MSK 007 Percussion demo

Demo of the MSK 007 Leapfrog Filter as a percussion instrument. Modal blips and bloops are in feedback mode using an envelope generator to "ping" the filter; multi-tone scratching is with feedback turned off, filtering bursts of white noise. The filter module's built-in VCA is switched to control the feedback, so that it can swap between feedback mode for the pings and non-feedback for the scratches on individual notes under MIDI control. There are also some blue-noise bursts in there for contrast, which just go through an external VCA without being processed by the filter. Note this is all one take, no multitracking.
