Hi all,

i am not a musical & programming newbie but I am new to the concept of TC-11. Just bought it, it rocks!

Now to my question:
How would I program a patch for TC-11 with white noise & lfo sweeps aka up-/downlifters?
The goal of such sweeps is to create and release tension in breaks of house/dance music. Typically I would play those live on stage instead of using static samples. TC-11 is an integrated instrument in my live set.

Common parameters fur such sweeps are:
- lfo speed/rate/amount
- oscillator frequency/waveform/volume
- fx delay/distortion.

I know this forum talks about experimental things, so let's make this a little more experimental than it is normally.

I have attached some examples and a self programmed patch which comes pretty close to what I want to do, but I think the TC-11 can do more and is more creative than those standards.

Does anybody have ideas / is able to program such a creative patch?
Lets share ideas and patches...

Hey m8r - a good challenge! I whipped up a quick patch to mimic a few of the sounds you linked. There's a catch... I cheated a bit and used the new version (1.4) that hasn't come out yet. Embarassed

The good news is: I'll be able to share the patch soon since version 1.4 is already uploaded to Apple and should get reviewed in a few days.

In the meantime, here are a few snapshots to show you my patching:

I should post a small explanation: it is important with the LFO programming that you understand how to scale and shift (Scale and Center, respectively) the output. Getting that right takes a bit of thinking.

In this case, I wanted the sawtooth shape to rise up instead of down. So the parameters that catch the signal are told to invert their values. But this means that to get the LFO smashed into the ground, the Center parameter has to go UP to 1 instead of down to 0.

It's also important that when you want everything to act in unison to use the LFO - Global controller. But if you want individual touches to be separate, use the LFO - Voiced controller.

Laughing OK, i got the point with the inverted lfo, mine was sounding interesting, but not quite right. I have attached some new versions...

Waiting for your patches for 1.4... If anybody else wants to give a go and participate, feel free to upload...

I think my patches are still pretty basic: Evil or Very Mad Question remains: Which parameters can be added/changed than those applied and will return musically creative results?

Could You, please, post your preset "risers" alone under the :tcp format? I downloaded it, dezipped but after this, I don't know how to do, to put it to TC-11 from some application to storing to iPad...
The other preset published here is much easy - after the click it come directly to TC-11...
Thank You!!!

I never posted the RPressure riser patch I made, so here it is:
