Make Noise tELHARMONIC

The Make Noise tELHARMONIC Synth Module is a Multi-Voice & Multi-Algorithm Synthesiser that is inspired from Thaddeus Cahill’s original Telharmonium in 1897. It was coded by Tom Erbe with the goal of presenting three historically important pioneering electronic tone generation techniques less often implemented within the modular synthesizer.
The tELHARMONIC's roots go back further than the advent of electronic music, as it also takes a new approach to handling music theory in the modular context. TONIC, INTERVAL, DEGREE and D-GATE, allow for patch-programming of complex chord progressions, scales, melodies and playing styles. This Voltage Controlled Music Theory guides the Algorithms in a unified way, whereas CENTROID, FLUX and H-LOCK sculpt the timbre of each Algorithm uniquely, allowing for complex sounds to be created around a unified melodic structure and pattern
The main features of the Make Noise tELHARMONIC Synth Module include:

• 3 Voice Additive Harmonic synthesis
• Noise synthesis inspired by "Analog 1: Noise Study" by James Tenney
• 3 Voice Phase Modulation synthesis inspired by early commercial digital synthesis
• CENTROID, FLUX and H-LOCK animate each Algorithm uniquely
• Algorithms available simultaneously at respective outputs
• 6 octaves of continuous 1V/ Oct. pitch control
• 4 octaves of quantized pitch control
• 3 Voice Shift Register
• Voltage Controlled Music Theory
• DEGREE Modulation able to be synchronized by clock or gate via D-Gate input
