Re: GS Music E7. A synth from Argentina.

Yes I think it has something that is missing from Sequentials. I emailed the chap who makes them. He responded promptly and said the colour I wanted was on its way to Juno but when I contacted them they knew nothing about it and wouldn’t let me reserve one.

Re: Modular case earthing issues.

I had a similar issue with multiple Rackbrute cases. I felt quite demoralised after speaking to Graham Hinton as the fix seemed to a hard pill to swallow. I sold the Rackbrutes and bought a Doepfer monster case which is great but I am reaching the point where I will need a second. Glad there is a ch...

Re: Best Outboard wiring

Thanks Elf, its beginning to look a lot like Brexit with nothing agreed until everything is agreed but wiring instead of agreements. I am thinking of connecting the outboard processors to the Fireface as they will be in constant use and I presume the A/D conversion is marginally better than on the P...

Re: Best Outboard wiring

Well my new sapele rack unit has arrived from Studio Racks - first conclusion is that whilst two 19 inch racks side by side look great, they pose more of an issue with getting them wired up than a unit on castors. Once wired they will be in a much better position for use. Having swotted up on patchb...

Re: Best Outboard wiring

Cheers Elf,

I'll try and have a think and see if I can work something out but expect an email!

Re: Best Outboard wiring

TBH, I really tend to only use 3 or 4 favourite synths at most. Perhaps I need to scale things back to match my capabilities.

Re: Best Outboard wiring

I understood (deliberate past tense) how they work but I have developed Parkinsonism (Parkinsons caused by medication) and my memory is shot to pieces. I have to constantly relearn all sorts of stuff - hence why it was a relief to get rid of them.

Re: Best Outboard wiring

Probably sounds hilarious but after you helped me set them up I eventually sold all my hardware FX because it all seemed like hard work :bouncy::bouncy::headbang:

It seemed like a relief to get rid of the patchbays and I was hoping to avoid painting myself back into that particular corner.

Best Outboard wiring

Hi all and Happy New Year, I recently purchased a Gainlab Audio Dictator (valve compressor) and am awaiting delivery of an Empress (valve EQ). I also have an old DBX 166XS floating around somewhere too. I am on Cubase 11/12 Pro and am using an RME Fireface 802 and a Ferrofish Pulse 16 for audio in/o...

Re: Tending to the Timbral Garden - rhythmic modulation

Definitely sounds similar to what I would like to do but you clearly have deeper modular knowledge than me. I can see this conversation resulting in “purchases.” :D

Re: Tending to the Timbral Garden - rhythmic modulation

Hi Ben, I like what you are doing. I became interested in repetitive rhythmic modulation after finding Johan Baeckstrom’s music. I know Johan uses the gated sequencer on the Prophet 08. I’ve picked up a DC-coupled AI and hope to incorporate a hybrid software/hardware setup. Unfortunately I am awaiti...
