It seems that there are different modes for Midi Start depending upon how it's receiving CV clock and if there's a CV start or not.

Hello everyone,
I bought an Expert Sleepers Disting mk4 with a Tiny MIDI breakout to be able to synchronize my midi pedals (microcosm, meris etc) from my modular CV glock. I'm using the G8 algorithm (CV to Midi) on the Disting. Everything is ok, EXCEPT that my pedals are waiting for a START message to switch from their internal clock to the clock they receive from de Tiny Breakout... and I can't find any way to send them this message. Is there a solution, or did I buy the wrong interface for what I wanted to do? Thanks a lot for your help !

Howdy! There's a soundscape contest going on over at ModWiggler and I created a patch for it that turn out pretty well IMO. So after recording the patch within the limitations of the contest rules, I went crazy adding a load of additional sounds and modulation to it and I really like the result. The one thing I really like here is Rings into 100 Grit into Nautilus. I thought it would be an interesting combo and I think I was right. ;-) I also paired the audio with a hi-def fractal animation created in Artmatic Designer. Cheers!

The contest is here: https://www.modwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=269260

I dig the tone and arrangement, dense, manic, and tristis, yes-please!

Thank you for checking it out. Much appreciated!

-tengo 2 opciones:
ME GUSTA MAS LA OPCION "C"
a) Usaría rytm, akaimpx, minikaoss pad y minicase (con o sin korg NTS)
b) Rytm, akai, minicase con korg nts dentro de la minicase.
C) set 3

A)
-Akai --> minikaoss --> out
-La minikaoss y minicase están en la misma caja de madera.
-Me tendría que hacer una caja de madera a medida, porque el minikaoss pad, se sale 2 cm por arriba... osea que la case sería más "larga" por arriba, y en la zona de los módulos eurorack, le pongo unos taquitos de madera para acortar la distancia, y ahí atornillaría el modulo por la parte de arriba.

-De esta manera estoy sacando lo mínimo de la case.
-Hay que comprar este módulo:
http://ladik.ladik.eu/?page_id=135
Es la ampliación del modulo para secuenciar el plonk.
-Los 2 modulos de ladik manda trig y cv a plonk
-De plonk--> fx aid --> atenuador 1 --> atenuador 2 --> out
-El primer atenuador, le baja bastante volumen. El segundo me servirá de volumen de control en directo.

-La rytm podría mandar midi info a akai también. Y disparar algunas notas, para una transición, p.ej. Para esto se podría dividir la señal midi out, en 2 señales minijack stereo, una para la akai, y otra para la korg nts, y de nts sacar su sync para la minicase.

B) No usaría minikaoss, en su lugar la korg NTS (le descargo otros patches para tener filtro en "modulation")
La nts, estaría dentro de la minicase, en este caso creo que cabe en la case eowave (quizá atornillándolo por arriba, digamos sobresaliendo por arriba de la case... ¿?¿?)
-akai-->nts-->out
-rytm midi out, spliteado en 2 señales stereo
--> un midi para akai (para disparar notas)
--> otro midi para nts, y saca su sync out, para la minicase eurorack sequencer

C)
-malekko envía solo cv:
-un cv, como lfo de fx aid
-otro cv, es lfo de radio (cambia su start, de vez en cuando)
-otro cv, es el lfo de plonk
-otro cv, es el que cambia su sonido (pasar de un patch a otro)
-PICO TRIG:
-2 pistas disponibles: envía triger a plonk (2 pistas disponibles, con sus variaciones)
-envía un clock, especial a malekko: 7 pulsos "si" y un pulso "no", de esta manera, malekko puede estar en modo "pingpong" sequencer
-envía trig a radio
-radio está funcionando como una perc corta (como un pico drum) tiene un lfo, que le cambia su start, así consigo un poco de modulación sutil...

I ordered a module @plektron89 and everything fine.
Well packaged and a Module in very good condition.
Highly recommended seller.

maybe there also will be also a GODZILLA TANG
which - for me - would be everything in STEREO, as i got too many modules with 2 or more (in and) outputs

i wish there was a compact mixer with at least 3x stereo fx send/return

1. I'd consider scrapping both Ochd and Clep Diaz

Clep's are good, I'd be almost tempted to buy a second one even if i don't understand binary or have the time to learn it.

in that case there's always a possibility that I might make it for one or both days...

it's not that far, but it's no that close either - I'm the other side of Manchester and a bit south

-- JimHowell1970

Maybe we need to arrange something in Manchester, I'm south Manchester too :)

and another no more sound sources... 4 is more than enough in this size case!

