What's unique about the Subharmonicon is its ability to take a core oscillator and generate sub oscillators at special sub-harmonic frequencies, which can produce harmonically pleasing results. It also has the ability to subdivide a tempo clock and the result is a poly-rhythmic clock that creates interesting patterns, when combined with other sequences clocked at different sub-divisions. Maths by Make Noise however, is one of the most popular eurorack modules, and it turns out you can mimic the unique oscillator sub-harmonic and tempo subdivisions of the Subharmonicon with it. The result is that one Maths unit can take a core oscillator generate two additional sub-harmonic oscillators at a broad range of sub-harmonic frequencies. Ditto for tempo subdivisions. This clip shows you how. I already explained how to use Maths to subdivide a clock here: https://youtu.be/XJtpzysqJv8 My full review of the Moog Subharmonicon can be found here: https://youtu.be/GA_JpeAiWhs NOTE: Occasionally I’ll try out affiliate marketing and include affiliate links.
