craziness from my dark matter. Its intense and pretty hard to tame.

I’ve heard great things about Dark Matter and Bastl in general. I wish I could control 100 grit a little better. It needs a cv input for calming down.

Put the drums through too!

100 Grit is clearly a classic module. Either as a filter or as solo noise instrument.

I had a funky riff that I wanted to add just a little more distortion to, so I sent it through 100 Grit. I slightly turned up the FM and Res and it introduced guinea pig chatter during the rests, then if I flip the gain to high (17 seconds in), it changes the guinea pig chatter to crying puppies.
I really love the unexpected results with modular.
