Master Volume
We'll keep the subtractor routed to the Pulverizer, but let's put them in a combinator by selecting both units by shift - clicking each unit, then right clicking and choosing 'Combine' from the pop up menu. If you remember from the 'Route Breath to Anything' series of tutorials, we can use the RPG-8 as a breath to CV converter. Just create an RPG-8 Arpeggiator while holding shift so it doesn't auto route. Turn off the arpeggiator function. Then, create a Spider CV Merger and Splitter, again while holding shift. Flip the rack around and connect the Breath CV out of the RPG-8 to the Split A input of the Spider then connect one of the outputs to the volume input on the Pulverizer. It should look like this (click for the full size pic):
Master Filter, too!
So there you have it. The Pulverizer is a great new addition to the Reason rack for wind synthesists because it is something of a 'one stop shop' for breath controlled sounds. In one device, you can fatten up your sound with the 'Squash' and 'Dirt' controls, and control your volume and filter cutoff via the CV inputs.
Here is a completed patch and sound example. Until next time, have fun making music!
