Totally, and I’d be happy to take Marbles to provide aesthetic assistance.

Case looks fun though. Feel like Rings, Plaits, Marbles, and o_c would be plenty fun, add in all the other stuffs and you got a party.

Hey guys, been out of the loop for a couple months while moving to Colorado. Finally got here and got my little studio set up and playing again. Any modules come out I miss? I haven’t bought a single module in all this time.... I know, crazy! :animal:

However my Percussa SSP was mailed to me early July but just happened to be on the day we forwarded our address and because it required a signature and we weren’t there it was supposedly sent back but never scanned and now MiA. :facepalm: Bert says he’s in contact with them and I’ll get it one way or another so that’s good. Can’t wait to try that beast out.

Show went great tonight, played inside this awesome place called the Resonant Lung in Austin. Its a shipping container that's been converted to a giant midi-controllable pipe organ. I wasn't playing the pipes but the resonance of the space was kickass.

Ya'll who have made their own diy modules, how much cheaper is it to get a small system going?

dood. i LOVE that thing. it's so boss. and it is easy to sequence with starts and stops. digging using a FLXS1 gate out to meta-sequence it. so GOOD.

this is playing around with the tricks Baseck showcased on NE's blog, mixing different audio level CV and envelopes into the pitch (the first part until i patch a few Just Friends outs into some ins) -

that is CRAZY beautiful. i saw your Pre-Show Posts, and dayuuuuuum son. MOOF.

also, it was I'll_Be_Gone_By_Novemmmmmberrrrr that was asking about the Nebulae no? i like it, but i can't get the things i was hoping for out of it. not really clicking with it. if you want to try one out, hit me up.

also, Cursus Iteritas on the way. probably going to swap it for the Manis? dunno. we'll see!

i missssss wavetables, but love the NE approach so much. had a Cursus before, had nooooo idea what i was doing. so. moved it.

WOOT BLACK VERSION.

also, i REALLY like the 2 Hp Kick. grabbing the Snare and Hat.

also also, I LIKED THIS. SO REPOST.

i mean, it's really just stealing ideas from people that know more, but it's neat feeling like i learned something.

Manis and BIA really shine as drum oscillators, whereas Cursus is more of a straightforward wavetable osc. I had a cursus and really liked it but ended up swapping it for some other shiz. Love my Manis though.

jia. i DO like Mannie. a LOT. and it looks like i can probably keep all three. might have to move Ataraxix which is also cool as butts. dunno. we'll see!

also, mein GOTT thr Hemispheres looks amazing. not just the split screen/app functionality, but all the applets that are in the Suite? uO_c might stick this time.
