Muff's Modules & More

I've had an Electro-Harmonix Ravish Sitar for a while but have never tried it with the modular before. Here's how it sounded with Analogue Systems RS360 Filter Band sine waves. The RS360 is controlled by a Doepfer A-149 Quantised Random. The RS360 goes into the Ravish Sitar then an Eventide Space

It came out sounding like a Vangelis organ.

Sounds like a falling, spinning, circling church full of cotton balls...

When I first saw the video demos of the Ravish Sitar I thought it would be great for the synth. A certain type of sound of course but since I tend to love a good drone field I thought it would be great for instantly fattening up a drone field. How well does it work on more steady state sounds?

Timely thread with the passing of Ravi Shankar.

I like that track Dave77 - but I think the painter's name is Philipp Haager?

Nice.

I tried it with two E350s... and when you evolve the wavetables, it sounded kind of like a sitar. eek!

So I had to throw some Klaus Schulze-y like Andromeda leads and chords, modular sequences, and filtered noise swoops over it.

Thank you so much guys for letting me (and notably, my inner effect junkie) know about this amazing pedal!
This, together with coming across a 2012 edition of The Hermit by Eugène Ionesco just totally made my day!! (It's been a long since I was so excited about any chunk of hardware honestly hyper

)

Thinking about passing through it my DWG (buchla 258) and monotribe...must be fun! Also, as of late, I'm lusting for days for elektron analog four, and I'd imagine it will only benefit from some subtle sitarization This is fun!

PS: also note how this stompbox freaking has a pitch-bend CV and VCA control over sympathetic level woah

(I'll be patchin 'em envelopes to that latter one all day...about to get SSF PTG, so it's even vactrol envs we're talking about!)

applause

Upd. Oh, and all nice demos in the topic. Thanks again.
