Build a Custom Chain

Edit this page Edit on GitHubDescribe a problem

Save any changes you want to keep, then choose File > Reset Active Patch to Default. This leaves one OSC module in the chain.

Select OSC in Chain. Under Waveform in Module, choose the sine-wave icon.

Expand FREQUENCY and move the Freq X / Freq Y Pad to change the spacing and direction of the colored bands.

For this recipe, enter 3 in Freq X and 2 in Freq Y, pressing Enter after each value. Leave the channels’ other controls at their default values.

Expand INSERT FX, click + Add, and choose Kaleidoscope from the effect type Selector.

Click the numeric field for Segments, enter 6, and press Enter. Drag Rotation to turn the mirrored pattern, then enter 0 in its numeric field before adding modulation.

The effect runs inside OSC’s Insert FX chain. Keep that one module for this recipe; a second generator would add another image to the chain.
