Objective

Portable weekend/travel palette.

Context

Pushing the limits of the 62hp palette beyond the 12 native power slots w/ flying bus cable, with modules that didn't make the final cut on my main rack

Music

Techno-dub-ish delirium

Random patch notes

  • Total recall will handle decay of Brooks and Pico Drum high hat through Pons Asinorum; decay of pluck
  • Remaining Pons tracks will be for modulation
  • Tymp legio will hanlde BD with low bass and ducking
  • Brooks for mid bass
  • Pluck for lead
  • Peaks not sure yet, but probably snares or modulation
  • Pico Drums 2nd track for bell or snares (if Peaks is on modulation duty)
  • Arp...well...arp cv distributed to both Brooks, Tymp and Pluck cv/oct (they'll all have different triggers)
  • Running order and Steppy - sequencing duties w/ one track of Steppy for reset variations
  • Pico dsp for drum fx
  • Electus (or I'll flash it for Desmodus) for fx on the pluck
  • Brooks will be handled with LPG 1U and Pons Asinorum

I'd put the 2 sequencers, total recall and Arp on the same flying bus cable

Will it work ?
Any suggestions for changes ?

Thx a lot !

ModularGrid Rack


As long as the total power draw of all the modules is within the capacity of the palette you should be fine. I did the same thing in my niftycase's back when i had them without any problems.


Hey,
Here is an update.

I ended up with a differeng setup:

ModularGrid Rack

With 2 more modules than the 12 expected on the 62hp Palette case. Works fine!

It's a fun little skiff. Not much variation on the sounds, but Neo-Trinity allows for on-the-fly cv recording to change melodies, steppy is quite playable, I can alter the synths´ decay with Total Recall and note triggers with Running Order, Electus is quite fun, I even have some ducking with Tymp...not too bad for such a small portable case.
