BugBrand Modular

1Frame SynthVoice

The 1Frame SynthVoice arrangement presents a combination of modules aiming roughly along 
the lines of traditional subtractive synthesis (VCO → VCF → VCA). The patchable, modular 
approach not only gives great scope and versatility around such areas, but also opens up 
many more esoteric arenas for exploration.
