Meet ARC & patch your slopes & functions better! (Patreon)

PATCH BETTER! with Dual Slopes & Function Generators // with ARC from NANO Modules

Join me for this video packed to the brim with patches that you can apply to LOTS of modules (some of which you may already have) on the use and importance of slopes and function generators. Learning how to use them and the range of things they can do allows them be the backbone of a modular system that will bend into your ideas and provide way more than the simple interface may suggest. This is also a demo of the new 'ARC' from NANO Modules. A dual slope/function generator with added bipolar VCAs and logic that as you'll see in the video and timing index below - is highly capable of many things!
