I would humbly like to point out that there is nothing odd about using a low pass gate with a complex oscillator. This is literally one of the main building blocks of west coast style synthesis.

So I’ve done a bunch of reading after you made this comment. I didn't even know Buchla was a person till like two weeks ago, if that. Though it seems to me that the LPG does exactly what I am after really well. It seems like it plays a huge role in being able to create expresive plucky sounds from the CVCO. Also learning a lot of synth history along the way.

Thanks for getting the wheels turning.

There's two things that catch my attention here. Other than that, it seems well-rounded. The most-often made mistake with eurorack beginners is a disbalance between audio sources and audio manipulators. You did well on that part.

I wanted to double back and say thanks for the response and confirmation really. I did read enough to be able to approach this all with an idea of what I wanted and sort of what the big mistakes are. So it felt validating when I read your comment.

Thank you.

All that being said I’ve had some time to sit here and get to know Mindphaser a little and wow does this thing have some range! I’m sure it does more than I’m even aware of at this point. I jumped on an Erica Synths Quad VCA on reverb that was near me and at a good price. I think that will give me a little more control of this thing.

I’ll find out in a day or two.
