What types of audio modules work with video?

It would be great to know what experiences you have had using audio modules with your video gear. For instance, I know that a typical audio splitter will split video signals as well as it does audio, so they are very useful in my rig. Also, I was thinking about getting a comprehensive audio filter to use with video, but I was told that the different filter types don’t have very much effect on a video signal. This was useful as it saved trying it out for myself. So please share any experiences…

Using audio modules in a video synth system

One of the most powerful, exciting aspects of modular video synthesis is the freedom to connect audio and video signals together in a fluid, direct manner. In a modular system, signals are patched from outputs to inputs. The inputs and outputs aren’t defined by a file type or signal protocol like a software environments — the standard is universal: voltage fluctuating over time. This is true whether or not the signal is a square wave from an oscillator, a control voltage from a sequencer, or …

Xaoc - Zadar for video

Zadar is my favorite audio module to use with LZX! Especially when you get into audio rate looping, any of the envelope shapes immediately become video shapes Here’s an example modulating the different shapes with an LFO, while Zadar FMs one of my Vidiot oscillators

Using other utility modules outside Video synth makers

I use Maths, Moddemix, Brains, and Pressure Points. They work for slow CVs and even horizontal video patterns. Maths and Brains can use sync pulses from Visual Cortex!

a good passive quad slew is just about everything I want in a utility module.
