Been shuffling things around in this rack for a while now - I think it's just about planned-out enough. Any alterations to suggest?

Those look much more capable than the doepfer/PM combo. Reworked...
Good points. Be aware, the Pittsburgh one only outputs 1/4 note clocks. Strange decision there.
I'm using the Mutable Instruments Yarns along with other clock modules like Pamela's Workout. Yarns can control a LOT. It might even be less or about the same as the 2 interfaces. Yet it can do poly modes, extensive clock and trigger modes, arpeggiation and up to 4 sequences. It's pretty insane for what it can provide in 12hp.
Yep. And for shameless self promotion: skip one interface and reserve the space for an Ultima Ratio, a clock divider which is build for such purposes and will be available soon

Depends on the available CV outputs. You are right, this can be a bottleneck.
When I started modular I wanted to control everything via MIDI but very quickly lost my interest in it.
But if you using a DAW and a Multi Out Audio Interface to sequence are you aware about the PlugIn solutions like Silent Way?
For DAW sync you can also just output an audio click track, needs no MIDI to do so.

The goal pf the second one is to be able to set and modify delay and reverb time and sync with bpm easily, and still play the synth via external controller. Can this be accomplished with 1?
Looks like a solid eastcoast rack. Two MIDI interfaces?

Because the traffic is still pretty low here, I should probably just post my stuff in a single thread that I can just add to. I tried to edit the title of one of the existing ones, but I wasn't able to. So forgive me posting one more, which at this point, contains stuff that I did this weekend.
these are soundcloud 'playlists', so they should keep on playing through the tracks. If they don't (which would happen to some people on mw), let me know.

Inaudible. Plugged this Blue Lantern Synth to "Line Level" in both a line level jack and a normal channel on my mixer with gain maxed out and because the output is so quiet, there's a horrible amount of noise. Don't recommend this module, it's useless.
In the meantime my kit arrived and I had a blast building this!
Everything is very well layouted and I was able to get it working on first try!

I agree with the changes. At least for now. The other forum does suffer from format separation I think, as people will stick to what they know. That said, not looking forward to Buchla discussions that will only make me wish I had some. :)
The goal is to merge discussions into the forum in a way 90% of MG users won't even notice while given the other 10% who care better tools to use.

This happened today!
Since the comments from the individual module/patches/rack pages will be aggregated in the forum I had to change the forum structure to make this happen. That means:
No more format specific forums
As 1 or 2 other people have said, and I have mentioned privately, I really think that there should be a section where one can talk about more general music related topics - whether about more philosophical issues, or about compositional methods, etc, etc.
-- Nelson BaboonI agree with nelson, a composition forum would be cool!
-- Wiktorion
Since the Forum is still very weak by now can we use the Modular Discussion Index for that? Perhaps I can just find a better name for it?

Discussions are gone. Two commenting sections where overkill.
You can still comment on module/patches/racks but everything will be piped into the forum.
This keeps the code base slim.
And also every feature of the forum is now available in the former discussion pages like the search function, media embeds, emoticons and quotes.

Loosely based on Richard Devines creature patch (His system isnt exactly the same and also I decided to tweek it a little anyway). I'm replicating it as learning experience more than anything.
Using the CV Bus to mix the signal to the mono output.
The in and out on the Echophon are going to Z-DSP with Halls of Valhalla card
Here is a recording sample, but its different everytime:
I'm a bit sad, because it seems that Richard is cheating with this patch-as his system isnt strictly speaking a "shared system" for his system does away with the moddemix in favour of second optimix and he also has an added function module. Which kinda defeats the whole point of the shared system idea.
input 2 of mixer is from Arp noise fully open
inputs to gate and CV are from kenton USB solo
demo recorded
Toggle A-170 time range to bring synth sound in and out
PM Filter QCV & FCV fully counterclockwise
Cutoff ~2 o'clock
wiggle Z4000 decay knob!
moving delay clock knob is awesome!
reference track: eurorack_52mono.aif
quadlfo in 4lfo mode
1st and 2nd lfos very slow
4th lfo same as echophon clock
3rd lfo 1/2 of 4th lfo (more or less)
notes: if you engage maths' 4th channel Cycle mode , you get fuller tone (not plucked)
wiggling reneé's y-cv attenuator brings variation in the sequence
turning Triatt's second knob fully CW brings cascading, out of tone pitches in the sequenced delays
There are several timbres:
227e A and C ate the Balanced Modulator (Lower part of 285e)
227e B is Bass from 261e, first filtered (B), then VCA'd (A) through 292e
227e D is timbrally very rich, a great complement to (and the same timing as) the bass in 227e B.
281e A goes to 292e A, B, D and Balanced Modulator Timbre input
281e C is the main clock
the 227e's submixer's "in th mix" is disabled to avoid bleed-through, but must be enabled to get the signal from the 207e's output
DON'T change the timing (281e C)!
play slowly with the sequencer (manually) on the 291e. The sequencer is also the same timing as Bass (282e C)
To Do:
tweak the 291e for a more convincing sequence
Hi guys - this is a first pass at learning how to use this site - very cool, eh? I made a quick patch, using the new Oakley modules we just received. I documented the patch as you can see, and uploaded an audio example of it to Soundcloud - enjoy!
This is the patch of the lead synth.
