I need this one!


thank you - that was indeed it - cheers!


The icon that looks like a toolbox next to the star that lets your rate modules.
You can add and remove modules to your collection like that. Works in the module finder and in the rack view. You probably just misclicked at some point.


Bought from these members, and everything was perfect:
@yoyaforza
@loorenz
@C3REAL
@bj_gzp
@A.S.
@Bohler

@vjaz


Where can we find more info?



it says on my user page i have one module in my collection.

i dont even own this module though and am unaware of how it got there or how to edit my modules in my "collection"

anyone know what's up with this??

thanks

Am I supposed to post here about ours ? Or in the good/bad traders thread ? Need update man ...


Thread: XAOC BATUMI

Well if you think you need more modulation then sure go ahead. That's partly what's so great about the Batumi.
I wouldn't really compare the Batumi with Peaks. Heh one might really get the idea that you don't exatly know what you're looking for but hey you nonetheless got my full support there haha~~


Thread: XAOC BATUMI

yes unless you need that 808-style kick and snare generator that the peaks has ... batumi cant do kicks ;)

as always the right answer is: the module that does the job you need done best.
if you dont know what job you'll need a new module for, then you dont need a new module =)


This is an MOTM-format module, not Eurorack.



Thread: XAOC BATUMI

Hi , i m thinking about my next module , so Batumi will be a good choice ? or MI PEAKS ?

Although, I am considering triggering the Bitbox with an AKAI MPD218.


Bought a Buck Modular Drumfuck from @davidjames

Initiated the conversation just 3 days ago or so. Had the module shipped by the next day, arrived today in perfect condition. He sent a video of the module in action, communicated throughout the whole process, and in general was great to work with


You'll get more answers @ muffwiggler forums


what do u think, do i have enough envelope generators? that rampage makes only two i suppose? should i get an Quadra/PEG into the mix?


Thread: Waldorf KB37

Ahh I see what you mean!! I was unclear in what I mean. I want to make a rack on here - Modular Grid - look like a KB37 I have a kb37 I don't want to make an imitation of it.

The sound you hear is that which you are listening for


Thread: Waldorf KB37

It has rails already - not sure why I'd need to buy new ones?

I bought a Turing Machine MK2 plus the Pulses and Volts expanders from @granville. He promptly shipped the modules which were carefully packaged and were in perfect condition. Very reliable!


Thread: Waldorf KB37

Apparently it can house up to 107HP
https://waldorfmusic.com/en/kb37

To get this width you would need to buy 1m rails and cut them to measure. Otherwise, you can get a Make Noise powered skiff and fit a spacers on the sides and have a bit more than the nominal 104HP.
Otherwise, if the keyboard is a must for your requirements, look at the WMD Monolith.


Thread: Sonenrack

More modulation sources for sure. The quad ADSR is great, but you've got a lot of audio sources that will greatly benefit from modulation. Also, you've got a lot of clock/logic signals, but I'm not seeing many modules that benefit from clocks. A sequencer, turing machine, clocked random source, or clocked LFOs would take great advantage of all those clocks.


Thread: Waldorf KB37

Is there a way to make a rack that looks like the KN37? And does anyone know the exact hp of the rack part of the KB37?

from what i can see here, everybody is doing good trades. nah, i don't believe there are rogue traders in this community. peoples faith is the real currency traded in these modular transactions right? what effect does a rogue trader, if there is one and i'm not saying there is, have on the community as a whole or your supporting the community by buying and selling kit ? how many wigglers use friends and family to pay for kit, taking a leap of faith with the wiggler in the community selling stuff they don't want anymore.

I usually ask for MW account or some other credible enough resource, easy to double check there and see what kind of stuff that person is posting, I've done dozens of buys here and no problems so far


Big thanks to @Virgil for a beautiful build of the Ornament & Crime module. Quick shipping and good communication. Will definitely consider trading again.


Thread: Sonenrack

looks solid, maybe add some more mixer/vca for all those voices to be able to modulate/mix them better.
also, passive mults waste hp in my opinion, just get stackcables or "fly" your passive mults between the cables =)


Thread: Sonenrack

I suggest adding DATA by Mordax and mixer(s).


Is everything connected properly?


Its just a project for a front pannel to a ns1 soundmachine synth.


Thread: 52hp Atom

Its my handmade case for my second voice to use thru micro brute, gives me a massive agressive bass, the atom koe vco drift a lot but that fact increases the harmonics mixed with micro brute vco, and i added a simple delay sounds great.


Thread: 104hp mixer

Its my mixer rack into a moog 104hp case, to use with not just with my main rack but also with my volcas, monotribes, po-12 or my dual ns soundmachines and some pedals too.


Thread: 98hp Current

Its my current main rack. Im trying to not spend too much money :-).


