Today we play with the subharmonic series! By taking advantage of FALISTRI’s ‘on rest’ behavior, we can use it as a sort of formant oscillator and achieve some odd frequency divisions. Have you tried yet?

INGREDIENTS

• FALISTRI
• BRENSO (Or the other FALISTRI generator set to work as an oscillator).

DIRECTIONS

1. Set your oscillator’s pitch very high.
2. Set FALISTRI’s green generator to Transient mode and its time scale to Short.
3. Set its reset behavior On Rest.
   (The switch is on the PCB!)
4. Patch your oscillator’s square output to FALISTRI’s green Trig/Gate input.
5. Patch FALISTRI’s green bipolar output to your favorite output section.
   (You’ll now hear the oscillator’s pitch, but the timbre will come from Falistri.)
6. Gently increase the Rise and Fall times.
   (You’ll notice the timbre getting fatter, until the frequency will drop by an octave, then a fourth, then another octave, then a minor third… This is the subharmonic series.)
7. If you are running a sequence, try applying the same V/oct signal to both the oscillator and FALISTRI.
