Hello MG forum--I am, like some other beginners on the forum, not new to electronics or electronic music, but I am to the world of modular synthesizers. I am planning my first system now.
When I think of component placement in a vacuum-tube amplifier or in my various effects circuits, I avoid placing certain things near each other for various reasons (like keeping power wiring away from audio wiring in an amp, etc.).
• Are there modules that should not go near one another?
• Do some "not get along" when placed on the same bus in a rack?
bought the Ken Stone Burst Generator, awesome unit. everything worked out perfect. Friendly communication.
Would buy anytime from @bachelard again, many thanks !
Since Eurorack seems to get more popular, every month new manufacturers enter the market.
Some of them come up with amazing new designs. But many manufacturers just get their prototype working and never manage to turn it into a working product which people can actually buy.
Because all those Vaporware manufacturers would clutter up the database, we moderate the entries.
You cannot buy into the list.
the policy for a manufacturer listing on MG
Users must be able to buy your module and get it delivered now, not soon.
ideally you have at least 3 modules to sell in a store
or have ONE everybody talks about
no listing for manufacturers who produce designed blank panels only
no listing for manufacturers who produce Mutable Instruments clones only
no listing for manufacturers who produce mults only or other very basic designs
We have always the right to deny the entry.
new product launch
For technical reasons we cannot add a manufacturer to the list without having a module attached.
You have to upload the module always as “other/unknown” first.
If you check it as “unlisted” the module wont show up in other people browsers.
So you can prepare the module page shortly before you announce it.
You can upload an “enigma” photo if you are suspicious and do not want the image to leak.
As I see it, those two envelopes are not in use in this video. The connection must combine their output to whatever destination an additional cable might take them. (The possibility of additional cable comes from the yellow cable's stackable form.) It's the same as if they were both patched to an unbuffered mult, with nothing (yet) coming out of that mult.
This rack is designed to be a feature instrument, accompanying instrument and sound processor for external audio sources mainly other instruments like guitar.
A Barton Ciruits Guitar input (not pictured) and Analogue Systems RS-35 provides injection and interface between external instruments and the modular. Piston Homda mkII is capable of applying it's wave table to audio sources without any convertion to CV necessary. This eliminates any tracking errors and glitching, and enables a natural polyphonic practise of your instrument with no restrictions as you would normally enjoy. The RS-35 and Barton Circuits Guitar In allows you to control virtually any parameter of the modular as you play depending on how you play.
Im not totally certain that the stand along uhc will self oscillate. I am not near my system at this time but I think that you can invert filter 2, take the notch out of filter 2 feed it into filter 1 input 2 and control the gain for self oscillation. Again, I am not certain of this.
I know that you can patch self oscillation with the uhc audio expander but those are not in production and rare.
I'm trying to learn about modular synthesis. I'm interested in the monome stuff, and the patches in the demo videos.
In the meadowphysics video here: , it looks like one of the in/outs is reversed. The yellow patch cable is plugged into the outputs for 3 and 4, and it looks like the input for Trig 3 is being sent as an output somewhere.
What's going on with this? I read the Quadra manual, and it didn't say anything about this. Is it reversing the envelope or something?...
Bought a couple modules from @grieve with full satisfaction. Extremely prompt, modules well packaged, everything as expected. Would readily buy from @grieve again!
Nice. Last night was a blast and a little frustrating at the same time. Completely different envelope format and the filters response to cv inputs seemed really sensitive to me. Nonetheless, I'm already thinking about more modules.
Big Voyager fan here. That was my first knobby analog synth, too.
I think you will love your new foundation, that is kind of another Voyager just with lots of wires!
Welcome to ModularGrid!
I've been tweeting knobs since the early 90's, albeit digital knobs. Mostly korg, native instruments, and omnisphere. I couldn't figure the math out in my head why would I want to spend so much money on an analog synth. 3 months ago I bought my first analog synth in the form of a minimoog voyager. It was too sweet of a deal to pass up. The sonic skyline was the limit, or so it seemed. Not even a full week in with this beast I was quite shocked at how limitless the modulation possibilities were on the voyager. Still though, there was an ever growing inspiration each day I started tweaking the knobs.
Tonight when I get home there will be a package with 1 - p.m. foundation 3.1 On top of this I have a happy ending kit from tip top audio, and a DYI buffered multi on the way. I am looking forward to growing my sonic palette as well as with this community.
Deleting seems to be something the site admin needs to do. Perhaps if you edit the title to include something like (DUPLICATE) in the title, it'll be noticed and purged. The site admin is pretty active in the Facebook group, or you might message him here. Good luck! :-)
You are right, obviously!
I don't understand, though, since I definitely searched for the module in the database (by name and by manufactorer!), before I added it.
The metropolis is very nice and interesting indeed, but I would like to have hands on single 16, or more, step for sequences (8 steps would be nice just for the cv). The pressure point array is also very interesting too but again, is 3x8 only it would awesome to have also the option of 1x16 + 1x8 or 1x24 .
The space it's also a problem, for the sequencer I've planned something about 34hp, if it's worth I can sacrifice some utility modules and find some more space but not more than 2-4 hp...
The external sequencer it's a good option too, the beat step pro looks amazing! and in case I would also have space for other modules (SYNTHESIZER BOX from Pittsburgh Modular would fit lovely!).
Any other suggestion?
you might wann check dis one out: https://www.modulargrid.net/e/mengqimusic-voltage-memory
i guess most people use external cv sequencers like arturia beatstep, doepfer maq16/dark time, korg sq1, ...
my personal favorite is futureretro orb
Thanks to @AThousandDetails, @daviskeithdavis, @modezart for recent transactions. All well-packaged and great communication with tracking, timely delivery. Loving all the modules.
It's easy to use and make noise make useful videos on youtube with tips. and what about brains+pressure points? i have it too and it is very cool, 3x8 combination with a few options to play with, check out this:
Oh! I didn't think about that earlier!
But 8 step it's not enough for me.
What about rené? Is it difficoult to use? Does it fits well in a live situation?
Hi guys!
I'm about to purchase a sequencer for my rack. I would need that to sequence mainly cv and some sequence (no drum sequencing) and I ned some help choosing the right one.
Right now I'm choosing between those modules:
-Make Noise René
-Audio Damage ADM06 Sequencer 1
-Verbos Electronics Voltage Multistage
-Tip Top Trigger Riot
-Tip Top Z8000
And in case of the Tip Tops, something to generate trigger?
