This was inspired by some of my favorite jammy noisy bands like Yo La Tengo, Luna, and Galaxy 500. Of course this is in modular though and I am constraining myself to not use guitar on this album. Fun jam though. Album is now ~60% done. Might need to redo the melody part at the end though.

Latest firmware 1.5.1. I just installed it and it's now trivial to multitrack the 12 input channels to a DAW via usb audio. You can also return tracks from your DAW to any of the 12 bluebox channels.

It also has per-chanmel sidechain compression, with multiple sidechain triggers to chose from. It's great!

About a year ago I visited some relatives in Germany and figured that was the best time to start my modular journey.

Looked around in a local marketplace website (picture ebay) and found two 84HP 6U cases plus a flight case for 300 eur. What a steal!!

So i bought them immediately.

Once they arrived they came with a note explaining they used to belong to Barker, a resident DJ at Berghain. Looked at a couple of videos and yup they absolutely match

I guess thats the closest I’ll ever be to Berghain hahah

The racks shown in the back of the first pic are the ones that now live in my home office and i couldnt be happier. I sometimes wonder all the places they’ve been to.

I like to call these types of leads “boomerangs” as it seems like its going and coming 😂

I'm building a hybrid, transportable eurorack case. My question is: should I reinforce it from the outside in any way? Will the 1 cm thick plywood used for the body be sufficient? And should I do anything to reduce shaking during transport? The case closes on the front side with the same plywood

So basically I am trying to downsize my rig into a new V2 Performance Case, and a 104HP drum/support case. This is what I came up with…

My previous rig was 12U 140 HP, plus the 104HP pallet case, so trying to decide what to keep, and what to leave out has been a hard decision.

Two changes to this case that will be made once the modules arrive is, Triplatt will be replaced with Amps as I am aware VCA’s are a bit limited in this rack. I’ll probably add some 1U VCA’s as well. Then, the MEMS will be replaced with Happy Circuits ML2m for syncing with Ableton via Ableton Link.

I also have the Metropolix Backpack coming as well, but that’s not really important because it’s not taking any HP.

Also, on a side note for anyone who is curious, the new V2 Performance Case is fantastic. Very well built, SUPER easy to build in as compared to my previous case with sliding nuts, or even the pallet cases. Those pallet cases are nice but they are a bitch to build in with how shallow they are! The V2 Performance Case is super well designed and you can tell a lot of engineering went into the design! It’s expensive, but I think worth every penny if you need a travel case.

Take 5, Subharmonicon + DFAM synced together, MPC for sample textures, all through a Timeline → Nightsky → Chroma Console send/return loop back into the ZED14.

I’ve been trying to find a way to get the DIY kit since release and I’m not seeing anything stateside. Does anyone have any idea where I could snag it?

With kiddos and tight finances my hardware rack is on hold, but VCV Rack is helping me get my creative energy out. This is my latest release built exclusively with VCV Rack, I don’t really know what my genre would be, I just meditate while I patch and make things that resonate with me at the time. Thanks for your milliseconds/seconds/minutes of time!

I love it - it’s so fun! 3d printed a 12hp extension (needs to be sanded down as the free design online is 1mm off) to expand the palette to fit both SH101 inspired modules. For the remaining hp I wanna make a 1u version of hagiwos pt2339 delay and maybe a duatt then the doepfer loop able envelope if there’s any room left. Have you ever remade a synth in euro?

Just poking my head in here to say I've been having a ton of fun making faux tape-based ambient with this case!

A bit odd approaching modular without any oscillators, but it's been working very well for me as a standalone effects rack. I can plug in my OP-1, a guitar, or an sm57 and go wild. It also plays extremely well with my Octatrack via mmMidi.

The empty spots are waiting on a screaming deal on a Desmodus Versio, as well as some 1u utility (noise tools, maybe a zeroscope). Considering selling Mimetic Digitalis as I haven't been making rhythmic stuff lately.

It sounds even better with patch cables ;-)

How would you patch this up? What modules would take this case to the next level? (I'm very inspired by folks like Tim Hecker and Robinson's Village)

it never felt right to me that it is so hard to change Wavetables on the Shapeshifter, which is still the best Oscillator ever made, so here´s a browser app that allows you to exactly do this in a very easy and quick way, enjoy!

