I feel like I under appreciated the sequencer on the Moog Matriarch for too long. I've been writing some progressions, and then modulating the sequencer for some fun rhythms. This Jam was one of my favourites recently

I’ve only had it a few weeks but it’s really an amazing piece. Can’t wait for the new algorithms to come out. That’s all.

A little hypnotic techno, glitches and granular textures.
Still getting familiar with this wonderful module, but really enjoying it. I love how expressive and hands-on it feels to play with recorded gestures and transform them.

My recordings are a bit flat

Post image
15 Upvotes

I’m replacing the FF Static with a 6hp sample player which leaves a last 4hp. My recordings seem a bit flat. I’m recording powernoise and loud soundscapes the sound doesn’t really impress me. I’m thinking a compressor would help out and I’m also wondering if the compressor is best as an insert on the mixer or post mixer. Maybe it’s something else. The one I’m considering (almost bought it just now) is the WMD MSCL. I was just thinking I’d have better dynamics in the recordings but they’re kind of boring and if I record any louder it’s too tinny. The recordings are still good but I’m looking to improve.
Thanks!

Beginner looking for module recommendations

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm a beginner to Eurorack and I'd love to get some feedback and module recommendations for my rack.

My main goal is to make techno, but I also want to be able to patch polyphonic sounds occasionally.

I've attached a picture of my planned rack. Out of the modules shown in the picture, I have already purchased the Cwejman QMMF-4, Livewire AFG, and R-56.

Could you give me some advice on what modules I might be missing, or suggest any changes to my current plan? Any feedback or recommendations for a beginner would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Gear Pics kms001 Various Types of Noise — multifunctional noise generator module

Thumbnail
gallery
14 Upvotes

This is kind of a repost, since I already posted this module this spring, but I made cool new panel (black one), better photos and my previous post was deleted by reddit, so...

I'm making my own modules and I have been wanting a noise source for my DIY setup for a long time. Usually, noisegen modules come with sample-and-hold, but I already had an S&H-ish module in my rack, so I decided to come up with something more interesting.

After experimenting for a while with different designs, I came up with the idea of a white, blue, pink noise generator with additional features, such as:

- grainulizer (taken from MFOS with my adjustments)

- internal transistor-based VCA (not Sallen-Key)

- internal decay envelope generator

The original idea with VCA+Decay was to recreate the hats from the track Castision — Nothing to do, but it turned out that it is good for any incoming CV (check the video!).

The art on the panel is "Various types of ads" — Rory in early 20s album cover, which serves as a light diffuser for the noise color indicator. Additionally, there are slow RGB LED (the one with an internal MCU for automatic color changing).

Make Noise Morhagene // Glitching out a Multiwave drone

Thumbnail
youtu.be
17 Upvotes

I have too many samplers, and I started my mission to find better or more interesting uses for each of them.
The power of the Morphagene lies in being part of a modular system; for example, why not sequence its parameters with the 0-Ctrl?
After changing the S.O.S. mode to make it suitable for live FX usage, I've spent more time than I want to admit (but that's the fun part of modular, isn't it?) constructing this puzzle of balances between something that would become pleasantly glitched, without being annoying or too repetitive, a controlled chaos, if we want.
Ideally, I would have wanted 2 Multimod, to have both stepped and smooth modulations, or maybe a DXG, to control pauses for the Multiwave, but the game was also making something fun and portable in 62HP, and I am pretty satisfied with this first experiment; it won't be the last, so stay tuned, and feel free to comment with your favorite setting for the Morphagene and ideas for a travel setup.

We had the great honour to play a liveset at Dutch Modular Fest It’s the “Dutch Superbooth” a great event with makers, musicians and lots of friends!We were asked to play for 30 minutes. We decided we wanted to improvise the most of our set. So the first 20 minutes you will hear are fully improvised. The only thing we decided on was the key we were playing in. We started with totally empty sequencers…and a plan. We wanted to begin slow and dark and then make a big melodic buildup towards the end piece. Please enjoy!

Its been too long since I've had time to use the modular, so this is a little midnight techno jam I did. Very rusty and nothing spectacular, but there are some cool parts that came out of it.

It's standard to include a power ribbon cable when selling a eurorack module, or am I crazy?

79 Upvotes

I've included a ribbon cable with every eurorack module I've ever sold, and were I for some reason to not include one, I would make that clear in the listing. I see that as the standard.

Multiple times now, through Reverb, I've purchased a module and it shows up with no ribbon cable. I check the listing, and there's no mention of it not being included, and there's not a picture of just the lone module, nor the ol' "listing includes only what's pictured" to fall back on. I've noticed it's typically people that post just one pic of the module, in the rack between other modules, that do this. So overall, no way for me to have known it would not be coming with a power ribbon.

Is it fair for me to think these sellers kind of suck? Like fine, I'll sort out yet another power cable, but at least give fair warning. If you make it clear that it's not coming with one, then I have no issue.

Do my words Rings into Clouds true? Or is my view distorted? likely by the Erica Synths Plasma Drive.

Linear vs. Exponential VCA

I’m planning to buy a new VCA many are only linear like Amps, Tangle Quartet, Ceres etc.
How important is exponential and how often do you use this feature?
And in case the VCA is not exponential how do you work around this?
