Obviously I have to say.... but they grow up so fast!

They're so cute when they're babies.

thank you for your welcoming and for your useful input!!
will try soon.

cheers!!

Thanks! Will most definitely order the µVCF today.

I would much prefer the Intellijel µVCF, as

• Doepfer does not promise v /oct tracking.
• The lowest Hz on the Intellijel is 2 Hz, meaning it cycles twice per second. That's fast for an LFO but still useable. 10 Hz on the Doepfer is steadily leaving LFO terrain.
• Intellijel has attenuators for both FM inputs to create complex modulations or complex FM tones together with the Atlantix (bells, rudimentary DX7 epianos etc)

A resonant filter with a pitch decay envelope into FM and an amplitude envelope after the Filter Out is a great simple percussion sound. On deep cut-off it's a kick, half-way with some noise in the other FM it's a snare, and pitched very high with noise it's hi hats.

Here's a video on how to get some other shapes out of it

Thank you for the insights and feedback. Much welcome! I have this tendency to get stuck when it comes to the last pieces. An extra filter is a very good point and i think i'll go for https://modulargrid.net/e/intellijel-%C2%B5vcf (if i manage to get a hold on one) or https://modulargrid.net/e/doepfer-a-121-3 as well as one or two https://modulargrid.net/e/intellijel-buff-mult (already got a built in buff mult in https://www.endorphin.es/modules/p/2hp-power) depending on what filter choose.

(And yes, intellijel fanboy over here).

@modulargrid can you please remove them to help others in not falling for it. A comments section in the feedback would be very helpful.

I just read this about sugarfreedaddy. That's crazy! I had great experience with him, but he sold a new module for way lower than it's worth. My guess is he might have had a way to steal them / get them for extra cheap?

Did anyone receive their modules or money after these messages?

Hi guys,

unfortunatelly, I have similar experience with @sugarfreedaddy. First, smooth communication, then I payed for the module (3.4.) and since then no communication at all. Tried to write him everywhere I could (MG, email, IG), but no response. Now I see his MG accound has been suspended.

This is interesting, since I have read in this forum, that several trades were made with this guy, and some of them appeared to be flawless, and he has also quite positive feedback. I hope this is only some kind of misunderstanding.

Cheers and happy patching to everyone.

Hi ambientvalent,

If you post the link to the rack and not have it on private, it will show up on the forum as an image and interactive, so that we can see the module descriptions.

For simple attenuators you can use the Mixup and Amps modules that you currently have.

I think that if I owned this and wanted to make ambient, I would either add a second oscillator with a different flavour, or a second filter. You have a lot of nice utilities that have more 'modulation outs' available than you need for just the Atlantix. Most (self-oscillating) filters and oscillators can be slowed down far enough to work as LFOs as well.

Atlantix has two oscillators, a second oscillator module could complete a 3-voice chord. Or use it on it's own when you don't feel like Atlantix for a day. For different flavour oscillators you may think about:
- ALM MCO2, it has digital libraries like wavetable and physical modeling and a built-in filter and envelope and is only 6 HP. Most of its controls are in menus though.
- Famous Plaits in a 6HP clone version, has digital libraries and a low-pass gate. No real filter and there's only one filter in your system so far.

A second filter can be used on the second oscillator of the Atlantix, or use the Atlantix filter and the second filter in series or parallel. I would either choose something that can also track 1v/oct and self-oscillate so that you can use it as an oscillator+lfo, or maybe an Oberheim style state variable filter (which will traditionally not self-oscillate) as it can move between filter types fluidly, great for ambient.

If you stick to 6 HP, you can use that last 2 HP to get an extra utility of your choice in.

Hope that helps, good luck!

Really nice.
Maybe add two or three Buff Mults to share those hard won signals.
As long as you're using the Arp, a 2hp Euclid always brings cheap thrills.

