There are three effects slots that process incoming sound in parallel, tripling your cannaba-randomness! Past generations of effects are accessable via the Organelle's keyboard.To help demonstrate Cannabits we turned to the Cinematic Piano patch which was made by chkbeto. It sounds really nice!patchstorage.com/cinematic-piano

Use ‘Displace’ to hear the upper drawbars attack and release at a faster rate than the lower ones. There’s also a fun tremolo effect and transpose knob. Namesake’s drawbars can be ‘drawn’ with MIDI! Plug in a midi control surface for unique control of this synth.

Critter & Guitari - 4waveFM, Repeats, and Chordi Critter & Guitari 2022-09-07 | critterandguitari.com 4waveFM, Repeats, and Chordi is less of a recipe, more of an idea to try.

Critter & Guitari - Freeze By Tempo, Quilt, and Cycler Critter & Guitari 2022-09-03 | Let's do a music! We're showcasing three recent patches. They're a ton o' fun to use on their own, but even better together, especially when you start routing audio and MIDI to different places. Steer the vibe in another direction by plugging in an electric guitar or another instrument in your stud' (pronounced 'stoood').Download today from critterandguitari.com/organelle-patches !
Critter & Guitari - Cycler for Organelle Critter & Guitari 2022-08-23 | Download this patch here: critterandguitari.com/organelle-patches/cyclerThis is Cycler. It's a sample patch that *cycles* through samples on a given key at a controllable rate, making it fun and easy to create evolving beats and patterns using whatever samples you please.

Critter & Guitari - Quilt and Chords Roll Critter & Guitari 2022-08-10 | Quilt filters audio and adds a nice delay. The filters are sequenced and send MIDI notes. We sent MIDI to Chords Roll on another Organelle. Then, we brought the audio back into Quilt to be filtered!
Critter & Guitari - Quilt for Organelle Critter & Guitari 2022-08-05 | Download this patch here: critterandguitari.com/organelle-patches/quiltSend your sounds through a sequenced multi-band filter and a delay! Both are synced to a global clock and can be set to different note divisions and durations. Use the keyboard to turn filter bands 'on' or 'off' Instant cool rhythmic patterns abound. Quilt can add a little character to an already-good sound, or can self-oscillate and fly away all on its own! Add noise and durational control to your sound. Run an entire song through Quilt if you want to be delighted. We did this with 'IAMARMX' by ZOE.LEELA. Listen to it here: freemusicarchive.org/music/ZoeLeelA/C3SIX__The_C3S_Ignition_Mix/IAMARMX_1162
Critter & Guitari - Freeze Patch for Organelle Critter & Guitari 2022-07-23 | #critterandguitari #organelle #guitarpedal Download Freeze Patch here: critterandguitari.com/organelle-patches/freeze-patchRecord short audio samples and infinitely loop them.Slow things way down with four different freeze methods: Latch Mode uses a foot switch (or the aux key) to freeze at your discretion. The sound will be frozen until your next foot switch press. Envelope Mode has additional controls for attack and release - so your frozen sounds rise and fall.Auto Latch uses the incoming audio’s amplitude to control when it freezes. When sound level crosses a threshold, that audio is frozen until the next time the threshold is crossed. Here, the footswitch cancels the freeze.AutoEnvelope also uses the audio’s own amplitude to control when it freezes, but features the attack and release controls for additional automation. The keyboard transposes the frozen sound so that you may play the frozen sound on its own. Furthermore, transposing the freeze with the keyboard allows you harmonize with your external instrument.Enjoy!
Critter & Guitari - Freeze By Tempo for Organelle Critter & Guitari 2022-07-05 | #critterandguitari #organelle #guitarpedal Download this patch here: critterandguitari.com/organelle-patches/freeze-by-tempoFreeze by Tempo is a ‘freezer’ effect that is synced to tempo.
