WHOA! First off, thank you. I abandoned using that channel for kick (like everyone wants to do for channel 1) and have Dual TS to TRS 24" cable that I use to run a stereo voice into that channel. But I hate it. I just want that mono. Thank you! Second, how are you liking the Golden Master 1u pairing there? I used to have the same setup, but recently sold the Golden Master as I just couldn't seem to get it clean. Mostly, I had noise gating issues in silent moments where it would bring in the noise floor (really loud). So I sold it ... and now have mixed feelings about the sale for a couple reasons: 1 - I am struggling to find a good replacement. I love what you are doing in your other case with the Jumble Henge / HP setup, but I have a Cosmix for mixing, and thus the Jumble henge spectrum spacing doesn't really work. I am really trying to find something functional to get that spectral differentiation ... and it might just be a load of filters, plus a MSCL at End of Chain and maybe an EQ. Any recommendations? 2 - Now my 1u Cockpit has a stereo jack out. UGH! back to adaptor land. Typically I use 90 degree cables for everything, and these adaptors really get in the way in my center 1u row. I am now thinking of either ditching cockpit or getting Golden Master back literally just to avoid the output of Cockpit. I want to love both of these modules, and just looking for recommendations on how to make them work.
Totally agree that managing even that one random extra cable type feels so frustrating. I originally grabbed the cockpit for my little 62hp palette case since it can connect to the Intellijel 1/4" outs - but the overall approach for that case just really didn't do what I hoped it would, no fault of the Cockpit module. I had Golden Master originally in my more ambient focused A case, but as I refined things it just didn't make the cut. It sat in my B case for a while and didn't really have a clear role until I realized I could combine the cockpit and golden master together for a pretty decent mixing/eq chain in that case with modules I already had. I mostly use it for the playable mutes it has and for the stereo width, bringing the low end to the center and high end out wide, similar to Jumble Henge. I think it's fine for that, not necessarily a must have though. MSCL seems dope, so does SCLPL as an end of chain pair. I'd love those two, plus an overseer - but I don't think I'll ever have room unless I bail on my 200-grit approach. Does your stereo out on the cockpit sound distorted? The headphone symbol there makes me think its supposed to be line level, but I'm almost certain its modular level.
Oh, I have been sleeping on SCLPL. That might be a really good answer to my concerns if I can find one of them. Thanks! No, haven’t found the output distorted, but I did have issues with the stereo cable I bought not seating correctly and cutting in/out a bit. Swapped to a different brand adaptor and it resolved. Keep making great music and content! 🤘🤘
Cool solution! I run Queen of Pentacles through a trs to ch1 and I assume that’s why they made it that way. I’ve thought long and hard about what I’d do if I switched to LXR, and now I know!
Yeah it I guess makes sense if you have a bunch of their gear and are building out a full Endorphin.es system - but even then managing two cable types just feels annoying to me personally. If eurorack as a whole shifted to being TRS cables by default and every module had options for normalizing L>R - then maybe that starts to get a lot simpler. Every cable could then be stereo if the jack needed it and mono otherwise, but I just don't see that happening really.

Have tried jumbel henge ? Reviews are showing a very clear spectral spacing .. it seems to work really good
