Her Approach

Her basic approach is to focus on two modules:

  • ER-101
  • Verbose Harmonic Oscillator

She practices “minimalism” in sequences. Even getting to the point of having a single sequence, and modifying it (she is quoted as saying there are 100 variations she can make from a single sequence)

  • gate patterns??
  • attenuate the sequence
  • sequence speed without affecting gate speed???

Generally her setup consists of:

  • ER-101
  • Verbose Harmonic Oscillator
  • Random Source (sometimes wogglebug, sometimes frap tools)
  • Echophon
  • Erbe-Verb
  • Maths (or other DUSG)
  • Complex oscillator (DPO usually, sometimes Bresno)
  • Doepher ADSR
  • Doepher VCFQ
  • Deopher quad vca/mixer

Very little in the way of modulation.
