hello thomas,
more recommendations for wierd/unusual noise producing
modules:
a117 digital noise
a118 noise/random
a136 distortion/waveshaper
a137 wavemultiplier
a127 frequency shifter
a107 morphing filter
a101-3 modular vactrol phaser
a199 spring reverb
a196 pll
a155 sequencer in combination with a196 pll and a110
vco for graphic vco sounds.
bakis.
