I would love this too in addition to the brain seed/quantizer, expression based sequencing. :snax:
I wonder if this can be used to the Pretty Tears too? :animal: :!!!:

Vidret uses his Kommander with his Pretty Years. It's awesome, like a theremin wah. I usually use mine with one output for CV and the other for Gating/triggering one-shot effects.

I found a trader for my Stillson Hammer so I have a Rainmaker on the way. Probably more beast than I need, still looking for a DLD most likely.
Yeah it can quantize to semitones, major, and minor. It's awesome and that's why I leapt on osc.s's when he put it in BST. :lol:
good deals are here.

This module is obese. It has much more flex than that 10 minute no talking demo. Stretching sounds and modulating hard leads to BIA-complementary noise swash. Plus can do boom, or click, or clank, simply. It loves to have its inputs stuffed and I ran out of modulation with both it and BIA going full bore.

To conclude, very yes module. Look forward to spending more time with. Also complements Equation Composer really nicely (BIT WIZARDS).

Give some iphone demos at least of variations in sound!

Glad that Brain Seed found a good home :).
And I also need to use my Kommander more.

I'm super tempted by the Koma Field Kit FX as a modular mixer, and the Mescaline should finally arrive soon enough, so I'm kinda considering getting a Mantis case to put both of them + a few other things (like a matrix mixer). That and the 7U would still be two separate instruments that can work together... Still not sure, though.

Also, just a heads up : never buy anything from Synthrotek.
The guy who owns that company is an anti-abortion militant and makes rape jokes on his company's social media profiles...

I kinda knew he was a dick and avoided his stuff partly because of that but now it's just 100% "fuck no".

yeah. weird, because i've chatted with him over email and he seemed normal. not.... this much a piece of shit.

i mean, before this i would have just said don't buy his stuff because it's all kinda garbage.

Yeah, I think I exchanged a few emails with him a couple of years ago about his cases/power supplies and there wasn't any difference between this and other exchanges I've had with other manufacturers. We were just talking about eurorack cases and not abortion or just respecting basic women's rights though. Context is key.

that's the thing, i don't get what he was going for with the Weinstein picture. Buy More Synths Or I'll Rape You? it's dumb, not funny, and super tone deaf.

especially with all the heart breaking #MeToo posts, his responses and lack of compassion are..... telling.

lol. yeah. and i have a Harbin Fuzz (pure garbage, just completely useless) and a DLY of his (super basic but i DO like how it tweaks out when pushed to the chip's limit) that i've been trying to sell forever and i guess i'll just donate to someone or something.
