Moog Labyrinth: Patches Through The Maze

Описание: Unlock the hidden power of the Moog Labyrinth patch bay.

The Moog Labyrinth is a generative powerhouse that offers instant musicality, but its true potential lies beneath the surface. While the dual generative sequencers and "corrupt" logic are fun to play out of the box, the limited Decay-only envelopes and the unique parallel filter workflow can be frustrating to master.

In today’s video, we explore three advanced Moog Labyrinth patches that act as a map to the center of the machine. We dive deep into the patch bay to show you how to animate the Wavefolder, harness the Mod VCO as a multi-tool, and finally understand how the uMix can transform your signal path.

🧪 The Patches We Cover:
1. The Buchla Patch: A West Coast-flavored exploration using the Mod VCO as a self-resetting LFO to animate the Cutoff and Blend.
2. MOD VCO Go: Turning the Mod VCO into the "conductor" of the rig, using it to modulate the individual VCF and VCW VCA CVs for complex rhythmic movement.
3. Ring Frogs (Toad Ring): An advanced patch utilizing the uMix to blend the Ring Modulator with the Mixer Out, creating a feedback-style FM loop that sounds unlike anything else.

🔑 Key Takeaways & Tutorials:
Understanding Envelope Gates: How to work around the Attack/Decay constraints for longer, evolving textures.
Mod VCO Secrets: Moving beyond simple pitch to using the Mod VCO for knob animation and sync resets.
The uMix Map: A real-world example of using the uMix for attenuated Frequency Modulation (FM).
Filter Workflow: Choosing between VCF, VCW, and Parallel modes to sculpt your bass and noise.
