so i made this, i'm kinda hitting a wall in terms of arrangement, where each decision feels kinda arbitrary and i'm not sure if any changes make much difference. is it just my speakers or is the kick too loud? anyways, i only used the MS-1 on this with the exception of eq, compression, and reverb, all of which were just stock ableton effects. https://soundcloud.com/yjk-art/ms-one-and-only i found the biggest limitations were that i am rear end at designing hihats and that the lfo can't sync to clock. otherwise, the experiment leaves me feeling like i don't really need more than one synth. it doesn't even have to be a polysynth, it was kinda cool having control over each separate track. can't deny the importance of envelopes/lfos or a variety of noise generators, though.

New Make Noise product announcement tomorrow. I genuinely hope it's another oscillator, a reverb or something I don't want right now. Because I just filled a skiff and there's no room left A MIRACLE posted:perfect circuit has a 10% off modulars right now.. so i bought the techno system Cool I'm sure you will have fun. If you have any question about the sequencer or the modules don't hesitate because many things are not super intuitive and not explained well in the documentation. (but it's just some minor things. Overall everything is extremely playable and immediate. The sequencer is a favorite of mine despite minor flaws) SpaceGoatFarts fucked around with this message at 21:16 on May 4, 2020 |

The Voice of Labor posted:I wonder how many sh101 mods will work with the berhinger clone. I can't speak to the similarities between circuits, though I feel like those shouldn't be too much trouble to add, though perhaps a couple adaptations will be needed, and the Behringer boards are bound to look different, so you'll have to locate the appropriate solder points yourself. To me the moddability is one of the nice things about the new Behringer clones; feels a lot better mucking about in a $300 clone than on a vintage $1000 they're-not-making-these-anymore synth.

I'm looking at MIDI thru solutions since I need to get two cables out to the box now. Desired routing is DAW -> Keystep via USB -> Thru Box -> Out. What's I'm seeing for basic models is mostly powered vs unpowered, which I'm guessing means the difference between a buffered signal or not?

P sure you could power a buffer comfortably off the midi power line.

The bad news is a sequencer/controller with gate outputs is what I wanted the most to pair with the Harmonic Oscillator (also I already sold my Pressure points) The good news is this is stand alone like the 0 coast. There's no way I'm not pre-ordering this

Are there any good resources on what goes into publishing/selling an album? I’ve been looking into Distrokid and having CDs printed up, but I was thinking there might be more to it. Assuming it doesn’t cost hundreds upon hundreds of dollars, of course.Ok Comboomer posted:In case people are interested in the wonderful world of iPad music making: Ah gently caress, I just paid $29 for my 128gb iPad. I can vouch for it being great though, nice big screen and it plays really well with my Minilab, and it has a headphone port! Way better than using my phone. Fair warning though, if you’re getting an Apple Pencil go for the 1, the 2 only works with the iPad Pro.

It's pretty cool but honestly it's not that big of a progression from Brains + 2x Pressure Points. It has a clock built in which is the most annoying weak point with Brains, and the Time row is interesting, but I'm curious if that then becomes quantized to the nearest 8th/16th note if you use an external clock? The variable strength gate is interesting but they said in the video that there's not much stuff out there that uses one (and you could just do the same thing with a VCA and a channel on Pressure Points). It definitely has more features rolled in, but ultimately seems less flexible than the old version since I don't think you're free to patch the time/strength channels out to whatever other mod source you want

Yeah I feel pretty similar, I guess the appeal is that it works nicely outside of eurorack and specifically with the 0coast. Makes me glad I sold my 0coast to a friend who is getting better use out of it than I did, because if I still had it I would definitely be tempted. Otherwise though it's not blowing my mind.

Oh definitely. It's just as said I sold my PP and came to regret it, and now the rack is full. Also I like that it's outside of the rack. It's a touch controller so it's more convenient. That and they probably fixed the touchplates issues from PP Definitely not a game changer, but still appealing to me. If this wasn't available I would probably free a few HP for a Voltage Multistage But maybe I'll resist the call SpaceGoatFarts fucked around with this message at 06:47 on May 6, 2020 |

Jumped on a sweetwater (?lol) demo deal of the eventide euroddl. It’s definitely a delay line, there’s little in the way of creature comforts or things you’d expect from a modern delay. Would’ve been nice to have attenuators on the inputs. Sounds great though, of course, takes modulation well, you can do KS, flanging, chorus. Boost circuit and filter sound good. FX send to a funky filter is fun, I’ve been using formant filter in the loop. One thing I don’t like is the current draw, thing is so thirsty it was making my old doepfer linear psu brown out.

I have a Minilogue hooked up to my audio interface. If I were to get a Mutable Instruments Clouds module and a little powered rack, plus a few patch cables, would that be enough gear to run my synth through the module? Is there any other module that's absolutely necessary? I want to get into Eurorack, I know an effects thingy is probably a weird place to start, but I already have a fun synth and limited funds.

There's some care necessary because eurorack uses a much higher voltage than line level audio. You'll want an audio input/output module to convert between the devices.

Is there any other module that's absolutely necessary? I want to get into Eurorack, I know an effects thingy is probably a weird place to start, but I already have a fun synth and limited funds. Clouds is really awesome and I've been wanting one forever, but I would say that you might want to investigate a guitar pedal, even a pricey one, that could get you somewhere close. The reason I say is mostly if you're concerned with funds, there's the cliche of people buying one module and then getting into full blown eurorack addiction, and it's totally true. I'm in the middle of it. It happens because once you get the idea of how it works and that the possibilities with it just increase with more modules it seems crazy to not go for them. It depends on what exactly you are trying to achieve sound-wise, and what kind of workflow you are looking for, but the Minilogue sounds awesome through pedals. A cheap option would be a Zoom multistomp, but you could have tons of options with a Strymon, Empress (the ZOIA basically is a self contained modular unit), the Organelle by Critter & Guitari does some really wild effects processing (it even has a Clouds patch) and you get the added benefit of it being a synth/swiss army knife type of unit. It might seem like each one is more expensive, but eurorack really does have a way of adding up and feeding GAS. That's just the angel on my shoulder btw, who is totally lame.

There's also a port of the Clouds firmware in VCV Rack, under the name "Texture Synthesizer" https://vcvrack.com/AudibleInstruments I've given up on VCV Rack since it doesn't play nice with my laptop, but if it works for you, you can keep your physical setup the same and do all the FX on your computer.
