Guitar through modular synth sounds ridiculous

Summary by Krater

Andrew Huang and Rob Scallon run a guitar through a giant modular synthesizer system, testing different modulation techniques like pitch shifting, vibrato, delay, and envelope following.

Answers: What happens when you run a guitar through a modular synthesizer?

• Modular synthesizer guitar effects
• Pitch shifting guitar signal
• Modulated vibrato and reverb
• CV control using guitar volume
• Grain processor audio effects

What it concludes

• Routing a guitar signal through a modular synthesizer allows for complex, non-linear effect routing and modulation compared to traditional guitar pedals.
• Using the guitar's volume and pitch to control CV parameters on a modular synth creates rhythmic envelope and frequency modulation effects.
• Grain modules can chop audio into tiny fragments and pitch shift or loop them at varying speeds.
