welve Kay Patch Notes:

Ø-CTRL CLOCK - ON

Ø-CTRL INTERRUPT - OFF

Drip in some EXTERNAL SUBSTANCE to complement Strega’s internal

TONES. Use the

indicated TOUCH AGITATOR/GATEWAY to crumble the sound and vary the amount of TIME

MODULATION to taste. Set up a nice sequence with Ø-CTRL’s PITCH, STRENGTH, and TIME

rows and allow the feedback from CV2 to create dynamic instability.

Tips

Play with different loop points using Ø-CTRL’s touch pads.

Try using Ø-CTRL’s CLOCK output to trigger Strega’s AGITATION FUNCTION GENERATOR and

re-adjust its controls to taste.
