Hybrid Synth with wavefolder and CEM filter

#1

My new synth/music project is a hybrid digital/analog duophonic synth.
I plan to use an Axoloti and some analog circuits for distortion and filter.

Here is my first experiments with a wavefolder

(re recording, the axoloti generates mixtures of triangles to the wavefolder, no filter yet, i added some ping pong delay)

Very cool! So this circuit here is only the wavefolder or a filter as well?

#3

it's only the wavefolder.

I will experiment multiple options/designs before i choose which one i prefer.

I'd like the analog connections between the filter and disto to be versatile and controlled by the axoloti with some 4051 or 4053 switches.

That sounds great. Did you ever get these to work with axo? I failed multiple times...

Also Cv control over the filters would great no? Then you could have lfos and stuff from axoloti.

4051 worked fine for me with the axoloti for muxing pots. I have made some objects to handle them for pot multiplexing

#6

Ah ok, but thats a bit of a different use case, no? As far as I got you, you want to change the audio routing with the multiplexers?

#7

yes, that's totally different and there is many difficulties such as voltage for the control signals...
i have some ideas but i will have to experiment and check if they work in real life without damaging the axoloti...
(when experimenting such things 10k resistors and 3v3 zeners for protectection are great friends).
