I wanted to make a meditative ambient soundscape that would be appropriate for a science fiction film or for meditation. This is a pretty simple patch using only three voices with complex modulation to create the resulting sounds. I hope that the annotations are educational and help you learn something that you can apply to your own electronic experiments. This is entirely live and improvised, so I put up annotations to try to teach you a little bit about what my thought process is when making these. I hope the annotations and camera angles help you learn something!

Patch Notes:
Instruo CS-L both channels final outputs to Make Noise Optomix to Monsoon (clouds clone).
Serge NTO to Make Noise QPAS to Echophon to Erbeverb.
I'm using 4 sources of randomness:
Frap Tools Sapèl is controlling waveshape and octaves of the CS-L oscillator.
Wogglebug is controlling the filter frequency of the QPAS
A Stillson Hammer sequencer is set to random and sending CV to the resonance CV of the QPAS
Zlob Modular Diode Chaos to Erbeverb decay, to NTO waveshape, and to Monsoon grain position
