Can we talk about modular synths?

[behndy]

Wiggle...... Mufffffffffs?

[kbit]

I accidentally a Basimilus Iteritas Alter.

My fuckin' Mantis case is full. What do?

Make music

What's yr full setup look like now?

[oscillateur]

You already have a lot of stuff right?

You all have more than enough gear to make music. The rate at which most people here buy modular gear is (and I'm not exaggerating) at least 10 times faster than me, for example.
Getting new toys is fun but don't deceive yourselves into thinking that it's actually a necessity.

Yeah, I know, I'm no fun .

[behndy]

lol. different ways work for different people. and shizz?

[oscillateur]

I'm not saying it's wrong to buy new stuff. It's not.
Just that beyond a threshold there's not necessarily a positive correlation between getting more stuff and making more/better/etc. music.

That threshold depends on people, yes, but I'd guess that for most people with no prior modular experience it's not that high (not 36U high at least ).

[behndy]

lol. 70U OR NOTHING.

jia. totes. but. at least for me, being pretty..... grabby? with loads of things. helped me decide where i want to focus a LOT.

Yeah that's known as the Ruiner threshold.

The Ruiner Limit, Edge of Extravagance, The Beautiful Country.

also, y'all see the Chunks Of No Coast two new Make Noise modules?

INTERESTING.

[D.o.S.]

Nooooo. What are the new modules?

[behndy]

i guess they were leaked by a store and now up on ModGrid.

Contour - 4 stage envelope generator

Dynamix - non vactoral LPG

they look just like their sections from No Coast. i think?

Oh hell yeah make music. I have a daily modular date at 4 pm every day. Rules. I guess I still have 8 hp here but thinking I'll fill it with a WMD Chimera when available.

HOT. Just read up on some of the extra bells + whistles, and it seems like the BYO 0-coast might be a real nice alternative to the real thing. I really like Make Noise's designs. They seem to be extremely practical but also innovative & capable of being pushed much further than the sum of their parts.
Also all of their oscs sound fucking rad??? I've thought about getting a couple used SPOs at a much later date because they seem like they'd be fun to intermodulate. Has anyone here messed with creating a feedback loop with FM? As in taking an out from one SPO (or any osc rly) & using it to FM a second, then taking an out from that second and sending it to FM the first? With proper attenuation (maybe some kind of LFO or modulation provided to the attenuation as well???) I feel like it'd be pretty badass.

[baremountain]

Yea, STO* Definitely couldn't afford two DPOs any time soon hahaha
I assume you mean this one?

Because yea those timbres are mega saucy. And the second patch they show is literally exactly what I was talking about!
