Can we talk about modular synths?

[gila_crisis]

Also a very good idea is to start with VCV Rack!
It's free and it allows you to try out modular. In my case it was very important to understand few basics and put together the ground my system.

[coldbrightsunlight]

Good advice! Definitely worth doing before spending money

Last iteration my skiff: last additions are X1L3 Shard, Void Modular MicroWuff and Colossus Audio RASP.

super hawt. loooove X1L3 loots. looking forward to the hent multi exf module he's working on.

just got in a 90 hp 6u BlackHole case -



it's pretty basic. the Pipe is so i can send from Oxi One to the Quad Envelopes into Noon. Listen I/O so i can send audio from synths and the computer into the euro effects, Maestro and Pam's (waiting on a blacked out Pam's Pro to get back to me) for effects modulations

next to most used with euro loots.



and this is what makes me super happy. a pre-patched setup that is ret to go and clean -

I was also super luck to find a ERD SIR (Martin had a spare one around!): I was always a fan of MArtin 1010.co.uk stuff (I have a Micro Black Death which is my most loved noise synth). I also took a bit of time to rearrange and rethink the skiff setup.

[coldbrightsunlight]

Looking great! How do you find the ERD SIR?

[gila_crisis]

I love it! When I first got it I just plugged it in as a oscillator, thinking it was like the Micro Black Death: it's a wonderful noise maker, but I felt something was a bit missing.
Then I read the manual and found out it's more intended as a Cv generator, so it started to use it like that, and it's super cool, because you can "infest" other modules with that random behaviour I love from the MBD.
In the end it doesn't matter how you use it, for me it's a winner!

[coldbrightsunlight]

haha all that matters is that you have fun in the end.

[behndy]

right? In The End Fun is the GOAL.

giggety.

and shit.

first moop around with the Liquid Glitcher. it's NEAT.

Yeah that one looks very, very cool. If my eurorack didn't have delay, looping, Rings, I'd seriously think about replacing it with this. As it is I'm only semi-seriously considering it

[behndy]

really wanted to like the Noon, final figured out how to boost it to useful levels. have it running into the 10x channel of a Bastl Buddy. here it's going through there into the Dark Matter -



all drums are from Noons.

Been a while since I checked in here. Admittedly, I'm doing so selfishly, but first, super happy to see Behndy still at it after his big sell off!

Selfish reason: I have a new track out today from a performance I did with my friend. I'm on synth and they're on saxophone. Sax is being processed live with Beads. I put piano and guitar samples into Arbhar for the drone stuff. Then everything has delay and lots of distortion options. It makes for a really nice meditation: https://driftdiffusion.bandcamp.com/tra ... man-on-sax

This is great, thanks for sharing!
