1. 2 more multistage LFOs or simple MSEG with 16 fixed steps on x and 12 on y with 8 points which are variable and have a Loop between 2 points.
2. Loading of own single cycles in the SubOsc 1 and 2
3. Comp- and Formant-Filter
Thats all !
There are quite a few Hive related threads at the moment and if you care to go through them you will find some more information from Urs about plans for Buchla/West-Coast style loopable AD generators. I enquired myself about additional LFO mod sources for v2 and that was the response I got.Urs wrote: ↑Tue Dec 25, 2018 11:48 am What we do in Hive is very different.
Now, as for MSEGs and stuff. The thing I learned from Eurorack is that one can combine simple sources and extract complex signals and rhythms. "Rhythm extraction" is actually a thing, like, when you observe two out-of-sync sources and create a third signal based on whether which of those sources is higher or lower. That's just one example, there are plenty more. For Hive, I have a novel module in mind which lets people extract multiple complex modulation signals out of just 8 individual steps. It's going to look like a baby version of the stepped modulation sources in Spire and Massive, but IMHO it'll be endlessly more powerful than those. It'll surpass those "90 different shapes" easily without overwhelming people, and with options to bend them in realtime.
