Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
I think some people here have a Trogotronic m277 (Warpsmasher ?)...
What do you think of it ? And how does the pan thing work (on the newer model) ?
There are no clear videos showing that (the Trogo one is for the older model)...
There is one available locally for a decent price and it's a bit tempting (I would have to yet again revise my long term plans but it could fit in the 7U I think)...

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
Same! I got impatient and ordered from a builder in the UK, as soon as I Paypal’d I got a message from buddy who put together my uBurst and TSNM3U saying he had my preorder ready.behndy wrote:yessssssss. NanoRings is en route.

So I paid a little less all said and done, but it won’t be here for a week.
I am moving the Mother32 outta my case and putting together an entire 104hp row of Mutable shit. Marbles, Stages, Clouds, Rings, Ripples, Warps, Veils.
After I complete this mission I’m gonna pull dfam out of my rack too and assemble a balls to the wall percussion row.
Send help.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
Just got a killer deal on a Mother 32 with a 2-tier rack, Moog case, Links, Unity Mixer, uZeus, and Division 6 sequencer thing.
Listed my SMR and Alter 2 to cover the costs. Might end up listing my Structure 270 as well, not sure I'll be needing it any time soon as I can fit everything else in the HEK I have laying around.

DFAM in your future? I've heard a little of the Subharmonicon from Moogfest and I cannot wait for this to come out. Might be Moog's most interesting semi-modular.MrNovember wrote:Just got a killer deal on a Mother 32 with a 2-tier rack, Moog case, Links, Unity Mixer, uZeus, and Division 6 sequencer thing.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
The m277 is great at things like beefing up bass signals, and compressing spiky, peaky stuff. The tube drive has more of a creamy, smoothing effect, and isn't like a gritty screaming distortion, it's just all fat and beefy. The 669 and 679 do the lo-fi grinding distortions and oscillating fuzz. It's not as loud as the 669 and 679, but it can do a nice hi-fi stereo sound, and it can pump a cellphone up to modular level when cranked. The drive panning is something I've never had much need for, but I've tried it and it works well enough. The stereo panning is very good and responds well to CV. Output 1 is also normalled to output 2, so you can use it to stereoize & pan a mono signal. The drive and volume can also be CV'd for sidechain stuff and noisedrum duties. Like any nice luxury VCA, it's not great on HP, but it makes things interesting and brings a certain character to the mix.oscillateur wrote:I think some people here have a Trogotronic m277 (Warpsmasher ?)...

Here's an old one where it's pumping up the plain old kick and snare from Peaks:

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
I've been playing the same patch for the past few days and finding endless permutations with relatively simple building blocks, most of which within the inherent design of the Mannequins modules and Rene. My conception of what I need in my system is starting to flip on it's head.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
Been in this boat for a bit thinking about my set up. I have a 9u, and I see such wonderful patches made with a simpler 6u rack. I think starting out its good to have extra space to try new shit out, but I think eventually after trying a few more modules on my want list I'll be able to figure out what I bond with the most and narrow it down.kbit wrote:I've been playing the same patch for the past few days and finding endless permutations with relatively simple building blocks, most of which within the inherent design of the Mannequins modules and Rene.

On the other end, lusting after the new roland mixer module. While understand mixing can be done outside of eurorack, I like the idea of keeping it all in one case for a quick set up and this checks a lot of boxes.

Youtube Channel?

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
DFAM and Subharmonicon are definitely in my future. Maybe a Grandmother too. I'm honestly thinking of ditching most of my euro to be a Moog fanboy. I'd probably just build a small effects rack to go along with it.Muse FTW wrote:DFAM in your future? I've heard a little of the Subharmonicon from Moogfest and I cannot wait for this to come out.
