Yeah that's pretty cool, but is there really an advantage to it vs a cheap laptop with a usb midi cable? Trackers, at least newer stuff like renoise, can send midi right?

im_sorry posted:I imagine it costs a fair amount... what's the advantage of using this over an okay laptop running Renoise? Can it even use VSTs? Likely will be live performance orientated options and the integrated controllerfor all the shortcuts. Laptop will only get you so far until you're chaining controllers to it i'd imagine. We'll have to see how featured their tracker is compared to Renoise. It took a long time just to get randomization plocks into it. Philthy fucked around with this message at 01:37 on Mar 4, 2020 |

Sounds I discovered in my synth today: 1. Crickets 2. Backwards 3. Katanas 4. Satan 5. A not bad recipe for FM bass with two operators https://soundcloud.com/user-44349750/fm-bass i abused my roller and also put something in to make your eyes roll sorry not sorry

Is there a good way to import a graph (say, the last 24 hours of the stock market or whatever), into something you could use for source material in a wavetable synthesizer? I think this could be useful for the current Bonerjams compilation.

Maybe something Virtual ANS-related? The dude who developed V ANS has lots of little apps that will generate sound from drawings and photos and barcodes and poo poo, if you have iOS. Edit: Win/Linux/Android/Mac too https://warmplace.ru/soft/ans/

1) Get the raw data for the graph 2) Import into MATLAB 3) Export as wav https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/import_export/read-and-get-information-about-audio-files.html Free option: 1) Get the raw data for the graph 2) Import into R 3) Export as wav https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/tuneR/versions/1.3.3/topics/writeWave Also this sounds awesome, I'd be happy to do this for you if you can get me the data.

Sometimes people post graphs to the Doomsday Economics thread in Cspam, and some of them look like they'd make good waveforms for wavetable synthesis. Things like  ,  , and numerous similar graphs. However, unless your brain has already crackpinged, I don't recommend reading the thread yourself.

https://youtu.be/zVKmZuSL5ag The 909 clone is fine but I wanna draw attention to the “Pro-Four” next to him. I’m curious about people’s thoughts regarding semi-modular vs modules in Eurorack. Where does it make more sense to go with more than one semi-mod synth vs multiple VCOs, etc (barring availability/existence, for example- in this case there are no stand-alone pro-one modules)? I guess my tldr question is when is it better to go with four copies of the same semi modular synth vs just filling that space with individual modules? I see all of these setups where people have 2-3 Mother32s s or Behringer D’s and I wonder where the value-add cutoff is where you choose to buy two M32s rather than an M32 plus an extra Moog-clone vco or whatever. I guess I need to familiarize myself a lot more with modular/monosynth thinking. My first impulse when looking at the Behringer 100/15/etc modules is “I wanna get like twenty voices and make a giant parallel drone monstrosity”. Now, literally nobody does that with modular. Until literally this year it’s been too expensive and niche and cost-prohibitive. You’d have to fabricate your own modules. But like really- how would a “cost is not a problem anymore” moog clone with fifty voices work? What would you even do with it? Can the modular workflow even work with that?

When you're browsing for a cheap alternative and find the real deal for the same price of a kit. It was a tough choice to go smaller or full size, and I decided full size would be worth it for this module.  echinopsis posted:really liked this mate Thank you!

Electric Bugaloo posted:Where does it make more sense to go with more than one semi-mod synth vs multiple VCOs, etc (barring availability/existence, for example- in this case there are no stand-alone pro-one modules)? A VCO is just the part that outputs the waveforms. Adding a whole Mother 32 gives you VCO, VCF, VCA, Sequencer.... Just adding another VCO you would have to control it with something (the mother 32 playing the same sequence) and that would supplement the sound to make it more complex but having another semi modular gives you another complete independent voice. Syncing up two M32s would allow you to have two sequencers playing together, just adding a VCO would make the single Mother sound more interesting with an additional sound mixed with it. For the price of many modules, a Mother 32 gives you a lot more functionality (albeit limited in a lot of places) but the price gives you a full synth voice for cheap compared to what you'd need as separate modules. I think that's why Eurorack is such a trap. I think people don't realize how limited a single module can be and adding more functions is at least $100 plus more dollars and it can add up quick. The Intellijel Atlantis is sorta similar to the mother 32 in that it is a full synth voice in a single module (modeled after the SH101). It doesn't have a sequencer or MIDI input built in, so I think the mother 32 really attracts people for those reason. A sequencer like what the M32 has for a eurorack setup alone would probably be about as expensive as the Mother 32 on it's own so they really packed a ton of features into the Mother 32 for a great price.

M32 is a great starting place, and enough mults/stackable cables and some creative patching and you can do some big dumb drone stuff no problem with only a couple more modules.

If you really enjoy the voicing of the semi-modular and you want to go polyphonic or start using each VCO an octave up and below at the same time you would likely buy multiples like the video above. You could simply go buy a pile of modular VCO kits, multi-envelope generators, multi-VCAs that use the same chip, but you're not guaranteed to get the exact sound. You might be able to do it cheaper, you might not. In the video above if you see someone with a stack like that they made the decision that they are happy with the complete chain and went all in. And they have enough desk space and money to do it, also. Plugged Marbles in and went to see how it can make a nice bassline. Beat and clock from Digitakt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Djl6mfMyzhw I.. I'm almost out of room in my rack. I may do the dual NiftyCASE setup and just put all the Mutables/Clones in the top tier and everything else in the bottom. Or maybe make my own. I've got ideas, but hosed if I have any space.

I may do the dual NiftyCASE setup and just put all the Mutables/Clones in the top tier and everything else in the bottom. Don't. Just embrace that you are now an eurocrack addict and accept that the number 1 advice (get a bigger case) is pure wisdom from people who took the same road before you. You might continue to delude yourself that you won't keep buying and making modules forever, but it's just delaying for a few months the inevitable moment where you sell a kidney to finance your 5th 12U rack. Deep down you can feel you want a bigger case, so don't act like we don't know you will eventually get one. You are one of us now. One one us. Joking, there's no best way to go. Just have fun and try to keep both of your kidneys. Good luck.

Electric Bugaloo posted:https://youtu.be/zVKmZuSL5ag Pretty sure 99% of the cases, semi-modulars in eurorack is because semi are cheaper gateways into modulars so people start with them and later integrate them in a rack. I started with the 0 coast. Never tried to integrate it in a rack though, those hp are too precious

Yeah, the idea was to keep a small contained synth that I can customize by removing x y x to make room for a b c and keep shuffling. I could still do this honestly, and I may, but having all of the modules all of the time is so powerful. Modular is cool as hell but it may lead to me remodeling one of my closets to the left of my desk area. I don't need dress clothes for my current job. I am going to toss all that poo poo in the trash for the sound gods.

Is it the limited, perhaps more focused, interface on the cycles or just the price that's the appeal over a digitone? I'm not hearing anything out of it that the tone couldn't do.

I'm stoked as heck with the sounds I'm getting from the volca drum for my sort of minimal take on classic techno/electro, but I wish they'd included a basic filter of some sort. Has anyone tried running a synth or drum machine through a guitar or bass envelope filter/follower pedal? I'm using the stereo outs as dual mono so maybe I'll chuck one of those inline? Otherwise sell me on a cheap standalone filter
