Moog Subharmonicon Semi-Modular Polyrhythmic Analog Synthesizer - Manual (Page 8)

9
Subharmonicon is an intensely creative semi-modular analog polyrhythmic synthesizer that uses
mathematical ratios to tune its four subharmonic oscillators, and to control the timing of its four
rhythm generators. Because these tuning and timing values are integer-derived, there is something
uniquely coherent about how patterns and phrases created using Subharmonicon blend together
musically. As with Mother-32 and DFAM, Subharmonicon conforms to the 60HP Eurorack format;
features aluminum rails, finished wood side pieces, an extensive patchbay; and can perform as
a standalone electronic instrument.