Thanks for your input! I've switched the Uscale2 with the first edition and added a double multiplier.

The SQ-1 is an external device and I really want to keep the system as simple as possible, e.i. just the rack and a mixer.

For example the Soundcraft EF12 is an analogue mixer with Lexicon effects and 12 mono inputs, which should be enough to create a coherent, musical, mix. So I actually don't even really need the delay module, but I'll leave it in for now.

This drum rack is going to be a unit in a bigger system which may have dedicated line-outs for each voice, with a maximum of 12 voices, but I'm still not sure if that's feasable or necessary.

At least now I have a proper starting point. If you have any tips or suggestions, I'm all ears!


that first rack totally is fine and easily functional with something like a SQ-1 for the VCO work!
mixing on a small mixer is easy enough Ive had fun doing the same on an old BX-8, a CR-1604 also a few others. can be hard to get the gain down enough to not always have distorted drums sometimes.


Rows 1 & 2 are my current system, and rows 3 & 4 are going to be a mix of Intellijel 1U (row 3) and Erthenvar/Pulp Logic (row 4)

-- DJMaytag

Hey just a heads up, not sure if you know this or not, but the Intellijel 1U modules only fit in Intellijel racks (they're slightly smaller then everyone else's 1U modules).
-- Osten

Yes, I am aware of this. I was going to use two different brackets, a 1U Intellijel bracket for row 3, and a 1U Erthenvar/PulpLogic bracket for row 4. I'll probably have to DIY a bracket for the Intellijel row, since no one currently sells an individual 1U bracket for Intellijel sized modules.

Thread: For Sale

Both? But it might be easier to sell everything separately.


Unless you plan on buying/constructing a powered case you definitely need a power supply module. Thats all I got.


I think a Beatstep Pro would be a good addition for sequencing everything and melodies, you probably already know the O-Coast has midi and cool midi functionalities.

Akemie's Castle is in my opinion is the king of FM. I like the whats going on but not sure how your using the DSP.

I totally agree on using the best tools for the job and that I am also limiting myself but I feel I should explain more in-depth of what this rack is. This rack was designed with three goals in mind: portability, playability and minimal computer interaction. The main idea behind this rack is using audio as the oscillator and everything else is used to modulate, transform, time stretch. sequence and organize that audio in real time. A live hip hop modular dj system so to speak. I could just use a computer, MPC, drum machine, turntable but what I really like about modular is the unpredictability and being able to modulate everything, even the clock.


I've added the Intellijel Uscale to controle the VCO and a multiplier for good measure. The delay isn't strictly necessary because of the mixer's onboard effects, so that would give me another 4HP for something I might have overlooked.

I don't need MIDI because I want to move away from laptops/software. The idea is to separate every audiostream from eachother as much as possible and patch those into an analogue 16-channel mixer and have a palet of sound available to me to mix into something coherent.

Mixing, attenuation and effects would all be done on the mixer, which means that I need to keep the signal flow as tight as possible: the smallest package that will give me the most flexibility.

It's but a concept though. Can you think of any reason this is a silly idea?


longtime lurker, now i want to get real ;)

since i have room for it i'll start with an 9U 126HP Synthrack Case to not have to think about space for a long time and dont get that "i want to fill that hole" itch, i just want to focus on exploring the modules and make music.

i'm researching since a few weeks where i should start, here is my draft of Stage 1:
ModularGrid Rack

my main workflow atm is around cubase and i like to sequence my standalone boxes (minitaur, dx200, xoxbox) with midi out of an NI maschine vst which runs in cubase, so i have a nice controller on my desk which i can play live ;)

with yarns, the modular should connect to my momentary workflow.

since i can do a lot of the standard substractive sounds good enough with serum on my computer, i want to focus on more experimental stuff and things i cant do with cubase+vst synths.

to the main questions:
- is this a good starter rig?
- have i thought of everything? (enough attenuators, vca's, something else?)

to forecast some direction:
if i have explored the rubicon/dixie combo well enough and have spent my time discovering what i can do with the rampage i think about exploring rene, rings and sisters in Stage 2 as well as adding a nice random source and a quantizer:
ModularGrid Rack

somewhere down the line i really want a morphagene but i dont want to have it sitting alone and doing nothing, it needs friends to play with first =)

PS: if you click on my name you can see a totally crazy "stage3" that i wont be able to afford in forever and will change for sure before i will get to it. just if you are curious in which direction my personal interests have taken the researching-trip so far. maybe you have nice ideas and inspirations for me to research? you know crazy modules that i maybe havent thought about? please tell me ;D


Thread: Camuel

what about your opinion on the mutant bd9 vs the modbase? i only know its sound from the xbase09, is it compareable? i am new to eurorack ;)

u sure you dont need a morphagene in there somewhere? xD


Thread: Camuel

who needs envelope generators anyways
