jia. i mean, if you want to look for it..... Reddit.

i'm way more interested in Stages than Marbles. Marbles looks cool and all, but it's basically a Beefy Olivier Flavored Turing Machine no?

I found a video that sheds light the quantization/scales. I didn’t realize you’d have to plug in an external source at least once Marbles can sample that scale and then save it.

I just saw another pic of Stages. It’s referred to as Segment Generator. The CV in’s are labeled “Time/Level” and the buttons at the top say “shape/time”

MI dude has requested that the image not be shared.

I can describe it though (didn't save image):

6 mini knobs at the top (think MI's normal attenuverter knobs)

6 LEDs lit green

6 small buttons underneath each (think mode change button on Clouds)

6 sliders with LED's on them (think Batumi or Metropolis style sliders)

6 inputs with Time/Level labeled underneath each

6 gate inputs underneath those

6 outputs labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Voltage Memory is off to Beijing for resurrection surgery. Might keep it after all, but I'm still gonna put the Rook in that spot, because BOTH. I'm still going to sell the Karp though ($70 ILF dibs price if anyone wants to pm for it). It's the blue panel version, ordered direct from MQ on etsy.

Speaking of both, who else wants to get Marbles and Marble Physics? :picard:

Maybe you should try bonding with this again? :snax:

:poke: I'm still wondering how you'd incorporate it into a modular set-up:

OK, it's a little more expensive than the last one. When it rains, it pours. :surprise:
