Can we talk about modular synths?

[behndy]

behndy, that's pretty nifty. I like the ruined guitar (?) sound a lot. Ableton is super powerful, I have had it for several years, but only use it to record music, not create or manipulate it. I am consistently baffled by people who are super good at Ableton and salute their genius.

scrapey strings foreverrrrrrrrrr.

yeah. super digging it. even just as a sequencer and the host for soft synths. it's so goooood and quick and fun.

that is a sexy little Destructi Box suh.

Behndy did you ever sell that trigger riot you had listed a month or so back?

nope! still listed!

Interesting examples of the Destructi Box.

All of this is modular+mother 32 (and a little bit of digitakt on one track...), mostly single takes. Felt quite inspired by patching those together recently, it's a fun setup

These sound great. I did esp. enjoy "Lunar Clips." Thanks for posting.

+ also re: Geordi LaForge. You can tell he's smart because of the equations and chemistry you can see behind his head.

I have removed the Moffenzeef Swarm from my little case. I believe I will use it in a 104 hp set-up alongside the Dwarfcraft Yep and see what kind of polyrhythmic / anti-rhythmic bonks I can squeeze out. Maybe some shit like this?

Also, thanks to everyone who listened to the track I posted a couple pages back!

Been following you work. Good stuff! I don't have any euro stuff but... I love the piston MK ][.... I thought it sounded better than the iii from demos. I went to High School with the Moffenzeef guy! I didn't know him per say but he played in bands with mutual friends. Thought about getting a stargazer at one point just to show support.

Reorganized my case this weekend (nothing better to do 7 weeks into lockdown without working). Not much truly new except the PE-1, which is nice to have for beefing up the Salmple.
Vid is my first jam on the system. Plaits in chord mode into Polaris, Stages doing square waves into QPAS with a wave going into !!¡¡ for audio rate modulation, Squid Salmple doing drums. Mimeophon on everything except kick and snare. Felt very Legowelt-y, which I'm not mad about.

Hey, thanks for listening! That's bonkers about the Moffenzeef guy, small world. He seems kind of nuts.

I haven't listened to demos of the MK3 Piston Honda but I bet it sounds p. good, too.

The Stargazer thing looks great, it looks like a very capable noise box. Back in the day, I would've been all over that but eurorack has consumed my very soul.

hawt. dancey. TIMES.

Sound Ahoy Bois - loveeeeee it. so angry.

so... question. i mean. i'm not putting up stuff because i'm trying to focus on finishing ideas off, and making a Thing To Spam every day... distracts from that.

but since this is a modular thread (mainly?), is it gauche to post electro stuff that doesn't contain any euro based nubblins?

[coldbrightsunlight]

Doesn't bother me haha

[Muse FTW]

As someone who is trying to simplify and reduce the footprint of their modular, I'm really interested in getting that new System Coupe from ALM. I already have 4 of the modules in there but man that all-in-one sleek look is really appealing to me. I love the form factor and the color scheme. I've got no space to set up my modular near my recording setup in my current place so it's all just sitting around.

Similarly, this thing from Make Noise makes me feel like getting the 0-coast again. http://makenoisemusic.com/synthesizers/ohctrl

And finally, I'm definitely getting that Subharmonicon whenever it's available. So happy it's finally coming out.

My "simplify" strategy is not working.

[coldbrightsunlight]

hahaha does it ever work?

The Make Noise thing looks like a good idea for someone who is not me. I have no use for it at all.

I am definitely very interested in getting the Subharmonicon and I am mildly interested in the 0-Ctrl. I would also love a DFAM to pair with the Subharmonicon and would be tempted by a No Coast to pair with the 0-Ctrl (if I could somehow find the funds). I might sell my Model:Cycles as I've still barely used it, but that'll barely cover the costs of the Subharmonicon alone. I might consider selling my Digitakt, but I already don't like that idea because I love that thing.

So looks like I will be somewhat dipping my toes back into the modular realm. Although, I am sticking to these semi-modular offerings; I have no desire to dive any deeper back into modular

Complete your mission. Execute order 66. Purge all modular. It is your destiny.

Mission is back on! Just Friends is headed out

Hey, the mission was still successful as I sold all of my modular! I don't think semi-modular really fully counts as modular anyways. It only semi-counts. I mean, if it does fully count as modular, then I guess the mission was unsuccessful because I kept the Matriarch
