Pretty much exactly 6 months. I'd keep it, but I've spent so much money on modules and I'm already upgrading cases and realizing I'm gonna need another new one soon after that. And fuckkkk this is addictive.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
When you say semi modular, do you mean like an all in one system? Like the ones mentioned? I've found some stellar stuff on Erica Synths btw. Some of that shit is EXACTLY what I'm looking for sound wise.vidret wrote:Be sure to run a gate through it and into one of your VCO's to give it slew, it's so cool.worra wrote:Got my Function in, this thing is coooool. I need to do some more reading on the hang input, looks like it could be really interesting, and if I'm not mistaken, it's about the only thing that Function has that Maths does not.
And the waveform out is also an envelope follower, if you put sounds into the input, assuming it works like maths 1/4.
JWAR! since I'm your accountabilibuddy i'd say aim for a semi-modular, use it together with some pedals (you have more than enough), but IF YOU DO, you have to complete the QUEST!
If you do not complete the quest I gave you with a semi-modular you're not allowed to venture further.
I appreciate everyone's input btw.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
Semi-modular as something that is a self contained voice and package, but can easily interface with modular. So Mother 32, 0-Coast, PGH Lifeforms, etc...
Mother 32 has a sequencer and can be rack mounted, classic subtractive synth Probably easier to make "normal" music with it. 0-coast is supposedly both, but it leans much more additive with the wave folder and overtones. You kind of need a sequencer, quantizer, or midi to get normal defined notes with it, so it has a tendency to be more experimental. PGH... well I don't know much about it, so...

It's $660.
I think Intellijel's design is much, much sleeker.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
May grab one of those Make Noise cases down the road. I like the CV Bus and I also wouldn't have to have an output/headphone module anymore.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
Now that I'm focusing less on Euro and more on semi-modular stuff, I actually really like the idea of the Shared System and the new Shared System Plus looks awesome. May have to add that to the list to get sometime down the line.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
That's where allessandro cortini ended up. He got. Overwhelmed by all of his modular so he sold it all except a shared system (plus minus a few modules)MrNovember wrote:Now that I'm focusing less on Euro and more on semi-modular stuff, I actually really like the idea of the Shared System and the new Shared System Plus looks awesome.

You could suckle at the teat of Cortini that way, too.raj007 wrote:May grab one of those Make Noise cases down the road. I like the CV Bus and I also wouldn't have to have an output/headphone module anymore.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.
