110 ARTURIA – MOOG MODULAR V 2.6 – USER’S MANUAL
Simple patch #1
 To begin, load the “Blank_Synth” preset in the “User” / “Blank”.You will notice that it has
no cable connection and it delivers no sound . This is normal, it is from this preset that you
will program your sounds from scratch.
 Choose a sound source on the first oscillator situated in the lower section: take the audio
output of the saw-tooth waveform by clicking on the jack . This wave form produces
the richest noise signal out of the 5 wave forms proposed. It will be ideal for creating a
“brassy” sound, for example.
 Direct the cable to the input of the first filter (“VC Low Pass Filter”) by dragging it to the
“In” jack. This first cable will come confirming the connection.
 Now direct the audio output from this filter (“Out” jack) to the (jack “vca in”) input of
“VCA1” (output amplifier). Make sure that the trigg input of the output amplifier (VCA1)
selects “keyboard trigger”
 Now play on your MIDI keyboard and you will hear the sound from your first patch.
We recommend that you save it as it is as it will come in useful for programming basic bass or
lead sounds. (See the “saving a sound” chapter)
Turn the filter cut-off frequency button progressively to the left to change the brilliance of the sound. It will become
increasingly “soft”.

The sound of your first patch may seem a little empty. Here is how to make the sound more
interesting and “fatter”. This patch will use:
