After The War posted:The role-playing game of a darkly humorous future. For the most part, I run it with an all-chiptune soundtrack, which gives me an excuse to explore the Commodore demoscene stuff I loved in high school. Right on, go for it! FWIW there's another track on a very similar theme that's almost done, but not quite. I'll post it before too terribly long.

My first DIY Eurorack thing! It's a switched multiple. I crammed in 12 jacks which are divided to banks of 7 + 5. The tight spacing prevents me from using patch cables with thicker plugs but for me it's a good tradeoff. I only have like a handful of short Make Noise cables that I can't use here in every jack.. The panel is made out of a cigar box. It looks nice but as a material it's a little too flimsy and it likely won't last forever so I'll switch to acrylic or something once I get more intimate with the local library's laser cutter.

Some brave souls (like mylarmelodies) use a switched multiple for mixing gates too but I’d rather not take any chances...

You probably won't damage anything, but still, you are effectively patching outputs to outputs and can gently caress some not-so-well-built modules up doing that.

I'm looking at drum machines right now, and I'm mostly interested in the Roland TR-8 and TR-8S. Now the 8S looks pretty cool, but do you guys think it's worth the extra coin?

The 8S comes with all the drum packs pre-installed right? That'd tip me over if I wasn't already horizontal from the lack of green. e- I still hate those x0x buttons though, would it kill them to put the old style ones on there

Just the fact that you can load your own samples and that it supports 8 different patterns at once would have me looking at the 8S really hard.

I went from a tr-8 to a tr-8s and it was worth every extra dollar. Having 8 separate patterns instead of 2 is incredible not to mention everything else it can do

If you want a TR8 get it secondhand because they’re ridiculously cheap, but yeah, the 8S improved pretty much every single thing that was lacking on the 8, so get that.

mrbradlymrmartin posted:yeah i want the lpg that brags about having no vactrols insde Well, vactrols aren't a requirement. Just a tradition. Just for fun here's a demo of the same sequence run through something that isn't technically a LPG but can be patched to behave that way that contains no vactrols, and an extremely vactrol-full LPG. Which is which? https://soundcloud.com/demostench/lpg Oldstench fucked around with this message at 23:37 on Apr 14, 2018 |

mrbradlymrmartin posted:yeah i want the lpg that brags about having no vactrols insde I've found Vactrols to be overrated, or at least very inconsistent. My RxMx's strike input is incredibly short in duration, making it have almost zero "ring" on it so I'm left using an ADSR envelope on the output volume anyway. And the latency on both vactrol-based modules I have make them unsuited for anything fast. YMMV but mine have enough issues where I could see the attraction of a snappy low pass gate I can control nicely, even if I'm not getting one.

the natural gate is really loving good. it's the only LPG i've really gotten along with, and is a lot more flexible than your typical vactrol based LPG (lots of control over the response and such). maybe the optomix i got just had lovely vactrols, but i found that it didn't really have a huge amount of variability; i typically wanted more decay than the DAMP control could give me. it's definitely been a bit overhyped, but IMO it's not entirely unwarranted.

I guess this fits in the synth thread: My google-fu has failed me on this one. Does anyone make a drum pad kit similar to the Alesis Samplepad or CompactKit that ONLY has midi out? Like, literally just 8 or so large-ish drum pads with a USB midi out. I'll be using it with a sampler in a DAW, so I don't need all the sequencer and LED screen bullshit. I found a bunch of cheapo ones on Amazon that look like toys, but pretty much none of them seem to have MIDI out. I've been considering making my own with force-sensitive resistors, but I'd rather just buy one.

Thanks! SpaceGoatFarts posted:Akai mpd218 works great for me as a sampler / drumkit controller over usb midi. Thanks for the rec, but I was actually looking for something that I could use drumsticks with (probably should have mentioned that). I have 16 pads on my midi controller, but I prefer using sticks when recording.

Any recommendations for an analog polysynth with a great resonance filter, useful for creating interesting harmonics? I've been into experimenting with sounds like this lately and was thinking for my next purchase leaning into that.
