Do you have experience Doepfer A-188-1 BBD Series modules?
If you want to make the best Flanger effects, so what Doepfer-188 series module is the right choice?
128, 256, 512 or 1024 stages BBD module?
I know that 1024 can make a flanger effect, but would it be 512, 256, 128 better, deeper, prettier etc.?
(Note. I know that better options are available to make the flanger effect, but if you limit the discussion, however, only Doepher A-188 series.)
The marketplace exists for 2 years now. It's a place where strangers buy and sell stuff over the internet and so I am somewhat amazed that I am hearing very little complains about dubious transactions.
But there are people who had problems. For them it is worth nothing, that it's working pretty fine for everyone else.
In most cases people complain about defective modules, but there are cases where users reported that they never received anything. When two parties are involved there are always two opinions. One shouting fraud, the other shouting liar.
I have no idea how to deal with these situations and I cannot decide who is right and who is not.
I have a bad feeling about banning people on the call of others. I am also not sure if a bad trader thread won't lead to even more drama when users find themselves wrongfully on a list.
I like to hear some opinion.
Can an audio sample be used instead of a VCO to initiate a patch and if so what module would be needed to to convert the line level signal into one loud enough to be used in a modular setting?
Can someone please help me.. Im looking to build myself this exact rack. Already got the mother 32. I was looking to build my own case with the doepfer DIY kit. Will this Kit supply enough power for the modules I want? I think I already know the answer and its yes but please can someone correct me if I am going to come across any problems with these modules and the DIY kit. Thanks!!
I have an idea in my mind, but I'm not sure how to build it into reality. But maybe you could help me. I drafted my current setup (only the relevant modules) in the picture below.
I want to play an audio signal into my modular system, this should be recorded at channel 1 of the DLD for let's say 16 bars, then I want the DLD to play these 16 bars (modulated through the Clouds) and at the same time record the incoming audio signal into channel 2. After another 16 bars the channels should be switched, so that channel 1 is recording again and channel 2 is on playback (modulated through the Erbe-Verb).
What do I need to do/change/add to make this using the current setup?
Any hint is appreciated!
I'm new to Eurorack and i'm planning to buy a 6U case 84HP, however all the planned modules that I've put here in the grid have exceeded 84hp already, so i was just wondering if that would be a problem if were to do it for real. Thanks.
Hey Cyrille,
interesting thingy that you built! Are there any sound examples online where you use an external audio input (maybe some piano playing) and modulated it through the OCS-2 signal path? This would be very interesting to hear.
Best,
Marc
OCS-2 is a digital, semi-modular, analogue style synthesizer.
It is more design as a stand alone synth, but it is also eurorack compatible (50HP).
I think it can be a good way to start a modular setup, or to have a small hardware for performance if you can't move your big eurorack box.
Or even to add 1 synth voice to an already existing setup.
This synth is composed with :
2 VCO providing 15 different waveforms (including few atypical one)
1 VCF : multi-mode, including a 24db/octave low pass resonant filter
1 VCA
1 ADSR
3 LFO : 2 with configurable waveform, 1 with CV frequency control
1 custom CV generator with 4 algorithms : Attack Release, dual LFO, Random, Step
1 audio effects processor with 4 effects : Distortion, Delay, Bitcrush, Waveshaper
1 ring modulator
1 CV controlled mixer for VCO1 and VCO2
2 octaves keyboard with portamento
1 digital matrix to connect signals to modulation faders
1 stereo line-IN with envelope follower and gate control
1 MIDI input : note / velocity / pitch bend / modulation wheel / control change
3 analogue CV IN and 1 GATE IN
1 light sensor
It provide a digital connection matrix, so you don't need cable, it's very compact and even comes with it's own box!!!
Ok, I know, it's digital and many don't like that.
but let's listen to its sound, watch videos and talk about it later.
Actually it's been a big pain for me, having to edit different modules because the uploader doesn't get how the tag system works. I just had to edit a new oscillator which includes an internal quantizing option because the manufacturer/uploader tagged it as "Quantizer" amongst other things.
Is it that difficult to understand that the tagging system is here to help finding modules based on their features and not to promote the features of a module? The question people should be asking themselves when uploading is "Can I use this as a [feature]?" not "Does the module contain a [feature]?". Sheesh.
Can we add a question above the tag area when a new module is created, or a message that prompts people not to over-do the tags? It's irritating.
Hi, I had the same idea for Acidlab M303 and dinsync osc303 ...
I think it should work very well ...
