You're a horrible influence

Seriously though, I just checked what modules are in the Tape and Microsound Machine and compared them with my setup:
Wogglebug - Marbles
Maths - Zadar/Just Friends
Morphagene - Nebulae
QPAS - Three Sisters
Mimeophone - Prism/Chase Bliss Mood

Definitely want to get in on that Voltera action. Still salty about my silver Metron but I don't have the stones to replace the faceplate lol.

As an aside, I released an album today! If my limited cassette run sells out fast enough the distributor might want to do a vinyl pressing. :!!!:

Here's a link for anyone who wants to check it out. :hug:

You people are weird. My only modular gear-related desire now is to get a 4U 62HP palette case and use a simpler version of what I have in my current 7U 84 HP (Teletype + expanders, Just Friends, W/, Radio Music, Ultrafold, Pico DSP, Nearness and a few utilities).

Also, I went to the Tokyo Festival of Modular last week and there was someone representing Earthquaker and showing a prototype of Afterneath in euro form. Planned for next year, still very much a work in progress. They added a control that changes the behaviour of the Drag control (which I think determines the sort of recurrent patterns this thing does, main reason I traded mine when I had the pedal).

I'll see if I can upload the pics I took from my phone.

There was also a whole system worth of modules from a new company called Tenderfoot Electronics based in Taiwan. Very nice people and cool looking modules. Also pics to come if I can.

I've seen them posting about the Afterneath prototype a few times. I was never really interested in it as a pedal, but I think it makes a lot more sense in euro/for synths. I don't have room for it though.
