Agenda
- Basic layout and workflow of Scope DSP System
- Why modular?
- Differences between modular system concepts
- Basic layout and workflow of Scope Modular System
- Modular components and signal chain.
- Modular tricks and unique modules
We will get in depth and build a variety of machines while explaining how and why things are done.
Goals
- That you will feel much more comfortable with synthesis in general, and be able to understand better what is going on behind the scenes of any synth.
- Getting you going in using modular synthesis.
- Providing you with concepts and tools to take your own modular ideas to the next level.
- Getting you addicted
We will be using the Sonic Core Scope DSP Platform and Modular System for this course. You absolutely do not need to own the system, as the concepts shown are valid for any modular system. Of course, you will get an in-depth look at the Scope Modular, and get acquainted with this very nice system.

Awesome job! One day the Xite-1 is on my list of things to buy. All the glorious Scope DSP power really does wonders for experimental types like me who often max out their computer DSP fast! If i had one request it would be to hear more recordings of a bunch of Modular IV patches in HQ action.