I also agree that maybe more than 4 channels of sequencing is a good idea - so you can sequence modulation if you feel so inclined

ES8/ES9 - I've got an es8 +es6 but really only use it for audio in and out and clock (& occasional drum triggers) out (using an audio track) - it's a really useful piece of kit of you are combining modular and a computer though and would much rather use that for sequencing than midi

modulation - yes matrix mixer... just do it & I'd probably also go for a 3MIA too - as well as channel 2 & 4 of maths - the 3MIA will effectively be 6 channels of the mid section of maths in this use case - but I'd also not tie Maths up doing basic utilities - it's much more powerful when self patched to do more interesting things - bouncy ball etc etc

complex oscillator - rubicon2 iirc is a great module that can form part of a complex oscillator when patched with another oscillator and a wavefolder - I'd probably go this way as it is more flexible

re people gelling more with clouds than beads - I think at least some of that is down to when clouds was released and there was no competition in that area for a while so people played the shit out of clouds and hence got deeper into it - when beads was released there were other similar modules available from other manufacturers - so to some extent people got beads and compared it to the other granular effects that they had (or were available) and decided to go elsewhere

I agree with what others are saying; I'd shy away from more sound sources and focus more on mixing your modulation sources to make it more complex. I use the Doepfer Matrix Mixer with other offset/attenuation to vary the mix and degree of my modulation sources, and something like the TipTop Miso or the 4MS SISM fills a similar function in a smaller footprint. I would also say injecting a little bit of randomness really keeps things interesting. I know Pams has random waveforms, or I'm sure you can use one of the Distings for the purpose as well, but a little bit of slewed sample and hold or a designated random module like the Wogglebug (or Sloths if you dig the smoother chaos) goes a long way. Mix your modulation sources, run your modulation sources into a VCA and control it with another modulation source, mix and mingle with some feedback maybe (!?), send it to your cutoff or timbre controls and see which motions jive with your sounds. Apart from that, all great stuff in your rack! Have fun!

The belgrave does good pizza too...

I saw something on Instagram earlier this week about the potential for some casual meet ups in Leeds for electronic music makers, but I think it was speculative at the moment

Looks like it’s on 19/20 Aug 2023 - https://divkidvideo.com/modular-meets-leeds-2022/

Cheers. Hopefully Leeds. I know there has been in the past.

A couple suggestions, though I think this looks pretty fun already:

1. I'd consider scrapping both Ochd and Clep Diaz in favor of Pamela's New Workout (or, if you can find it, the new Pro >Workout). Close enough to the same number of modulation sources, but with much more control over them, in the same HP.

Pamela's is a great module, and I imagine I'll end up having it too, but I'm not much of a menu-diving person, and even less if @danmala goal is live-performance-improvisation.
I recommend @danmala to watch the videos of mylarmelodies and the importance that she gives to the knob "that changes everything". I see menu-based modules more as patch and forget.

2. I think BIA is awesome, as ferranadsr says... but Tymp Legio covers about half of the same ground. I don't know that I'd swap out the Moskwa Ostankino combo... but I wonder if you might save HP in other places (say by swapping the Wasp filter for something in 4-6hp, using your last 2hp, etc.) to make room for it.

Regarding BIA, I thought it was for the purely percussion theme, but I didn't notice that you already have Plonk and Tym Legio. But we come back to the same thing, personally BIA is more direct to handle than Plonk.
Another option would be to add a Dixie II+ type oscillator https://www.modulargrid.net/e/intellijel-dixie-ii-
it takes up little space, and you can feed the 4 channels of your Percall with some sound, since from what I see, your voices already incorporate an envelope.

3. One addition that might really be great, given your stated techno use, is the DivKid Mutes module. Being able to manually turn on and off 4 sources of modulation, sound, gates, triggers, etc. is lots of fun.
   -- Shakespeare

++DivKid Mutes, very useful. If you prefer buttons to switches...
https://www.modulargrid.net/e/happy-nerding-4xmute-black

This particular module has been out of stock for some time now. Are there other modules similar to this? I do plan on playing live and I neat it powerful enough to work with the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Premium Edition 600-ohm headphones. I apreciate you help.

maybe ask on the scanlines forum... I don't frequent it, but it's full of video synth people - I just go to the lzx centric places

there's usually a big synth meet annually in Yorkshire ... so maybe wait for that... there'll be loads of filters to play with there

About the 5th iteration of this dual Rackbrute system. This time decided to place all the currently own Buchla in the bottom half and keep the top for my favorite Oscilators, filters and ultilies.

