KjivekGolden Flower Meditation - Day38 : Earth and circle of lightYouTube3:58am - Element earth Trigram Kun ☷ Orientation South West Patch Overview: This modular synth patch is inspired by the depth and serenity of a recent meditation practice aligned with the energy of the earth and the new moon. Designed to evoke a sensation of a luminous circle and an inner calm, this patch uses various modules to mirror the meditative flow, connection to the earth, and subtle energy dynamics experienced during the session. 1. Primary Oscillators (Instruō TSL) 110hz @instruo • Outputs: Use both the sine and triangle wave outputs of the TSL for a pure, grounding tone. • Ring Modulation: Route the outputs into the Befaco A*B+C @Befacosynth a subtle ring modulation. This reflects the idea of building resonance in meditation, where multiple energies unify and form a cohesive field. • Filtering and Texture: Send the resulting signal into the Viol Ruina Filter @NoiseEngineering This filter will shape the resonance to give a feeling of depth and evolving clarity, much like the inner concentration and grounding through the meditation. 2. FX Aid for Space and Atmosphere @happynerding4369 • Shimmer Reverb (Dual Mode): Set the FX Aid to Shimmer Reverb in dual mode, which brings an expansive and ethereal quality to the patch. The reverb creates an auditory “circle of light,” reflecting the luminous aura experienced during meditation. The dual shimmer adds a subtle, crystalline texture, symbolizing the protective energy surrounding the body. 3. Clocking and Modulation with SQ1 and Air Streamer @Endorphines • Clock and Envelopes: Set the SQ1 to 30 BPM to match a slow, grounding rhythm, which will drive the Air Streamer envelope. • Envelope Settings: Configure the envelope from 0 to +5V, applying it to the Viol Ruina’s filter frequency. This gradual movement emulates the energy flow, gently rising from the Dantian, traveling up to the third eye, and descending back, embodying the energy’s circular motion. • Air Streamer Modulation: Patch the Air Streamer’s envelope output to modulate the amplitude (AMP control) subtly. This helps the patch “breathe” like the rise and fall of energy in meditation, linking the breathing rhythm to the audible texture. 4. Meditation Parameters and Elemental Connection • Mudra and Earth Energy: The Bhumisparsha Mudra was used to connect deeply with the earth’s energy. To mirror this, the patch is grounded with low frequencies and filtered textures, anchoring the listener. • Energy of the New Moon: The setting of the new moon and the connection to the earth element inspired a focus on clarity, calmness, and a fresh energy cycle. This atmosphere is reinforced by the shimmer reverb, creating a peaceful, immersive sound field that feels protective yet expansive. 5. Final Sound Character and Focused Intention • Flow and Dynamics: The Air Streamer’s modulation gives the patch a breathing, circular rhythm, representing the expansion and retraction of the luminous circle experienced in the meditation. • Sound Characteristics: The primary tone of the sine and triangle waves, subtly modulated and filtered, adds an evolving quality to the sound, similar to the meditative journey from grounded focus to expanding awareness. • Visual Representation in Sound: As the energy draws inward at the end of the session, this patch can be closed by reducing the filter’s resonance, letting the sound retract, similar to how the luminous circle was visualized shrinking back to the Dantian.
