Ten Petris. None of them stock.
Each dish grows its sound from a process found in a lab: reaction diffusion, cellular automata, predator and prey, an epidemic, quorum sensing. Two knobs for the organism, two for its medium.
MOSS 01MOSSHarmonics that grow in clusters. Warm dust, soft grit.
SPR 02SPOREA waveform made of living cells. Digital rot.
IND 03INDIGORatios that drift like ink. Glass, then struck metal.
BLM 04BLOOMPredator and prey fold the bass. It never repeats.
PTL 05PETALA frozen spectrum that smears and wilts. Pure air.
PHY 06PHYSARUMFive oscillators lock and let go. A reese that breathes.
PHG 07PHAGEAn outbreak moves a mouth. Every note talks.
MYC 08MYCELIUMStrings that branch and fork. Wood, wire, drone.
DTM 09DIATOMStruck glass, plates and skins. Kicks included.
LUX 10LUXA tone that lights up when enough gathers. Chaos on cue.
One plain chain.
Read it like the panel, top to bottom. No modes, no routing. In Petri FX your own sound takes the organism's place.
- 01
Organism
The sound source. Grows a tone from its own maths.
- 02
Medium
Two effects that colour it, one meaner than the other.
- 03
Filtration
The filter. Five membranes.
- 04
Percussion
The punch, in time with the song.
- 05
Perfusion
The volume, pumped like a heart.
- 06
Yield
Out. Held under the ceiling, never clipping.
A membrane with a cut off.
Five filters, solved without delay in their feedback, so a shaker can throw the cutoff around without a click. Drawn here from the plugin's own maths, at 1 kHz and 60 % Resonance.
