In the latest WMDevices video, host Alex “Nasty Nachos” Anderson offers an introduced to control voltages in modular synthesis.

In modular synthesis, control voltages (CV) are low-voltage electrical signals used to control parameters of the sound, rather than carry audio.

A CV can tell an oscillator what pitch to play, open or close a filter, change an LFO’s speed, adjust envelope times, control amplitude, or automate almost any other function that accepts modulation. This is what makes a modular synth “patchable”: instead of fixed internal routings, you connect CV sources—such as keyboards, sequencers, envelopes, LFOs, random generators, or touch controllers—to CV destinations with patch cables.

Some CVs are continuous and smoothly changing, while others act more like on/off signals, such as gates and triggers, which are used to start notes or fire events.

CV is the language that lets the different modules in a modular synth communicate “talk” to each other and shape the sounds that you make.

What would you tell someone trying to get started with control voltages in modular synths?

• Mix everything in a “pro-grade” mixer, complete with sends, auxes and side chains.
• Control critical plug-in parameters with configurable widgets.
• Switch and blend twelve independent Scenes with seamless transitions.
• Set up single-knob, multi-parameter Macros for flexible control.
• Use external MIDI controllers and pedals to switch Scenes, adjust Macros and more.
• Play pre-recorded backing tracks, stems and loops. Route straight to the main output or through the mixer for further processing.
• Stay in time with other apps and devices using Ableton Link and MIDI Clock.
• Continuous, automatic background recording so you can playback and save whatever you’ve played in the last 15 minutes at any time.

• Find plug-ins fast by searching or favoriting. Hide unwanted plug-ins in the Plug-in Manager.
• Keep a library of your favorite Patches and plug-in combinations.
• Quickly load and save entire Projects with all Scene, Macro, Clock and Backing Track data.
• High performance, low latency, multithreaded audio engine that includes plug-in delay compensation and sample accurate MIDI timing.

Sessions Pro is available now for $19.99, which includes both the Mac and iPad apps. A free trial is also available.
