This patch uses the Polygene module to trigger multiple FM modules (Squinky labs). The FM module on the top row labeled “Main FM” is the sound source. The other 2 FM modules modulate it whenever they are triggered. Channel 2 of the mixer has noise, in case you want to add that too.

The bottom row has some controls to make it easier to manipulate the sounds.
1. Pitch Note Speed controls the clock speed and Polygene’s trigger speed.
2. SliderSeq sets note pitches. It’s set to random and the pitches go through a microtonal quantizer (on the top row).
3.Pitch LFO Speed controls how fast the notes are modified.
4. Main LFO Speed controls most of the filter and FM modulations.
5. EQ. Sometimes I turn down the Highs, because tweaking FM parameters can get nasty.
