Thanks team Knobula! Both for the comment and super thanks, but mainly for making such unique and interesting modules with the musician in mind! I’d love to try some out in a songwriting setting for you, given that I’m the only eurorack pop writer on the planet… probably haha. Cheers again!
Man, I will never understand why you don't have more subscribers. I appreciate your focus on music making in modular. I appreciate your approach so much and it has inspired me since you started the channel. All the best to you Aaron from the US!
Cracking videos! Love the humour and your quest to make modular a little less scary! I checked out your Spotify, great stuff! You deserve way more hits on those tracks! Great work!
One of the best YT content creators I've watched/returned to. And it's a right shame you have 10,000+ views of this one video, yet only 4.67k subscribers. Keep it up!! 🙂
I'm so glad you mentioned the A-111111-6 because having just started in eurorack it has been an absolute legend. In my ignorance as a newbie I thought I could use my Piston Honda off the bat. But it needs other stuff like a vca and a filter to control it. And the A-111-6 was more than happy to deal with this "limitation" the envelop is fantastic it has a really sharp control. So you can get percussive sounds very easily. And the filter is doing things it shouldn't have to. It has gone above and beyond for me. And it made it's self useful from the beginning in ways that I would not have guessed when I first got my nifftykeyz. So if I sound like a fan boy that's because I definitely am. The A-111-6 is the most surprising module I have got so far. Not that the Piston isn't great. But I paid 500 for it. The A-111-6 was less than 200 and I can't get enough of the filter or the clever envelope. You have great taste in modular Aaron.
Haha thanks Rod. Yeah I agree, it does a magnitude of things very well in a small form factor and for a very reasonable price. I’ll be getting more Doepfer modules for sure!
Agreed. It’s still my preferred use but I’d need a second one now. My live case is pretty much solidified and staying patched for writing and performance.
😂 Ah yes, I’m 7 years old again and laugh too much about knob jokes. The only module on the list I have is the ochd and that’s so good! Perfect module in my book. I definitely need to build a Rings. I mean, do I even make ambient if I don’t have a Rings? 😉
I think at this point, my immaturity is that ingrained that I don’t even realise I’m making them haha. Get yourself a friggin rings! Treat yourself for being an avid watcher of my terrible jokes :) haha.
@@Mavenfiction 😂 You’re a bad influence, you know that? Always encouraging us to get expensive toys! It’s definitely on the list, but I’ve told myself not to build more rack stuff until I finish another album and there are at least 5 other modules where I have the PCBs already. Yes, sometimes I pretend to be a responsible adult too 🤣
@@LillySchwartz haha I try usually to say don’t buy anything. Especially on my day so. But this time you need to buy it! Where can I hear your music please?
@@Mavenfiction It goes to the top of the list then! I've been meaning to build one for ages. Rings & Clouds were the reason why I got into DIYing Eurorack modules in the first place. Already built a Monsoon now and now Rings will be in the next batch of modules I build, for sure! I already use it on VCV, but that's never quite the same without the knob twiddling ( 😜 ) There is some of my music on my channel, if you wanna have a listen! Just uploaded some today by chance.
Morning (for me at least), Sadly not. I don’t have one. I have a couple of poly modules in my case. I’d actually really love one or maybe the new pianophonic to try. Maybe even to replace the chord v2.
@@Mavenfiction Depends on what I’m trying to do, eg. the Coral allows you to assign a different MIDI channel for each sound engine so you could sequence drums, baseline and lead from say a KeyStep Pro. I’ve played with it but I have an Oxi One which has plenty of CV/gate outs and a Westlicht Per|former in my rack too!
See? I TOLD you Rings was properly used as a VCO, not an effect. An excellent selection, not least because I’ve had four of these (and still got three of ‘em). The GC gag went straight over my head however because I have no idea who you were talking about…
Haha you were right all along! I like it as long as I always leave it in one setting. Which was the one you were missing? Which was the one you now don’t have?
@@Mavenfiction I sold the SWN- despite your love of it I found it rather a one-trick pony, and a bugger to sync with Pam’s. Put the money towards a Harmonaig as I recall… on holiday atm so I’ve had no modular fun at all for three days!
How Yorkshire are you? I'm kinda Cheshire but not posh, built the system 100 and the ARP 2500 and just got the stylophone CDM, it's well worth the money
Thanks

Your style is golden mate, keep it up!
It’s a natural, northern drawl - what’s not to like?
Your videos are GOLD! Keep up the great work!

@@Mavenfiction me too lad if you want a thing to do a thing then Doepfer has the thing to do it!
Brilliant!
Using Rings as a resonator with an audio feed is quite good fun, you can get some slightly vocoder-esque stuff out of it.
Agreed. It’s still my preferred use but I’d need a second one now. My live case is pretty much solidified and staying patched for writing and performance.
I have 3 111- 6. 😂 fantastic module. I agree on every module beside ground Control, I would take the black sequencer instand. .
sound examples would have been cool
Sorry Kevin, I did have some playing behind. Levels sounded good on my monitors but didn’t translate very well through the phone.
Rings through Clouds or Beads is a classic, not a cliche!
I guess so. I’m coming around to it a lot more these days!
Nice to see knob jokes back
They never truly left 😂

Swn if you make you’re own wave tables and run it out into a wave folder it’s awesome
I was thinking the Knobula Poly Cinematic might make the list 😉
Morning (for me at least),
Sadly not. I don’t have one. I have a couple of poly modules in my case. I’d actually really love one or maybe the new pianophonic to try. Maybe even to replace the chord v2.
@@Mavenfiction I’m also having fun with the RYK Vector and the new Oxi Coral, poly 😁
@@symbiat0 are you using them with midi or CV?
@@Mavenfiction Depends on what I’m trying to do, eg. the Coral allows you to assign a different MIDI channel for each sound engine so you could sequence drums, baseline and lead from say a KeyStep Pro.

Absolutely adore the Knobula Poly Cinematic :)
It confuses me that I don't own a swn.
It’s pretty pricey but a great module. Especially for performance.
it’s great and I hardly use it but this vid has made me pay it some attention again
