– A poor man’s 2022 Model D –
This patch replicates the signal flow of a 2022 Model D using Nucleus modules exclusively. It does not look, feel or sound anything like the original, but It showcases the power of VM Nucleus and the general fatness of a 3 oscillator monosynth.

I have tried to replicate every switch, knob and jack of its archetype to the best of my abilities and capabilities of VM Nucleus and I’ve labeled all controls and jacks from the original. The upper two cabinets contain the “user interface” of the synth with labeled controls (cream), the lower two cabinets contain the “internals”, including constant voltage sources, on/off switches, A/B switches, crossfaders and some signal processing (black labels for easier identification).

What I could not replicate:

– overload lamp in the mixer
– Decay switch (since the envelope generator cannot be controlled by CV), has to be done manually with the envelopes
– automatic switching to external source when a jack is plugged in (Ext. signal input and Mod. Source input), so I added switches
– triangle/saw hybrid waveform (since the waveforms cannot be phase shifted)
– A440 tuning tone (not really needed)
– headphone and low level jacks (also not needed)

If I have missed something or have made a mistake in the signal flow, feel free to leave a comment.

Have fun exploring and playing around with the patch.
