Migrated to new Server

Moved entire project to a new server platform.
Two weeks work in one sentence.

Updated YouTube API to V3

Embedding of videos in the Module detail pages was using deprecated Google API V2. Says Google.
Updated to V3. Nothing visible changed but Google is pleased again.

At least it is a manufacturer approved sticker.

nice. now we have stickers on modgrid

impressive yes but would be even better if every module was DIY built lol

I thought the optomix was a mixer/vca?

I would add at least 1 mixer

Thank you for replying :) Yeah I've heard other people say that the other modules on the System 10.1 aren't really necessary... So are you happy with the synth box?

This module is already in the database:

I'm kinda new as well (to Eurorack - not synths or modular - had an MFOS Sound Lab and an MS-20 at one point, have a Novation Bass Station 2 and Waldorf Blofeld now), and I got into pricing individual modules, wanting to lean towards getting a two monosynth, and drums lineup. What I found is that the Pittsburgh Synth Box is the same cost as buying an ADSR, LFO, and decent Filter, and hey - free synth taboot. So for the oscillator I really wanted to get into Eurorack over - the Mutable Instruments Braids, I bought the PMSB as it's backend, and a free second, and sub, oscillator. Also picked up a Mutable Peaks for my Kick and Snare. I picked up a 168hp suitcase on eBay for $150, and a Tiptop power supply. Eventually I'll split the two synths in half, maybe get a Maths, and expand the drums, some Tiptop or Mutant stuff. The Pittsburgh stuff to me looks like a good enough of a gateway drug, and made it possible for me to get a better system to start out with than the pricier stuff. Ideally, like everyone on here I imagine, I'm wanting to get this Arturia Beatstep Pro, but God knows when that's coming out.

Hey,
Looking for a new synth I recently stumbled upon the Pittsburgh System 10.1 plus ( http://pittsburghmodular.com/system-101-plus/ ) and now I'm intrigued :D
As a newbie to modular synthesizers I like the idea that I could just use it as a "normal" synthesizer for as long as I like but still have room for expanding it and getting into all the modular stuff...
I'd be really interested to hear some experienced peoples opinions! :)
Would anyone suggest a different set of modules for a really minimal setup in that sort of price range?

thank you very much for any suggestions :)

I just received a Cloq modue from @MarsFace. Straight forward transaction and ultra fast dispatch!
A pleasure to buy from him :)

This is insane.

I've just seen a vid of it self osc, wow!

It's now jumped to the top of my list past the Mysteron - I better get saving...

Thanks guys!

What a wonderful sounding module this is. Best sounding oscillator I have, and there's quite a few in the rack. Such a lovely tone. The sine in this one is worth the price alone.

Loved it!
Check this out!

This is a frac module, right? It would be great if you could add the actual panel! :)

April 2815:
- I have the PCBs at least, but the modules still have to be built:
- - from hexInverter:
4 x Ate Oh Ate Toms
1 x Nein Oh Nein Snare
a 2nd Nein Oh Nein Bass Drum
2 x sympleSeq
1 x seqSquared
my 2nd Jupiter Storm (the 1st one is in my 4U modular, along with my V1.4 Liquid HiHat)

• coming in the mail yet, are:
• • from Ladik:
    1 x Boolean
    1 x Q-010 Easy Quantizer
    1 x S-188 Clock Shuffler

We are up again :)

ModularGrid will be offline due to maintenance on 28 Apr. 11.00 CET. Might take a couple of hours, so if you have some urgent planning needs, do them now!

One of the most interesting things with this module I have found is the ability for self oscillation that is pretty undocumented.

I was 100% sold after a demo of it due to this. It's a pretty unique creative tool in itself with this

Mark as private. Don't turn modulargrid into scrapyard

Thank you for your feedback, I'm not looking for perfection but creativity. MN seems to be my main veil to this objective!

Really appreciate your message.

Cheers!

Thank you inuat

It's a complex composition

Nebulae
Loops a sample in the beginning

Arturia's beat step
Sequences
Braids and sto
Also mutable struthi
Effects are by the rt 60

nice video personator.
did you use only the rene for sequencing the hole parts . ?

and concancon..
do you think i should replace the deopfer a-131 by the manhattan vca?

thanks for help

Yes, it is one of those modules you'll probably never want to sell - I won't for sure. ;)
The character of the basic reverb sounds like a well executed delay tank - not bad at all, though there may be better ("more expensive") sounding reverb algorithms available. But the unique, outstanding aspect of this module is the practically artifact-free CV-modulation of every parameter, which makes it so valuable in the modular context.
Clouds is very different, conceptually. I did not receive my unit yet, so I can't compare its reverb.

