Binaural Synth from Selig

I showed this synth in my live stream yesterday (Jan 13, 2020), and as promised here is the link:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/3wj1vso23zmm1 ... b.zip?dl=0

Here are four more patches showing a bit of the range, though I'm sure others can showcase the synth even better:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/w904nyf7scy9i ... s.zip?dl=0

This is (blatantly) inspired by the UDO Super 6, the only synth I'm aware of using a 'binaural' approach to stereo. It is a work in progress and everyone is encouraged to dig in and make it their own. As with most C2 synths, the knobs are maxed out. I resorted to buttons for some functions like LFO delay, LFO rate modulation, and OSC 2 Spread. Anyone wanting to add control will likely need to sacrifice one of the current controls (maybe the pitch envelope slider?).

Quick run down:
Two oscillators, one analog and the other mult-wave (think: super-saw)
Filter is 12/24 dB/Octave self resonating low pass filter with saturation (Drive)
Two ADSR envelops for filter and amp sections, both with velocity
AD looping envelope for detune and LFO 1 Rate Mod, follows the attack and decay sliders on the filter envelope (to save knobs!)
One poly LFO (1), one global LFO (2)

All modulation controls that are binaural (different effect for left vs right channel) are orange.
Follow Binaural Synth with the Binaural Hall reverb combinator for those super ambient pad patches!

Nice livestream and thank you for sharing the patches. I was hoping you would share it... sounds awesome. Looking forward to more livestreams, Giles.

finally, finally got around to playing with this today. What a freaking BEAST. turned what had been a pretty mediocre piece of nothing into a big death disco stomp and in a good way.

I'm not as cool as that - Selig is Giles (my first name) backwards!

Hahaha. I know that Giles. I was referring to MrBlue :). Maybe it’s a Reservoir Dogs thing.

Maybe it's just a coincidence, but I actually have an audio credit for two songs on Reservoir Dogs Soundtrack.
