Gives insight as to the circuits inside a standard polyphonic synthesizer. For true polyphony, basically you need to copy the entire circuit of the synth for every extra voice needed. Few things can be shared, such as perhaps effects like reverb. So the Moog One 16 for example, it has 3 oscillators, 2 multimode-filters, 4 LFOs and 3 envelope generators, but it has sixteen voices, so in reality it actually has 48 oscillators, 32 multimode-filters, 64 LFOs and 48 envelope generators ;-)
I´m just wondering how one could have each note only playing one voice, that would be interesting, playing chords through voices that are quite distinct from each other. A difficult task in terms of the designing of the voices and musically as well.
Is there a module that would the oscillator architecture to allow playing 6 or more voices at the same time from a keyboard, but have cv for things like waveshape? No need for filters, vca, envelopes etc. because I’m thinking of running something into my PRO 2 which would have plenty of basic synthesis plus 8 assignable cv.
The Polyend Poly is supposed to cover that . It has 4 or 8? assignable cv outs that can be mapped to different midi cc's. The same with the Expert Sleepers FH-2 (&expanders)
Hi ! Thanks for Your tutorial !! It will help me to bring polyphony ni my System. If i understand , you must have at least ( for me 4 voices with a doepfer a 190 5 module ) 4 oscillators, 4 vca’s , 4 enveloppes . It s nécessary to have 4 filters ? Thank you ! And your system is very impressive 🙂🙂👍👍👍👍
Yes if you want real polyphony. If you don’t have 4 filters then you won’t need 4 vca 4 adsr to achieve what is known as paraphonic. Like a Matriarch or Korg Mono poly
@@StepDub of course but not as fun and educational. Also because of a lot of the voices being from a different origin,it makes it a very unique poly synth .
Such a fascinating tutorial. So interesting to see how you actually build a voice or voices and that mod rig is mighty impressive 👍.
Thank you ! I’mglad it is of interest!

That is crazy beautiful! Very impressive!
Thank you!
Wow! Nicely done!
Thank you!
I'd like to try making a poly/paraphonic modular synth, especially using cheap VCOs, lol :V
What's the name of the mixer ?
JPSynth stereo mixer.

wow !
Merci!
How do you connect all the voices to your midi Key board ? Is it possible to use the harmod to achieve that ?
Great Work
Cheers
Yes the Hermod can achieve a 8 voices poly.

Why r u using 2 ASDRs per voice? I see that the curve for both VCF and VCA are the same, could u have used a buffered multi instead?
Yes but if I want a different curve for vcf ? I have more flexibility that way.
A bit expensive using doepfer etc, modules. Might be somewhat more practical with beringer synths/modules.