The power is very close to maxing out in the top 6U, but it boots up ok and there are no issues with heat, noise or dropouts, as I've evenly split the load in to 4 groups of

I think a lot of people haven't clicked with Beads they way they did with Clouds... so luckily there are other granular modules out there. I have Beads, a Noise Engineering Versio (which has the Melotus firmware), and Arbhar. I've spent the least time with Arbhar, but so far I'd say my order is Arbhar > NE >/= Beads. That said, the Versio can be whatever you want it to be... filter, granular, one of the best reverbs, an autowah, a wicked distortion, etc. So I'd say if Beads isn't speaking to you, give a Versio a try.

Varigate 8+ is worth looking at to create intricate patterns that can be saved, recalled or generated on the fly

Basek is a wizard with it

I'd like to have the tools that suit my taste for creating drum lines and patterns to craft songs live whether that takes a little setting up or doing it on the fly.

I was wondering how others go about creating their drums for a song, dawless, complete with multiple lines, break beats, etc.

I'm really novice. I know there's some interesting modules out there like the Make Noise Rene Cartesian sequencer, but I haven't come to terms yet with how much versatility I'd get from a module like that, not to mention the case real estate(in fact, my first case is already planned out and full) and perhaps the only "quick and easy" switching of patterns would be the stochastic inspiration generator.

In any case, I'm curious and thought it could be a real learning moment to find out what and how others are crafting their drums.

Expert Sleepers ES9 is incredible for in-the-box composing and recording with Ableton.

A few years ago I hacked some Maxforlive CV tools to work with the ES expanders (ES5, ESX8GT & ESX8CV)
https://maxforlive.com/profile/user/bhenry1790

ES9 + VCV Rack opens up a lot of flexibility for a hybrid system

Malekko Voltage Block might be worth consideration. It can output quantized sequences, but it's a little fiddly if trying to hit precise notes. Similar to Bloom it can be a happy accident machine

Performed on Moog Subharmonicon and two Moog Mother 32's. Effects by Q-Bit Nautilus and Desmodus Versio. Modulation by Vector Space. Stereo filtering, eq, and compression by SoundStage, SCLPL, and MSCL.

\The first thing that jumps out at me is how are you sculpting your modulation? I'd recommend looking at the Happy Nerding 3xMIA, you can mix, mult, invert, attenuate and offset your CV through it which might give you more control.

re: sequencing, I've still not really clicked with marbles (which I'm going to equate to your bloom), and I bought quite a few sequencers (Marbles, 8s, Varigate 4+, bin seq, dnipro Dot, ornaments & crime, mimetic digitalis) but having recently picked up the Metron & Arpitecht and they made the whole case come alive from a sequencing point of view, I now use the mimetic digitalis alongside those two and I feel like I have a lot more control over standard sequencing as well as sequenced modulation.

for four sound sources, I think you might need a bigger case to get the most out of them
-- Sythic

Thanks Sythic, all really useful thoughts! I nearly bought an MIA but couldn't get hold of one. I thought I would use channels 3 and 4 on Maths for the same purpose, but will look for it again.

Will check out Metron and Arpitecht - thank you!

And fear not, I have a 6U rack brute with nothing in it at present - looks like it will be getting used!

I think I’m missing inspiration around modulation. I have plenty of sources (clep diaz being the most recent addition) but struggle to get great results out of them. Any tips / learnings / changes / additions?

Maybe try a mixer to create complex modulation signals (mixing several envelopes, or envelopes and the sequence of voltages that Clep Diaz gives you, LFO's, or maybe some feedback signal.
Clep diaz is also very useful for sequencing the CV of a filter.
For these cases the ideal would be a matrix mixer, since it allows you more than one different output, but if not with a simple mixer you have it too.

I’m not really clicking with Bloom at the moment. I bought it for the evolving / fractal nature of it, but on reflection I think I’m missing a sequencer that gives me more hands on / immediate control. Of course I can use Ableton for this (and I have a Keystep Pro too) but having something else in the rack might open things up for me and means I won’t need to break from the patch to change / modify sequences. Thoughts?

A sequencer that I personally like, relatively small and usable, is the NE Mimetic Digitalis https://www.modulargrid.net/e/noise-engineering-mimetic-digitalis-black

Hi Everyone,

I'd like some input on my current rack. It's the result of around 2 years of building up. I mainly enjoy jamming with it (although there's never enough time) and using it to add sounds to tracks I make in Ableton. I have Electronica and Ambient leanings, but have a broad musical taste. I am a child of the 70s and therefore came of musical age in the late 80s with all the synth sounds you would expect.

I am at an impasse. My rack has evolved over the last two years without a strong vision, and now I'm looking at a nearly full case and feeling that something's missing. Therefore I'd love your input on what you might add / change / do differently.

Here's my thoughts, to help give a picture:

I think I’m missing inspiration around modulation. I have plenty of sources (clep diaz being the most recent addition) but struggle to get great results out of them. Any tips / learnings / changes / additions?