It was in their rack at Messe. I would assume maybe late summer. They said "not happening in a month or two" in this video at 1:51

EDITED Apr 25th 2015, 01:16

Affirmative :)

So with this I could hook my guitar into INSTR IN then from IMPORT patch to another modular and back to EXPORT and out through LINE OUT to my amplifier creating my costume FX pedals?

No problem at all! I just remembered that they were indeed there somewhere. And thanks for asking first before creating duplicates. It's a big help in keeping things tidy.

Thank you very much Exper.

I was unable to find these as I searched via the 'module finder', 'manufacturer' option. And these do not show up in that search.

Again, my thanks :)

Greetings,

And apologies for not knowing which forum to post this in. But ModularGrid is missing at least two eurorack modules from Synthrotek (both of which I own)

They are :

and

Hope these get added and my thanks :)

LIve set recorded at Volt Divers 4.11.15 - all modular:

Live recording of my set at Volt Divers 4.11.15:

hey looks nice. might want to consider getting a logarithmic or semi-logarithmic vca, e.g., manhattan analog, for audio duties. it will sound better! check the mmg before you get it as well.

Looks good so far

I've learned a lot in a few months

I've got a small setup too
Check out my video

Ambient beginning techno ending
Mathis has been a great module for me
Finally understanding rene

The music in this video was created using the Qu-bit nebulae, mutable instruments braids and the Make Noise STO.
Also Roland TR8
And effects pedals

Subtractive?? More like ATTRACTIVE! Nah but I realize it's there's not much subtractive synthesis in here, but idc

On the detail page of the module you should find a link Edit Module (top right).
For now I have unlisted the module.

I’m relatively new to the modular world and currently I’m looking for a starter system to begin my adventure. Since I know something about analog synthesis, but nog being a real tech head, I'd like to go for a pre-configured system with some room te expand.

With that in mind, this Doepfer A-100 Mini System appealed to me:

http://www.dv247.com/keyboards-and-midi/doepfer-a-100-mini-system--210720

This system meets my budget and it seems to contain some essential modules. I’ve searched around the Modular Grid forums but couldn’t find any topic about this particular system.
I’m wondering if there are people out here that have bought this system or have build a system similar to this one. Apart form that, I’d like to know what you experienced modular heads think about it.

Would this be a wise choice in my case and is it good value for money?

Thanks in advance.

I submitted Synthrotek Combine OR module. Being a noob, I realised AFTER I sbmit the picture that it was not suitable to be used in the racks.
How can I correct that?
I edited a pic so it should be OK now but I don't want to add a thiord instance of this module....

Hey there!
I'm quite new too in the modular world too, but if you want to use your effects pedal you need an attenuator and an amplifier, to reduce the signal from the modular and then to re-amp it from the pedals, there are thousands of different modules and some of them are made especially for using guitars pedals (es. Malekko SND\RTN).

Hope it's clear enough and it will help you!

Hi guys

I'm trying to set up my first rack and could need some advice. I own an Arturia MiniBrute which I would like to use as keyboard.
I also own a few FX pedals (MemoryBoy Delay, Freeze, Phaser, Flanger), that's why I don't have any FX in my rack yet.
I'm planning on buying the Doepfer A110LCB which has enough space for a start and can be expanded easily.

I tried to chose parts that have more than one function and/or make sense when adding modules in the future.

Right now it consists of the following elements:

Inetllijel Dixie 2 VCO/LFO
Bastl Instruments Skis Dual Delay / VCA
Doepfer A-124 Wasp Filter
Doepfer A-140 ADSR
Manhattan Analog Three Channel Mixer

With the case included I could stay right under a thousand bucks, but I'm sure I forgot something crucial or did something that makes no sense. :)

Here is my rack:

Looking forward to your thoughts!

Cheers

use the S&H on the cv in on the LPG or VCO

those links didnt work
look for raul's world of synth and divkid on youtube a good resource to learn from

no worries
check out this youtube chanel lots of vids to learn from

and great demos on this one

Nice one!!
I followed your advice and couldn't quite get the random effect. I then put the signal through the LPG, adjusted the Mod, Freq & Resonance and BINGO!!
Trial and error, but that's cool with me. All part of the fun of it.
Thank you very much for the nudge.
I'm glad you added the "i.e feed it a square wave" bit. Wasn't quite sure what clocking an input meant.

Cheers MarsFace!!
