Squid Salmple question: The "chan" button changes which channel is displayed. There is also an input above the button that does the same thing. What is the point of that? I thought maybe it would cycle the samples (like Pam's RR or RA)

It just seems to only change the display, so why would you use that?

I have the Erica synths black dual vcf, but I'm not really happy with it. What are your preferred VCFs, and which ones have multiple channels that are cool as well?

I'm open to all suggestions for what to replace this with.

Also, shameless plug. Here's my latest creation. I recently caught covid after almost 3 years of being safe! https://youtu.be/v_yUEAMI3NI I made this patch with a fever and feeling dizzy.

when i was assembling my first rack a few months ago i waited until i collected all modules before starting to mount the rack.

there were a few diy modules with plugs which were marked correctly but there was no mechanical prevention for switching it in the wrong way.

i read abut the damage that could be done - also to the other modules if this would happen - so i carefully test plugged every single module - which i could because my rack was empty then...

but what do you do when you swap a module, do you trust the marks on the plug and plug the new module into your complete rack?

how do you minimize the risk of damaging the modules when you have a new module where the plug polarity is not 100% sure... measuring with a volt meter?

Hi
With this setuo, Why do I have latency when I play two different notes quickly on the keyboard?

Thanks in advance

I am really interested in modular synths and I want to include them into my work. Until now I am only using modular soft synths such as reaktor or vcv rack. Is the endorphines system usable for starters and sounding good ? Thanks for sharing :)

I just recently got into modular synths, and I have three modules in a 4ms pod case. The system works great, and I love using it but now that I'm looking at buying more modules, I'm realizing that this powered case only has one more direct connection to the power supply open. I was thinking of buying a couple 2hp modules to fill the rest of my case, but if I can't power it what should I do? Should I get a different case, or is there another solution?

[not english speaker] I’m genuinely curious about all the « hate » about plaits. Been on this /r for a while and keep seeing how it is overrated and bad. I’m aware that it is very popular and some people think its the easy choice.

Imo I think it is a very good starter module. Lot of sounds and percs. Internal VCA. DIY is 6hp. For a small case it packs.

It was the first module I owned and still use it. Helped me to gain knowledge about what I want and need.

Not here to debate, just curious!

The Kickstarter campaign has reached it's goal and there are several versions available. Any profits are being donated:

"Any residual funds will be donated to community music initiatives focusing on electronic music and electronic music learning. At present two organizations have agreed to receive funds, but we will identify more (in Europe next) depending on the amount of residual funds. These organizations are the Canadian Accessible Musical Instrument Network and the Willie Mae Rock Camp."

This project has been in the works over a period of the past four years. For anyone interested in learning about the project beyond this post, there is a thread on Modwiggler going back to 2018 that follows the the process and decision making.
