PULVERISER
906
Filter Frequency
Use this for dynamically changing the Frequency parameter from an external audio signal. The result of this modula-
tion is Filter FM.
Volume
Use this for dynamically changing the output volume from an external audio signal. The result of this modulation is
amplitude modulation (AM) of the Pulveriser output signal.
CV Modulation outputs
Follower
On this output the control signal from the Follower is present.
Tremor
Here, the LFO CV signal from the Tremor section is present.
Demolition tips and tricks
Don’t restrict yourself to using Pulveriser as a basic compressor or distortion unit - you may be surprised to find how
often Pulveriser can add power, warmth, color and “movement” to your sounds. Here are some examples:
Beef up your sounds
Use Pulveriser to fatten up your sounds:
1. Select the Low Pass 24 filter type in the Filter section.
2. Set the Frequency parameter to a low value so you can barely hear the lowest frequencies.
3. Set the Threshold, Attack and Release knobs in the Follower section to minimum values.
4. Slowly increase the Follower > Filter Amount knob until you can hear the lower frequencies of the sound.
5. Adjust the Blend knob until you are satisfied with the mix.
6. Adjust the Blend, Squash and Dirt knobs to fine-tune the sound.
Make your pads tremble
Use Pulveriser to create movements in your pad sounds:
1. Select the Comb filter type in the Filter section.
2. Set the Peak knob in the Filter section to a fairly low value.
3. Turn the Tremor > Filter Modulation amount knob past the 12 o’clock position.
4. Set the Tremor Rate knob to around the 10 o’clock position.
5. Set the Threshold, Attack and Release knobs in the Follower section to minimum values.
6. Set the Follower > Tremor Amount knob to around the 2 o’clock position.
7. Set the Tremor > Volume knob to around the 3 o’clock position.
8. Play a pad sound which has long Attack, Decay and Release times and a fairly low Sustain value on its amp en-
velope.
Notice how the Tremor Rate and intensity change and modulate the filter and volume according to the pad volume.