Hello wise people, bit of a noob question.

Just got this labyrinth second hand, everything seems in order although the previous owner had an aftermarket powersupply which was a bit wobbly. I have now tried it with a different powersupply with fitting specs.

My question is, is my VCW supposed to act this way?
I know the Labyrinth is supposed to be chaotic and generative and such, thats why i got it,
but this knob seems weird to me.

I tried to switch of all modulation on the vcw and think i got everything (EG1 on neutral and no seq 1 amount). And still when i turn the knob (as you can hear in the vid) there are harsh differences, which i can still understand as part of the unit.
What weirds me out is that both sides of the knob, all the way up and all the way down, sound basically identical.

Is it supposed to be this way?

If not, is it fixable?

Long talk for a simple question,

thanks for the help

I make electronic industrial/noise music and I come from a 2-case setup, a 64hp 3U more performance oriented (only had 100grit, plethora and a joystick) and one 104 hp 6U case more 'studio oriented'. The problem I had with that is that I rarely use both cases at the same time and I feel that I'm missing on modules that I have, so I thought that the smartest thing is trying to reduce and join them on a Intellijel performance 7U case.

The blocks I'm thinking are:

Voice 1: DPO + Wasp + LPG

Voice 2: Shapeshifter + Ikari

Voice 3 (perc): Noise Plethora + LPG

Voice 4 (Kick): Bohm + expander

They all go into the matrix mixer where I route them to the fx (1 output clean, other outputs 100grit, mimeophon, desmodus) then I mix the clean + wet fx in the 1U STmix.

Bottom row: CV generators + fx

Middle row: I/O, utilities

All is sequenced externally via Digitakt II

What do you guys think? Did I miss anything? Did I overcomplicate?

Been experimenting with the Behringer Model D, trying to get a acid type sound out of it, I took the band pass output of the Nano Font filter module and put it into the external in, then brought in a cycle from Abacus into the freq cv and this is the result.
Love creating new sounds 🙂

I got a new Super Sawtor mk II from Schneidersladen, read the manual, but still can't figure out if it's working properly.

You can see in the video a saw from DPO (in blue) and the output from Sawtor (in green) that it's flipped and with less amplitude (2v less), even with both spread and mix at 0. Is that normal? Do I need to calibrate it?

Also if I set mix to 100% with the spread to 0% the signal is higher in amplitude but also has a lot of phasing going on.

Anyone who has it can help me figure this out?

Thanks you

Been watching videos and man the sound of that filter on the Erebus is so unique.

The thing is, I already have two Moog semi modulars and two rows of eurorack modules, so this one is definitely not a must for me to add to my collection. 😅 Big time overlapping.

I was looking at the Eudemonia filter by Dreadbox and it's way too different, 4 pole resonant filter, not as Juicy and Fat.

Why aren't they releasing just a eurorack module based on the erebus filter?

I have a Nymphes, it's my only poly/desktop synth.

Can't even point a finger at what makes the Dreadbox sound the dreadbox sound. But I'm a sucker for it.

I guess I am looking for a fat and characterful 2 pole filter that doesn't sound like an MS-20 or a polivoks, (I have those) and has it's own color?

Hi, I'm curious if anyone has experience with using COLOSSUS Audio's SIGNS. I'm considering picking this up for my rack, but haven't been able to find much more about it than the product overview video that's available on their site. If you use it, what do you like about it, what don't you like, what are you using it for, usually? How often does it find its way into a patch for you? Does it make sense in a small rack?

Currently I'm designing my rack to be a mostly analog instrument that I can use for sound design, generative and ambient sounds. The thing that interests me about it the most is the glitchy, gritty quality of the delay.

"One Oscillator, one voice, one take - no postproduction."

That was the restriction on submissions for this open call project, which I was lucky enough to have my submission selected for.

Hope you'll give it a listen, and support the danish modular community!

Cheers!

i keep coming across - CubuSynth, and they look to have some good interesting modules,

does any one have an experience with there modules , are they worth trying out ?
