Cheap and fun way to expand a semi-modular synth - Moog GM and Korg SQ1 tips and tricks

- Semi-modular is a great way to get into modular synthesis, but the next question is always "What gear to get next?". People often look to small cases and new modules, but this video shows how a simple sequencer can really expand your options, especially for modular synths that already have built in sequencers.
Hope you enjoy!

Thanks so much. I have the grandmother a little over a year and still learning so much. Just got the korg a week ago and wrapping my head around it. Thanks for this as it will be one to try Thank you
You're welcome, hope you enjoy! Drop any questions here and I'll try to help!
@@JordanColburn1 thanks so much!!
terrific tips-thanks!!
Amazing video! I have a Moog GM and SQ-1. What's the best way to connect them to so that the SQ-1 can function in the traditional way and trigger notes on the GM? I'd prefer not to use midi for this connection. I also need to connect the sequencer to a Behringer RD-6 (606 clone) drum machine. I'm fine with using midi for this connection. Any help is very much appreciated!
Also just liked and subscribed:)

Cool stuff! How did you attach Korg to GM?
Control Voltage. (CV) using regular 1/8" cables to patch works great! The sq1 is unique in that it can also send midi over usb or via an 1/8" to midi din jack (although this is quantized to real notes, an not totally linear as the CV allows) so its incredibly flexible for such a small and cheap device.
How can a voltage be negative?
Boomer dad joke version is something like: When they act like my wife, amiright?
Real answer: Voltages are all measured via a reference, in this case the ground of your eurorack case. The audio signals in it go above and below this reference and contain both positive and negative voltages. For this reason power supplies in audio gear often split and have a top rail (+12V for euro) and a bottom rail (-12V). It is a little confusing in this case because sequencers and note control in euro often are only positive signals (with each additional volt representing 1 octave). Things like LFOs often will go positive and negative and be centered around gnd. Check out the "signals in the a-100" section here: doepfer.de/a100_man/a100t_e.htm
I'd be interested in seeing what you do with the gates, too
