This was deliberate. The demos by Morphor were so subtle, I wanted to demonstrate how much this module can stretch, while giving a general sense of its sound character and how the controls respond. If you want a more musical demo here is a track I made for that purpose: on.soundcloud.com/YBwjW7LfDHMoxqhu5

Agree. It’s hard to discern the dry signal from the wet. Matter of fact, very few can do proper demos. I think one should start with the dry signal and start adding wet signal slowly, tweak and explaining… We’ll to make a long story short, learn from Divkid!

Thanks for all the patronising comments. This was meant to be a quick demo to show how it sounds, not an in-depth, synthfluencer level video. Feel free to use your own time to make your own videos.

@@puscha Well I liked your approach. By pushing the parameters harder, it gave a clear indication of what each one actually does. Few people would actually use it like this but it helps us understand the module.

​@@simonriley765Thanks for saying so, really appreciate it. That is exactly what I wanted to do with this quick video.

Thank you! I'll get there soon enough. Slowed down since becoming a Dad but finding more time for music now he's in daycare a couple of days a week. Currently making a video about fixed filter banks.

You will need a monome grid and ansible module, along with a USB A to B cable :)

@@puscha thx！so what ansible module i need to have？ such like？

@@raneflewit6250 ansible is the name of the module, it comes stock with 3 different apps, the one I'm using in this video is kria.

@@puschawhere can i buy？it seem no available now

me too!

You could use a dummy cable in the clock input, mute the channels, or if you go into the scales page, the first four rows in the first column will start/stop each channel - it's actually turning on a functionality that changes each channel to another teletype (I'm pretty sure!) but works if you want to individually stop each channel running. Otherwise you will have to use an external clock that has start/stop, or use a switch to A/B a clock with nothing.

You can do 4 tracks of 16 steps, yes. You can set this up by simply syncing it to your clock and then setting each track's length to 16. Then if you add ratchets they will be divided down within each step from 2 to 5, so this would be more to add detail and flavour than for getting basic 4/4 patterns.

I did record a good 20 minutes of it :)

Haha good spotting! It is, albeit this is the raw, unedited, unmixed and unmastered version :) Took me ages to edit it down to 6 minutes!

Oh yeah, full credit to both sides of the creative process here. A lovely surprise to hear from the Morphagene Compositions thread on MW!

I like it a lot! I use it as my master clock as much as I do for random gates and CV. It's really easy to use and I love being able to loop random sequences.

Thank you, and nice! Would be interested to hear what you do with yours.

@@puscha Soon! Is most of that feedback ambience coming from the Multi-Delay? I'm very intrigued by that module. Also, you inspired me to swap out my knobs for Verbos/Buchla style. Looks awesome on the Joranalogue modules.

@@nickjones5641 It's a mix of things, Multi-Delay with Lubadh loops, there's DLD hidden in there, long slow envelopes, and some reverb at the end of chain. And agree! They do look good on the Joranalog modules. Less so for Instruo but I wanted it to match anyway haha.

@@puscha sorry for the dorky gear question, but what is that end-of-chain reverb?

@@alexanderkahn Dorky gear questions are always welcome! I use an OTO Machines BAM.

Thanks so much! More hopefully soon :)

Thank you <3

Thanks so much.

Thank you! I use a 2hp nearness module (AKA Txn) for summed, panned mixing. The QMMG, Optomix and Sisters are useful for mixing too, when needed. I replaced my PNW with a Tempi, much happier with it! I wanted something immediate and playable. It also can mute the outputs, which I use all the time.

@@puscha thanks man. That’s incredibly valuable for me. I’ll try to do my next step learning from your evolution. What’s your setup nowadays?

@@Hessencemusic You're very welcome! I am currently waiting for a few things in the mail, but as soon as they arrive this system will look like this: www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/1668297 My other system is currently like this: www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/1590586

Thanks so much!

Thank you! Yeah hard to decide, I guess think about what features you're after and what you've already got. I like using as few manufacturers as possible (taking into consideration "essentials" for me) as they tend to play better together. So that could be a start point. I haven't tried the ones you've listed, but Vortices is really nice and the VCA expander it comes with is super handy and sounds great to my ears. If I didn't have that I'd personally go with the Scan & Pan, since I like Verbos modules and the fact that it can saturate too.