Hi,

This is my recently assembled little rack. Using it mainly for ambient and more musical arps. Any suggestions for additional modules? Plan is to add more modulation, like some quad lfo or so. And attenuetors.

Herding Emus is definitely wild -- half the fun is doing it blind!

The main modular. Planning took forever. Lots to test. So far, yikes it sounds big.
I tried to keep the most typical connections to be close enough for the Little Yellow Wires.
I'm using a Deftaudio midi hub down next to the Misha, but MG doesn't have their listing.

Note use of the two Doepfer A-180-9 Multicores. The cool thing is that you can use two ribbon cables and connect them from the back.
That gets 14 lines from the note clocks on the left over to the voice modules on the other side, without draping a dozen wires across the box.
The 'ethernet' connectors still work for connecting other synths.

I have to go back and study the Misha and Nerdseq manuals a bunch more.
Hopefully someday I can tame that Mob of Emus. They are always ornery.

Hello there,

I have an issue with "lihuelsosa", i sent him 350e for two modules, we discuss on whatsapp and i paid via Paypal and the guy didn't answer me anymore.

He said that he received the paiement and he'll post it today (it was yesterday), and still no news. I tried to call him, but he blocked me.

I checked his profil and i saw one positive feedback by a user, so i contacted him (pisrecords) to know how was his experience,
but no answer ...

So be aware of him ! I'm waiting for an answer before asking for more reasearch about him (i have a policeman close to my family)

Why it's impossible to find Bitbox MK2 from the searcher? There are only Bitbox MK1 and micro listed.

Is this fixed for you?

hi Frederico

thanks for answering here.
Shit happens, for all of us. i was a little scarry of your long silence but i know everyone can have issues.

I'm happy to read everything is now good for you guys

cheers

This build is more 'play notes' oriented than 'funny noise' oriented, with lots of sequencing and step counting from the left side.
Turned out nice, and formidable too. Stereo four voice polyphonic, and eight parts is a stretch, but possible.
Sounds great so far and it even stays in tune with itself, mostly.

The GO cases and internals are pretty good, plasticy but sturdy enough. Their joining bracket is a little wonky.
The joined pair is solid, but in no way road worthy, and the whole thing is way heavier than it seems.

Despite it all being Behringer, the ARP side sounds distinctly different from the Roland side.
Glass-ey vs. woody maybe? The 2500 modules also tend to have way wider output ranges than the System-100M Series stuff.

I count 81(?!) pot shafts sticking up from the System-100M modules.
They all really deserve knobs. Feels unfinished. Ick.

Still testing and learning what it can do.
No video, but I thought I could share a picture of it.
Fun.

Hi there,

Same kind of issue with germainp here. I bought him a Mimeophon on the 18th of July. 310 € including all fees. He told me he received the payement, and I have no news from him since then. I sent him e-mails several times without any reply. I'm glad I opted for a PayPal payement with purchase protection. He wanted me to use F&F but I refused. I just declared a dispute via PayPal today.

EDITED Jul 26th, 10:36

Yep germainip is a scammer. 2nd time I have been scammed with a 200€ Pamela's Pro Workout so might be the same guy as last time. Stay vigilant.

Hello,

just a small warning about the user germainp .
he is selling several well known modules ( morphagen, mimeophon,...)

he got zero feedback here.
he showed me feedback from another website ( guitarrista) where he got good feedback ( but nothing since 2022)
he showed me pictures of module. it was not AI

i paid, he confirmed he received the money.
msg were quite instantly (max 12h latency until payment )

but after payment, no news since 5 days now .

I try to contact them by mail and facebook but no answer too

You can upload new modules here:

If in doubt keep them for yourself, there is a checkbox for that.

Hi all,

Seriously tempted to put an Endorphines Ghost in a pod 32 as a compact effects unit. Still not 100 sold on the sound yet and would like to be convinced otherwise. How do you rate it? Seems to pack a lot in a small space, and nicely flexible, but possibly a bit cluttered for live playing.