I don’t think I’ve ever really ‘clicked’ with Beads. Aside from a nice reverb I’ve never managed to get into a flow with it or truly ‘play’ it. I’m thinking I should have bought a Morphagene instead to manipulate and warp audio. Any thoughts on this?

I’m not really clicking with Bloom at the moment. I bought it for the evolving / fractal nature of it, but on reflection I think I’m missing a sequencer that gives me more hands on / immediate control. Of course I can use Ableton for this (and I have a Keystep Pro too) but having something else in the rack might open things up for me and means I won’t need to break from the patch to change / modify sequences. Thoughts?

I have a feeling I’d like a complex oscillator. Last Osc bought was the 4ms Ensemble but honestly I haven’t clicked with it (or spent enough time learning it, probably). I seem to struggle with too many switches, buttons and modes and prefer the more ‘nob per function’ approach. I’ve looked at the Rubicon2 and DPO as potentials and would welcome your thoughts!

Recently I’ve been interested in linking more directly with Ableton / Max to feed modulation in and out of the rack (and was therefore looking at the Expert Sleepers ES-8 and 9). I’m not a proficient Max/MSP user but like the generative / logic coding base of it (am a big Autechre fan). Does anyone have any thoughts or advice on getting this going?

Wow – there’s some big questions there, no wonder I’m a bit stuck! I hope the above makes some kind of sense and I welcome your thoughts and observations!

Here’s the link to the rack:

Cheers,
-J

This rack always represents current state - see below for potential upgrades ;-)

Where's the no pass filter?

anybody had recently contacted with dave jones or his company? Try to reach him since a months in terms of purchasing a unit.. would really appreciate any kind of information :)

Anybody know where there is some kind of manual this guy? like what's that button for? Website that says it's a function button. not totally useful. I know the switches change the voltage range for midi output, but I don't know which position is which! Stuff like that.

Surprisingly, tesseract's website references a manual but damn if I can find it anywhere.

That's a good shout. I'm not, I'm in Leeds.

I remember heading to buy my first amp and speakers when I was young. My dad took me to John Lewis where they had a room and you could listen to the different speakers playing tha same music.

I guess something similar would be amazing as it's just so personal. I'm listening to the filters on YouTube but when you have different oscillators going in it's not a direct comparison.

If you're close enough to Bristol, it's well worth taking a trip to Elevator Sounds and having play with the filters in their rack

Yeah - this box seems to be really powerful! But maybe a bit overhead for this use case.
If you are already on the MIDI side of the task a cheaper (and passive) solution for filtering MIDI messages would be the Miditech Midi Thru 4.
I have 2 of those in my non-eurorack-setup and never experienced any problems with it.

EDITED Jan 16th 2023, 10:06

As far as filters go, I assume you want some that don't take up a lot of space or use a lot of current. Some that I have and like that meet those requirements would be:

2) Karltron Steiner Parker
3) Mutable Ripples V2
4) TipTop Forbidden Planet

Thanks, I'll take a look. I was going to go with a simple Pittsburgh Modular mixer. I'll have a look through you suggestions.

that's what drills are for...

-- JimHowell1970

So put the tank outside the case and drill a hole into the back of the case, right?

Yeah I have a Befaco Spring Reverb which I like, it's hooked up to a large tank which I have mounted underneath the table where a lot of my eurorack gear sits. But like the A-199 the RCA connectors are only in back, so I had to leave 2 HP open to run the cables in/out. So keep that in mind. But anyway, I would consider getting the Befaco instead of the A-199, it gives you CV control over both inputs as well as the mix in the same amount of space, and also uses less current from the +12V rail, which in your case is probably a good thing. And I can tell you from experience that the sliders on the Befaco are very "playable". I've had a few spring reverbs and it is the only one I've kept.
-- adaris

Cool, looks good. I'll save for one. The Doepfer is a little noisy so I'm running it through a low pass filter on my studio mixer for now. Not ideal but getting some nice sounds out of the subharmonicon

Enjoy the module :)

Don't know if you're using PNW, but the expander has midi clock out. I'm using a Blokas MidiHub to route clocks etc to pedals, drumboxes, sometimes a DAW... You can filter out anything you don't need your pedals to receive, merge incoming midi messages, use clock dividers, manage midi channels etc. Really powerful little box!

Hi friends,
I'm looking for a eurorack module (or any simple thing) that would allow me to send through midi a CV master clock (from my euroracks modules) to some guitar pedals (Meris, Hologram etc) to sync. In other words, I don't need to send CC messages – only the start, stop and tempo info of a master clock.
Does that exist ? I seem to see all the modules allowing a complete transfer of CC messages, but I have not found anything that can just produce a master clock from CV to midi (TRS or DIN). Thanks for your help!
