Phatty poly mode question.

I’m interested in a Minitaur for the purpose of stacking it with my Phatty and having the ability to play with 4 osc. Would one need the previously mentioned “app” (not sure if we’re talking iPad here) to achieve this? Or is it possible to set them up direct via CV or MIDI?

the “app” I was talking about is within a specific piece of hardware from Mutable Instruments called the MIDIpal. The “app’s” are things like an ARP, sequencer, LFO, etc. But, to get what you want, it can be done through MIDI. Keep in mind though, that the Minitaur filter and the Phatty filter are different. When adjusted in a scenario like you described, there is noticeable differences between them. So, I found the best solution is to turn off Local Control on the Minitaur and run the output through the Phatty input. And of course, you can only go as high as C4 on the Minitaur.

Thanks for the info! I’m now looking at potentially purchasing a slim to go along with my LP, or just saving up and taking the plunge on a Voyager.

The answer to the original question is yes non MOOG synths can utilise the moog poly Mode.

I had my telemark and SP playing like 2 voice last night… Sounded best (tightest) when the TM and LPs oscillators (2osc each) where in sync mode.

Cheers.
