Скачать или смотреть Exploring the Befaco Octaves VCO (2/5) — Pulse Generation & Modular Clocking

Part 2 of the five-video improvisation series focusing on the ‪@Befacosynth‬ Octaves VCO.

Instead of using the Octaves as a sound source, this patch repurposes the module as a pulse generator and clock multiplier. By lowering its frequency range with offset and treating each of its outputs as an independent pulse stream, the Octaves becomes the rhythmic and modulation engine of the system.

Patch highlights:

All Octaves outputs used as gates/pulses

Offset applied to shift V/Oct control into LFO territory

Pulses routed to function generators and LPGs to create articulation and timbral motion

Buchla 258t and 4ms Ensemble Oscillator serve as sound sources

Dynamic control of VCA, contour shaping, and rhythmic phrasing

There is no narration. Audio is presented clean and uninterrupted, and key ideas are annotated through on-screen text for viewers who want technical insight.
