I came into this video with no idea what this machine was or what it did, I almost feel I could use one now. This is easily one of the best video tutorials I've come across on any subject. Thank you!
I didn't have a clue what that module did. Your video is amazing, and explains exactly what every function of the module is for. Unfortunately I'm thick, and I still don't have a clue !
+Steven Bassett Thanks Steven. I a couple weeks, I'll be putting another video together. I've been getting a lot of requests for the 251e and the 252e, but I don't have those yet.
Well now I know what Suzanne Ciani was talking about when she mentioned this in comparison to the MARF. It can serve a similar purpose but in a live performance it might be lacking.
+ourigin. Yes mine does a full 0-16 stage range - but I’ve noticed some inconsistency, but it could either be from the calibration/precision of the 250e stage addressing itself, or the accuracy of the control voltage applied. For instance, when I first tested - not on the demonstration in the video - I applied from a source CV sweeping from what I thought was 0-10 volts, and the 250e would vary sometimes between a range or 0-14, 0-15 stages - but then later, with no other obvious factors, it would do the full range or 0-16. Perhaps this is due to either the 250e or the module providing the voltage not providing the expected range. I could have tested with a multimeter, but did not - instead I opted to run my source through a 256e CV processor to clamp and massage the source voltage into a range that would give me the 0-16 stage range in the way I expected. This gives me the most reliable result, as I don’t have to concern myself with the zillion other variables that might be affecting things: circuits warming up, small power inconsistencies/flucations, etc. that might be limiting the voltage needed to drive the full stage range.

This helps a fuck load! The 250e is my most neglected module. Thank you!!!!!

i really hope you make more of these, easily the best modular tutorial i’ve seen!
Thank you! I do intend to make more soon.
@@trickdigital looking forward to it :)
More videos of this quality would be welcome and much gratitude would be sent your way sir.

Excellent. 100x more useful than the manual.
Thank you! I'm so glad you found it helpful!
trickdigital Definitely! Mine just came in today, so I’m sure I’ll watch this vid at least a couple more times!
Great work Adam! Thanks for sharing this :)
This is much appreciated; thank you!
+Tom Martin You're welcome Tom. Cheers.
Thank you for uploading video !!
I'm glad you like it! I hope it was helpful.

That thing is bat shit crazy I love it
This was really well done and very helpful. Why did you stop making these after just this one?
great! we need more!
Thanks. More to come...
Great video thanks.
Thanks Steven!
Regarding stage addressing: I can't get my 250 to sweep through the full 0-16 steps. Best I can get is 0-14.
Can you confirm yours does this?

Most helpful! Merci!
I can't imagine the circuitry behind this.
great demonstration! is there any similar module in eurorack world?
I'm not aware of anything like the 250e in eurorack.
Max Hasser have a look at the er-101 plus expander er-102 from orthogonal devices. One of the most interesting modules in the eurorack format.
Thanks Wein Glas!
Seems like doing it with software would be much easier for presets, etc.
man this is complicated. though very nicely explained, it still confuses me.
I want one but I'm not exactly $40,000 up right now... lol maybe someday
Nice video, thanks.
Cheers.