I'm not sure if there is at this stage, But keep an eye out on the trade section of llllllll.co (have to be a member with at least 10 posts to access it, I'm pretty sure) as well as sign up for updates from monome when they restock. You'll find one sooner or later!

Thank you! It's actually a pretty straightforward, mostly subractive patch. The Mindphaser is using different outputs to create some of those clicking percussive sounds along with bassline, with some help from a Make Noise FxDf. Beads is running through QMMG for some chord stab kind of sounds when pinged, or pads when opened up.

You're so welcome, hope it's a help for you on your modular journey :)

Thank you :)

@@puscha I wonder if verbos harmonic oscillator worth it.. I've read a lot of user claiming because lack of quality control in Verbos modules... :S

@@Hessencemusic Totally worth it! Never had any issues with any of my Verbos modules, and I have heaps of them. Just be sure to have a good power supply. I think the majority of people don't have any issues.

@@puscha Then I'll probably start with Scan and pan.. I need some VCA and it seems to be really cool. BTW, I own a joranalogue compare module, and I'd like to replace its knob to ones like yours with verbos style, could you please tell me where do you buy them and what's the specifications of joranalogue knob that need to be fit with the replacement? thanks a lot. your rack looks amazing.

@@Hessencemusic Nice, good start. And thanks! You can buy the knobs at Thonk, they are listed on there as Rogan RB knobs. You may need to get a small hex allen key to go with them, which Thonk also sell.

Thank you :)

It's a monome grid, it plugs into their ansible module, and in this case is running the kria app :)

@@puscha Where can i get one and can it be used as 128 steps sequencer for my modular?

@@christiangreven8991 monome.org and yes you can in a roundabout way using meta-sequence, which is kind of like a song mode for stringing together up to 16 16-step sequences. I think it's much more interesting to find oher ways to make 16-step sequences more interesting with it over having more steps though, IMO

Thank you :)

Xaoc Odessa combined with filtered noise from Verbos Noise & Filter, and some feedback processing running back into it too. I used Joranalogue Morph 4 as the main mixer with it in this patch :)

@@puscha do you prefer Odessa vs verbos hamonic oscillator?

@@Hessencemusic Hard to say! They're both so different and both sounds so beautiful. Odessa is my dream module for glassy bell tones, while Harmonic Oscillator is an amazing piece of analog art. Depends on the use!

My pleasure! Hope it opens it up to you. Such a great sequencer.

@@puscha It certainly will! By the way, did you make any videos about Meadowphysics? Or can you recommend one? Looks like quite an interesting way to sequence as well!

@@unsaame9505 I have not, and haven't really seen many good videos on it either. It's a lot more simple but can be really nice. It's very generative. If I find some time perhaps I'll make one someday. But I use kria most of the time anyway :)

@@puscha Thanks for taking the time to answer my question; I'm new to it and a bit overwhelmed with all the possibilities the platform offers ;-) I'm sure that Kria, and MLR, should keep me entertained for a while! Cheers!

@@unsaame9505 It is for sure a very overwhelming world to get into! Patience and persistence are your friends. I think it's worthwhile keeping the manual documentation open in a tab and refer to videos regularly while you get the hang of it :) If you get stuck I hope that my other kria-oriented performance videos may provide some inspo!

Thanks so much :) Yep, ansible running kria. It's what I use for everything! It's the best. I also made a tutorial for it that may be useful to you when your ansible arrives.

@@puscha thanks. I landed on this video by way of your Kria tutorial. Thanks for putting that vid together, it’s definitely very useful for folks in my position.

@@IOSISDRONE Very much my pleasure to know that I can help folks create music in some small way :) I hope my video performances can give you some inspo on how it can be played live!

Thanks so much, this is lovely feedback to read :) I am obsessed with repetition haha.

Thank you :)

Thanks so much, Djeda <3 :D Happy with how this one came out.

kria, which is what I use for most things :)

@@puscha nice patch, I like it

@@dirkbouters202 Thanks so much!

Thank you! :D

Thank you, Djeda! :)

It's so easy! Takes some time to learn it to use without thinking, but once you're there it's very fast and immediate. This video starts with a blank slate on the grid, all notes are added/manipulated live.

Thank you! 🥰 Yes it's been a while, can't believe how fast time seems to move this year.
