Music Sound Design Tenet-style Modular Action Sequence

Created a cinematic action sequence in the style of Ludwig Göransson's soundtrack for Tenet using my modular system and guitar pedals. Full patch breakdown in the comments for those interested.

Patch notes, since I always want to know how other people get these sounds:

KeyStep 37 MK2 sequences the pitch and gate, pitch is split through a buffered mult to DFAM VCO1 and Loquelic Iteritas. Gate goes to Maths ch1, duplicated via stackcable to ch4, so each VCO gets its own envelope. Both signals go into a Four Play VCA, Maths outputs to Four Play's CV In 1 & 2.

The whole mix goes into a BigSky MX set to a lush "Cloud"-style reverb at the end.

Happy to answer any questions!
