Are there any CV inputs to modulate the LFOs? I see the FM inputs. Can you use to the blender section to do so? Interesting module and very cost friendly.
The layout should be horizontal in 4 rows with corresponding IO on the right, why lfo panels are columns when the I/O is distrbuted horizontally in rows :) Also the panel is made of pcb.. yes it is easier and cheaper to "draw" shaped lights for visualization, but the standard is 2mm metal sheet and you just use 3mm leds and draw the shape with ink to visualize things, other way it looks like an unfinished prototype made with online pcb factories in china. But the price is ok, keep up making modules and spend some more time thinking in usability and customer's final feeling about your product. Good luck!
@@Tiger.Arcade yes sure this comment goes to the author of this module I'm sure he is going to read it and the feedback is important, the layout is crucial to usability. and yes i also designed some myself but I'm not satisfied with them so I don't sell them (I use pcb for front panel as well but for prototyping not for the final product)
Seriously? This thing's $100. Why are you wanting them to unnecessarily increase the price due to unneeded cost increases? The "standard" isn't a standard. That's just what most people use. Why? Because TRADITION. But growth and evolution come from bucking the 'standard' and doing things that have their own set of benefits. In this case, PCB works just fine if you aren't abusive to the hardware. And if you break it, you can work around that or just order a new cover, probably total cost is still under the cost for metal and screw ports. I don't think it looks like an unfinished prototype. It looks good, and it looks unique. But I also wouldn't be disappointed if they start a new trend. Of course, if you don't like the looks and want metal, feel free to create or order one on your own. But to suggest the manufacturer increase the cost to ME because YOU don't like it smacks of elitist hubris.
@@garealtours Just to remark that my main criticism was around the wrong layout of controls, logical units are not grouped as they should just randomly placed on the panel without any user experience focused logic. If you have two groups, why do you divide them in two subgroups and order them differently.. About the material, a pcb panel of that size costs 3$ (golden plated) each, what a steel or aluminium one would cost, 5$? 7$? So "elitism" is not the point here, just spend few dollars more on the production and sell it for 105$ and you would be fine. last point "and it looks unique" - not at all, all the cloned modules look the same, all pcb panels are the same color scheme black+white+gold, it just doesn't look unique when a lot of companies use this trick to make the production cheaper (Qu-bit, Make noise, after later audio, creaudio)
@@user-kill666 the creators are using the PCB as a filter for the LEDs in a way that cannot be done with steel. As for the price, they're already pretty thin margins of profit. Even if, as you suggest, that a plate adds another 1/20th to the cost, that's either forcing them to absorb a cost or for other customers to foot the cost, only to sate your demand that they conform to tradition to suit your preference. Regarding the arrangement, I found it to be perfectly logical, despite again not conforming to tradition as you opine in your reply. It makes sense to me. You are most welcome to redesign the device to suit your preference, including creating your own metal plate, needing little more than a soldering iron and wires. :) But for $100, there is nothing pragmatically wrong with it.

Cool module. Can you get the moog cases separately? If I wanted to stack on top of my ss3.
$100?? Sounds very reasonable
You can purchase the Moog cases separate. Check description for a link. There are powered and unpowered versions.

It’s not my product, maybe you should design one yourself if you’re not satisfied. I thoroughly enjoy mine.

Welcome to the financial blackhole of modular. Your options will expanded and your bank account, well I wont spoil the surprise
🤣 I’ve been in it for a bit now. Just takes lots of research, self control and using modular grid.