I will probably tested in a distant future :/
Money is rare and projects are not moving fast, unfortunately.
I'll say "Clouds" from Mutable Instruments. Incredible module for sound design stuff, u have a lot of fuctions in this super cool module, u can also "freeze" the sound, and than u can play with it (changing pitch, adding reverb/delay, cut the greeze sample into small pieces and so on).
Yeah. I think that you really need a Clouds
Hi, I am currently building my first modular setup. I am looking to effectively transform samples (music or sound design) from my DAW and transform it with my modular to either compose structures (macro composition) or to shape small sound objects. I am planning a 3 row system. Roughly, the 1st row would be audio inputs/midi and granular modules. 2nd would be a basic synth with functions (VCO, VCF, VCA, maths, ADSR). 3rd row would be the mixer and some playable modules (rene). What are some of the best modules for my purpose? Is that a good approach? This is a long term project so budget is not an issue; I will slowly be buying piece by piece.
Input and tips will be very much appreciated. Thanks for your time. Cheers.
Thanks, but that is the manual for the MK1, this panel uses the MK2 Turing Machine and Pulses expanders which may have different power requirements. The Backpack PCB does not exist for the MK2. Also that number doesn't make a distinction between positive and negative rails. I'd be glad to update the power requirements but a canonical source is needed.
All smooth, seamless transactions. Friendly, patient and helpful communication, fast shipping, reliable folks.
I am pleased to recommend each and everyone of them!
Actually the only really unpleasant experience I've had here on modulargrid was with @kires, who sold me a broken optodist. Since he refused to take it back, I got it repaired by a local technician who fixed several cold solder joints and attested very poor soldering overall (this guy knows his job, he's been working for the likes of Kraftwerk). I submitted the bill to @kires asking if he would accept to at least participate in the costs. In response he treated me a fraudster trying to wangle rebates out of him.
Not recommended!
I'm pretty new to Eurorack and synthesizers in general. But I'v been listening to Brian Eno, Alva Noto, Bohren, Monolake and Murcof for years.
Two month ago, I came to the realisation, that it is possible to make this kind of music myself. Maybe even in a generative way...
So I bought the smallest possible Eurorack setup and an Arturia Beatstep Pro. (Which is fantastic. 8 sequencable trigger Outs, two independent sequencer for CV, Velocity and Gates. And of course probability control.)
Now I'm planning on expanding the System. (Obviously. I've been warned, but... I can't control myself.)
(Also... I'm lusting after a pair of Doepfer A-110-4 Thru Zero Quadrature VCOs, one or two Sloths, an Intellijel Metropolis, an sequential switch, some logic modules and an Pucktronix Oracle, but space is limited. I will make the case maybe a bit wider, so I can include these modules as well.)
What are your thoughts? Am I of balance? What can I omit or replace? Are there more 'Swiss-Army-Knife' modules like the Disting, Peaks and Maths?
Hey There.
I have an Analog four that I want to build a compact "drone/Noise" modular around.
I am curently looking at the snazzy fx drone bank and Make noise DPO.
I dont have any moduls now, so I need to start at the right place.
I am looking for any input on what you peolpe would do?
Ore if anyone have done something cool.
All the best joko..
I just started in the modular world, and need some advice/your opinions.
I have a Doepfer A-100Mc miniature case with de modular dock by Vermona to expand the possibilities with my Mono Lancet. I have 10 HP left in my case and want to buy a module to complete the set(maybe even more as long as it fits). I looked at some LFO's and other modulation sources. But my question is:
Which module would you buy?
I'm extremely happy with buying a PEG from @Kujo. You can't ship a module faster than this man. Highly recommended!
He was also really helpful and empathic after I ran into panic mode when things didn't work as they should have at first (which was simply may fault and a simple power issue in my case). Thanks again, man.
-- Mikey
Thanks Mike for the kind words, I'm happy things turned out fine in the end and that we're both happy with our transactions. It is to be noted as well that Mike was an honest buyer directly calculating the correct shipping amount + paypal fees (before I had the chance to mention it) and including them in the transaction which was very swiftly done. Cheers
Sounds promising! How about some piezos on the piano to get some signals besides audio? Like vibrations from the body and stuff like that... maybe an envelope follower...
Piezo is a nice idea! Envelope follower could work, too - I'll check that out. Thanks!
you can buy an audio interface for the iphone or (what i did) solder yourself a "breakout"-cable with a TRRS jack. Guess you can buy such a cable somewhere...
Just found an iPhone compatible audio interface in my closet. This will work I hope... ;-)
