This week I’ve been working on making pleasant, melodic sounds using the Model:Cycles Tone Machine. e.g. sounds that work for melodies/tunes.
On the Digitone I find I can get very nice sounds with 1:1 ratio but with the M:C it sounds a bit lacking in brightness so I tend to go for higher ratios - on a side note, some of the ratios that are close but not quite on a whole number sound very nice.
What are some good things to try on this machine?
Also, suppose I create a nice patch that works well for a tune, what are some good ways to change the timbre on a note by note basis that add variety but without making it sound overly disjointed?