Appreciate any thoughts.

So I have come across some modules that I can not find here.. just as an example someone was recomending me a Behringer 304 Mixer (I think it was), but I did not find it, or that exact model with the current panel. I also got a module: the Pianist from NOH Modular with a original white panes, even though it is a limited edition.. (not sure how limited) but anyway.. my question would be:

Can I personally add modules I can not find? Or add custom or different panels as long as they are existing? Or do I have to notify the ModularGrid staff and they will take care of it when they someday can?

If I can do it, how? Is there any special guide lines? How to add (probably png) and such.. I have searched but did not find any thing.. but I might have searched wrong, relatively new here. :-)

Any tips?

Best regards Marius

Hello and welcome.
An envelope follower is useful for getting a CV source from an audio input. Say you plug a guitar into your Instrument Interface, every time you pluck a string an envelope is generated, either positive or negative. You might want to use that negative envelope to lower the wet/dry of your effects so you can hear each note clearly followed by a blooming reverb or something. I often use the negative envelope generated by a kick drum to "duck" my bassline so the bass remains a little clearer. Or maybe you want to get an auto-wah effect by using the positive envelope to open a filter that your guitar is going into. Those are a few uses of an envelope follower.
Have fun!

I read line in/ line out on the panel. how is this thought for eurorack?
-- Musicaespressiva2

It's designed to fit in a 3U Eurorack row. There's multiple instances on the site of someone or some company adapting a desktop unit to fit in a Eurorack case, presumably so that the user doesn't have to take up extra room putting the desktop unit somewhere separate, or so that they don't have to have multiple power supplies and worry about a separate box. It's eurorack mainly for the sake of convenience.

Fractaos version 1.5 is now available.
This update adds five new percussion curves: Kick, Tom, Hi-Hat, Snare, and Cymbal. Each has its own character and can be made more unstable using the Chaos and Depth parameters.
This makes it possible to create relatively regular percussion sounds, as well as hits that evolve, become distorted, or vary slightly with each trigger.
Version 1.5 also brings several improvements:
• Direct access to presets using the PREV button.
• Direct access to MULTI mode using the NEXT button.
• Extended envelope times: up to 8 seconds for Attack and Decay, and 12 seconds for Release.
• More responsive envelope controls and preset recall.
• LIVE track volume can now be adjusted in MULTI mode.
The update and the new user manual are available on the Kaona website.
Thank you for your feedback, which continues to help Fractaos evolve!

Hey there! New user of the page here, first post and first patch ever...
I just patched the palette case the way I use it for using my vocal microphone and various external keyboards / synths or a bass guitar / acoustic guitar via eurorack, mainly in order to process it via mimeophon, clouds and my eventide h9 (connected via the pedal i/o module).

The Neo Trinity is there obviusly for modulation of the mimeophon and clouds. I patch it via the attenuator cables from Koma Elektronik since I don't have an attenuator nor does the module provide a way to module the voltage of it's signal.

I was wondering if you had any ideas to use the envelope follower capabilities of the Befaco's Instrument Interface. I don't seem to fully understand the possibilities of that section of the module in this case.

Any help will be appreciated!

it would be cool if you had a page where I could set my already created cases up next to one another, like a STUDIO or ROOM, just having the cases the same proper sizes and allowing useres to create their own room or desk or studio of multiple cases.

Sadly this is the way. Well done!

We’ve now introduced an allowlist of the most common websites that can be linked in private messages. As a result, it should no longer be possible to include links to phishing sites.

This is admittedly a rather drastic measure, as the allowlist certainly won’t cover every legitimate website. However, we believe it’s a better approach than trying to maintain a denylist, which can never keep up with newly created phishing domains.

Unicorn users are currently exempt from this restriction because their accounts are not anonymous.

If a URL is blocked that you think should be allowed, please let me know via PM or at info@modulargrid.net so I can add it to the allowlist.
