Thank you for listening, folks.

I primarily used the modules in this rack:

...with a few changes over time. The album took me over a year to finish.

My damn 2hp Arp broke. This is the 3rd 2hp module I've had go fucked on me. First, I had a BURST which would not fire BURSTS. Then, I had an LPF which would not FILTER. Now, I have an ARP which only spits out ultra-high pitched gibber. The tech support is good but the product quality is bad (from my experience).




Don't forget to listen to my opus HOGMUNGUS, a #eurorack #modularsynth epic. Link in sig.

oof. that sucks butts. sucks them inside OUT. i've had a ton of 2hp, only one that broke was the VCA that my cat knocked off the table. not... really their fault.

Day 10, gave in and accepted the use of Amen samples. some Cycles, some Pulsar, some Black Box -

hey behndy, I like Day 14. The Pulsar seems WICKED. Do you have thoughts to share about Pulsar after having it for a bit? When I get a job after this pandemic, I'm going to hit one with a vengeance but not yet, no, not yet as I watch my savings dwindle in the face of MORBO-19!!!!

it's a... conflicting beastie for me. i feel like it's overpriced, mostly because income os severely lessened right now, but it is about $1900 shipped. and i get disappointed at the scarcity of patch points. like, there's a TON, but for tonal control? 2 or 3 on each of the... machines? sound section? each of the 4 noise makey bits. it's probably ignorance on my part, but i can't figure out a good amount of programmed MIDI or CV control.

but then i use it. and every single time it sounds amaaaaazinnnnng. and way different than anything else i have.

so. been super focusing on learning the Pyramid, but need to sit down and play along with the vids Vlad did.
