Guest chunky Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 just had 10 lfos made up in 1u racks 2 lfos in each rack 20 lfos in total cost 300 quid got some problems (oscillator locking), probably power supply filtering need to get it sorted soon then get some other shit made also got 5 nand gate pcbs waiting to go in cases gonna go to hangzhou next week with my cousin and see about getting a 1u rack coloured pink hehe banana sockets for everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lala Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 I love my modular :] wish id got into it earlier.. although we are in another golden age arent we. so much cool stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoeB Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I love my modular :] wish id got into it earlier.. although we are in another golden age arent we. so much cool stuff Oh, me too. Given that I got into music making in about 1997, I wish I'd learnt enough back then to buy a Doepfer A-100 and learn a little music theory. But you live and learn, and it's nice having these things now, at any rate. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcock Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 Got my SAAS through and took the plunge. this is on the way in a few weeks. thinking of taking kakapos advice and starting with the intellijel atlantis, which chews up my current budget, and then work in from there.

Guest Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Elektron Analog Keys incoming.... so I'm thinking of adding a nice extra thingie to it. the E350 seems like I would like it quite a bit. asked on muff what others would add to the E350 in a very small euro expansion setup, someone came up with this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kakapo Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 That would work, but you could actually get away with just the elektron and the e350. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 yea may do that actually! the parts above are like $800+ already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloudbreaker Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 That would work, but you could actually get away with just the elektron and the e350. So long as you can pipe the audio back into the elektron for filtering – would be nice to have something capable of vca/stuff as well. I think you could send the envelopes out from the elektron so you wouldn't need that component necessarily. I started without filters // vcas and found it pretty limiting pretty quickly.

Guest Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 yep, a voice from the A4 can be used for filtering/amp. this should be pretty good with the E350, only downside is that a voice from A4 must be sacrificed for this purpose. can also be scaled up to using all A4 tracks as filter-bank... but adding something like that µVCA is probably a good idea for making the E350 a dynamic voice on its own..

Guest chunky Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 nand gate building a large system for personal use case arrived yesterday. so weighty and solid. pcb a bit childish, next ones will be professional looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcock Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 what would be interesting after a signal and a filter. envelope generator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kakapo Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Yes. Maths is an obvious choice, but you could look at MI Peaks too (amongst many others). How are you sequencing/getting pitch to the oscillator? I have an STO and like it a lot, there's deceptive depth in there. Check this thread. http://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=97694&sid=5d0461d80795b15561f2f3e5aa7d08f8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcock Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 im eying up the intelligel Metrpololos sequencer, its look like the bomb, but its not cheap atall. ive got the cash, but it would knock me out for about two weeks as far as getting any other modules go. whats good in the sequencing world within the range of 200-250 rather than 450?

pcock Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 http://www.rubadub.co.uk/make-noise-pressure-points-eurorack-sequencer this is a much more pleasangt price range, i could grab that and the maths right now pretty much. im just firing in blind, and i dont mind too much. i would prefer to just get stuck in and see what happens, learn what i like as i go than spend 3 months reading shit on muff wigglers. i have been reading it though, its a really useful site.

kakapo Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 The metropolis comes up for sale on muff's fairly frequently. I've bought second hand from the states and not had to pay duty and had no problems, might push it into that budget. Take what I say with a pinch of salt as I have no direct experience of Pressure Points. (I sequence from an A4, CVpal and a fully expanded Turing Machine). But I don't think it would do what you want it to do, at least not without the brains expander and possibly another pressure points (or switches). Also brains appears to play nicely as a controller for another sequencer, i.e. into the aux input on the metropolis. I would hold out for the metropolis, or if you can find one, ZoeB's sequencer, which is closer to that price point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kakapo Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I should add that what is often touted as the best sequencer in Euro is the orthogonal devices ER-101. From all accounts an acquired taste, but one of the guys at London Modular swears by it and he does a lot of live techno. I suspect it would drive me nuts, but it certainly looks the coolest (and I do factor that in). 4 channels also, and an expander coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcock Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 a little birdy told me that its now impossible for intellijel to make more of the metropolises due to the factory making the 8point switches going out of business, so they will be shooting up in price over the next few years.

futureimage Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Yeah I heard the same from London Modular - the Intellijel guys can't source the crazy multi-way sliding switches. I'm sure there'll be a mk2 to get around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
