For a while I considered making my rack smaller, but now I'm realizing that I'd be spending even more money on more cases and at this point I should just enjoy having a big rack.
SWN is on my radar. Really want a Planar 2, as well. Getting woo'd again by the Rainmaker.
fuck me i am so god damn frustrated with the Malekko VGates. i LOVE how they work, but i can not get them to be run well by Pam's. i've tried everything i can think of and the best i can get is to have VGate to reset right, but then stutter on the first beat and then run a beat behind.
does anybody have theirs running right? i would fucking LOVE to use them, but i would have to start programming a beat behind. which fucks with my head.
uff. same exact issue with 8+ and 4+.

Yeah! It's awesome. I haven't even really dove in yet, but I've never had something where I can just think of a beat and make it. Or just hit random and have it do it for me. But there's lots of level and performance capabilities. They're also super receptive to suggestions. Highly recommended! Also, wtch the 12(!) video tutorials WMD has posted. It lays it out super well. (See my previous post for a couple more thoughts, too!)

JUST GET A METRON ALREADY!!! Oh... wait... you already purchased one, right?
I got my 16n and I have so much regret getting the wood panel. It looks so, so bad
Oh well, I'll cover it in stickers or make a new one I guess. I still haven't had a chance to mess with it yet, but I'm really excited to pair my H9 with it. It's going to be so nice to actually have controls for each parameter! I hope the H9 takes my modular well, because that's my current plan.

Oh no dude! The aluminum panel I got looks pretty good. I know the wood panels are a veneer, wanna share a photo with us to see what's making it look bad?
It's definitely not a manufacturing issue or anything. It just looks like a cheap 80s fake wood veneer. Not really sure what I was expecting I should have just forked over the money for the aluminum panel.
I'll share a picture later tonight or tomorrow when I'm home from work.

I'm thinking maybe get 2x pressure points with brains, since they get you gate outs too for the sequence - but I'd be down to one 16-step sequence. This is hard.
Trying to find the module that sits between the verbos multistage sequencer and the voltage block.
Somewhere in there between is the perfect sequencer.
That sucks that Voltage Block is being shitty. I hope mine does not freeze up!
i wannnnted to love the Stilson HAMMAH. it's a Metropolis with 4 outs and way more control. YES PLEASE.
but. hated the interface. for me, way not enough feedback for a slider based sequencer.
dooood the FLXS. THE FLUXXXXXX SEXXXXXX. SO GOOD.
got my Sinc Bucina in, Ruina and CIP should be in by Saturday?
redid my whole rack, drums are Metron/Blck_Noir/Transient on the left, melodic stuff based around the FLXS and Arpitecht on the right. super excited to play with the Sinc Bucci Bucci today.
also, never had any problems with my VBlocks freeze wise. thing is a BEAST. still a bit sad i couldna get the VGates sexy sync'd.
SAD.

Nice. I look forward to seeing / hearing some drums demos with that set-up. The BLCK_NOIR is not for me (don't love the way it sounds and have all the other drum modules) but v. curious about the capabilities of the METRON.
For sequencing lately I am in love with the Trigger Riot + Beast-Tek Amoeba combo. Riot for precision hits, Amoeba for that good generative spice. Boom bap.
Lastly, the DFAM is so dope. I use it every day for sick fucking hats. It rules at hats, man. Then also it can do a million other things. Have just begun to explore some self-patching stuff which leads into infinity and I can see forever.
Finally messed around with the 16n today and I actually don't mind the wood panel as much any more. I think I might just need to change the knobs. Not sure to what, but the black/grey combo doesn't really go well.
Either way, it is super fun! I was really enjoying using it to control the Nebulae
Soooo, I sold my Sub 37 and reinvested the money in a 4U Intellijel case, some 1U modules, and a Cold Mac. It's basically going to be the same setup as that picture above, but with a Cold Mac, Veils, Ears, and Radio Music. And it will be much more portable since it's not connected to my TV.
One of these days I do intend to build a small video synth rack with that HEK and TV.
Looks like Muffwigger is down and the sole owner is being a twat despite receiving $1k a month in Patreon support and other donations during last year's fundraiser.

Yeah I think that's the way I'll end up going. It will look a lot cleaner.

Honestly, not surprised and not upset about it. I haven't been a fan of that place for a long while. I've seen way too many toxic interactions over there. We should just make an ilovemodular subforum over here like the ilovedoom one.
