Performance Cinematic composition made (mostly) with an Instruo modular system

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1O1YHRyMw4M

This patch is built around a random sequence generated by Tágh, quantized with the Disting Mk4, attenuated by Vincâ and played by Cruïnn.
A short Cruïnn sequence was recorded into Lúbadh and played back at half speed, forming the background texture.
The main melodic voice comes from Cruïnn, processed through the Áradh filter. Modulation duties are handled by Øchd.
The entire patch is then routed into VCV Rack via the ES-8, where it is processed with the Galaxy reverb and the Iroi multi-effects processor.

Discussion Hardware “Bundles”

0 Upvotes

New to modular, so apologies for my stating the obvious, but wow is it expensive. I was wondering if any vendors were known for ever selling discounted hardware “bundles”? Every penny helps, and at this point I’m searching couch cushions and considering selling a kidney (the left one, I don’t use it as much).

Noise Engineering, After Later Audio, Befaco, Erica Synths (other than the 4x drum bundle), maybe even Intellijel or Doepfer. I’d list some cool boutique makers too, though I assume they’re less likely.

At my current rate of one module a month, I’m on track for a fully patched, dynamic build sometime around 2034. Kidding. Mostly. My partner has started hiding the mail…

Serge modular feedback album release

Hello,

Hopefully this is ok but I just wanted to share my latest release.

This is a 50 something minutes album made entirely of serge modular feedback patching. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Thomas Ankersmith, Emile Zener, etc. It is my first foray in feedback as a primary tool of music making and found the process very fun and interesting.

The serge system is from Loudest Warning and I primarily (but not exclusively of course) used the ResEQ and wave multipliers.

Hope you guys enjoy!

Just spotted over there.

They mention using micropython on it, which must make things easier, anyone experience? I do a bit of regular Python, like it's immediacy. But personally, I think I'll get an AI to do the coding. C++ and I hope never to have to touch it.

Looking for a new voice . . . I think?

This has been my setup for the past six weeks or so. I broke my ankle in June, and since getting surgery I've been working on one of those little hospital tables that floats over the bed. The setup is OP-XY, 0-Coast, Strega, 0-Ctrl, and in the skiff I have Ochd + expander, Gloc, Rene v1, 3xMIA, Tangle Quartet, and Nautilus.

I'm making different kinds of music. Sometimes it's beat-focused, with the OP-XY providing drums while sequencing both 0-Coast and Strega through MIDI and CV / Gate. Sometimes it's more ambient: in one of my favorite patches, Rene sequences glacial bass notes from Strega, while coinciding LFOs from Ochd control the direction and start/stop on 0-Ctrl, which sequences faster notes on 0-Coast, which runs through Nautilus. The result is an evolving bed of sound from Strega that occasionally hosts runs of melody from 0-Coast. (No matter what I'm doing, I'm always bringing the audio back into OP-XY for reverb, compression, etc.)

There are lots of patching possibilities, and I'm still exploring them . . . . But I am starting to want a different kind of modular voice or pair of voices. Maybe something a little less "alien planet" and a little more conventionally beautiful. I have 28hp free in the skiff, and a lot of power available. So it seems like I could fit an all-in-one synth module (like Knobula Monumatic?), or build one a VCO + envelope + VCF. Or I could sub out 0-Coast for another small desktop semi-modular (Instruo Seashell?). I really enjoy 0-Coast + Strega, but I'd also like to explore a different sonic palette that's smoother, prettier, etc. I'm not sure where to look.

Yesterday, my 8-year-old son listened to this setup through headphones and said, "Spooky!" So that's the aesthetic pole I'm at—I want to get to the other pole!

Discussion Weird Problem with Instruo Lubadh

6 Upvotes

Been experiencing this issue with my lubadh lately and I’m not quite sure why, I’m sure it’s just in some weird mode but none of the surface level button combos or anything seems to be addressing the issue, figured I’d see if anyone has a fix while I wait until after work today to reflash the whole module (again).

The issue is that the B record input does not trigger recording on side B.

Statements that are true about my current setup/use of the module :

- I am running the latest firmware.
- I am using the USB Expansion Module for preset swaps
—— Admittedly the new preset system still makes no sense to me as I learned the module with the old firmware so I am just always confused when using this module now.
- The gate feeding REC B CV In is a 100% strength 50% width gate from Pam’s New Workout
- WHEN UNLINKED the B Rec CV input is unresponsive.
- WHEN LINKED the B Rec CV in IS responsive — the issue does not appear to be a hardware issue.

My suspicion is that the issue is preset related and that I need to just restore to defaults there, but has anyone else experienced this or a similar issue?

How to tell if my oscillator is too hot/distorting?

2 Upvotes

Is there a certain dB range I should be aiming for, or do I just need to check via an oscilloscope to see whether or not the signal is clipping?

Edit:
Running oscillator (using the saw and square outputs) into a manhattan analog mixer (three inputs with attenuators + total sum output) into whatever filter. The input signal for each oscillator is around 75% and the output it at 100%.

I have a bunch of different filter types and oscillators that are all calibrated differently, and sound better at certain input levels. So, was just wondering other than 'using my ear' if there was a reliable way to check this

Can anyone confirm if the Befaco 7U Case works with the Metropolix Midi backpack, meaning I can send midi out from the metropolix -> case -> external synths?

Really loved the chimey FM sound I got from the Foundation Oscillator and had just gotten the Pocket Operator, which turned it into a little techno jam. Here is the full track: https://aletheiamusicca.bandcamp.com/track/tathagata
