Overdriving the Modular

I've been doing a lot more live sound design *DURING* my improvised modular sets recently and find myself reaching for more patch cables a lot more often...

![TDC Tunes Cable Selection.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/tdctunes/EpA6HvQZDSkPQ6F1N3ua5pABki2TCzC1NifcZeXy1H2tpVv9FuixNVegdFjyniLWwF7.JPG)

And with my [quest to extend Summer](https://peakd.com/musicforlife/@tdctunes/why-im-extending-summer-2021-all-the-way-to-spring-2021) in mind too, I've been thinking about ways to add *warmth*.

In this clip there is quite a lot going on:

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1181019774

Specifically:
- Use of sine wave beeps - this was a suggestion from @stickupmusic and I guess the thinking is: clean pure sounds = summery
- Lots and lots of wavefolding - I have a couple of different modules able to do this and I think the buzz it adds reminds me of a warm summer evening.
- Use of overdrive - I used this a lot in the set on the main lead sound as it creates a lot of... let's call it: "Fuzziness" (Fuzziness = warmth? - discuss!)

## New Overdrive Module!

I have a new module which is (mostly) there to provide a rich and warm overdrive circuit.

It's a Music Thing Modular Mini Drive and comes in kit form, though it was a simple one to build - taking a total of 24 minutes. I'm working on a post about the process and specifically demoing the sound to publish soon.

## Finally

Wishing everyone on Hive a warm, overdriven and fuzzy Tuesday! And above all, Happy Summer!

Tasty. Distortion can be awesome or awful, and everything in between.
