from Dani:
"One of the most exciting facets of Silhouette's design is how the sound palette changes and, really _unlocks_, via self-patching. For example, patching SHADOW back to the various INPUTS allows for SPOT-controlled regeneration.

In this video, a chord from Just Friends and a 'kick' from Mangrove is spread across the INPUTS. SHADOW is patched into the sixth input, which makes SPOT's modulator act as a temperamental levee -- just as the level of the signal's feedback seems to overtake the output from LIGHT and RIGHT, a small nudge engages the strange attractor and SPOT surveys an ever-changing landscape of pulses and tones.

I'm particularly enthralled by the way that SPOT and its modulator become a macro control -- panning and voice distribution are linked to the depth of the self-patch's influence. This becomes apparent when SHADOW is patched into the third input, which creates a different stereo terrain.

Self-patching is very rewarding across the entire Mannequins lineup -- eg. a channel from Just Friends patched back to its own INTONE will create a wonderfully complex undercurrent to its otherwise predictable movement."
