In this patch I created a deep (oct 1) bassline on VCO1, a chirpy bird sound (oct 6) on VCO3 and a nice synth-layer in the middle (oct 4) on VCO2. VCO1 is doing all the heavy lifting from a notes and groove perspective. VCO 2 + 3 are more rhythmical. More drum-like. VCO3 is just one note held for half the bar. This creates an interesting effect as the Filter EG is triggerd by other notes of the sequence.
The most important part of the sound is the LFO (connected to the Filter Cutoff) creating this FM-like / instable feeling.
