Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
Very cool tracks Bob! 
I am definitely going to add to the track that I posted, it is for submitting to a Ciat-Lonbarde Compliation album. I wish I had a Cocoquantus to go with my PlumButter. Ciat Lonbarde stuff would go well with you did on that EP Bob.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
I can't wait for my Clouds to show up! Was tempted by the Elements as well but I just couldn't justify both12XU2A3X3 wrote:anyone grip any of the new mutable instruments stuff? i have a clouds coming my way

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
I'm gonna start saving for an Elements. That thing looks insane. I'm running out of space though, so I guess I'll have to get another case first. Why didn't I listen when everyone told me to go 6u instead of 3u?

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
I think I'm going to spring for the Elements during it's second run. I want to grab a Clouds asap though. These guys are like trying to Strymon pedals when they are first released. Mad rush to see who will carry them, then immediate disappointment when you find out they are sold out.  Just don't tell the P&W guys about Mutable Instruments. I can't stand the thought of more good gear being bastardized for ambient looping videos on Youtube.

 I'm just glad I bought one of those 9u bento boxes. That way I could add another row when I was ready. Well I nearly filled that up, and I grabbed that 6u case that antennafarm had in the b/s/t. The way things are going though I might have to have finally get around to building one large case to put everything in. Even expanding from the 2 84hp cases to 104hp would be a big help. But, then I get on Modular Grid and start thinking anything less than 150hp isn't going to cut it.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
Yo dawg! How're you digging that Clouds? Still waiting for batch #2 to become available in the next month or two.12XU2A3X3 wrote:anyone grip any of the new mutable instruments stuff? i have a clouds coming my way
 
 Sooooo... my setup may have exploded in the past few weeks. I have a couple more orders coming in, but once they're here I'm going to reorganize my cases and take a pic of my setup. Here's my Modulargrid rack of what it will look like when it's all said and done.

The top row is a TipTop Happy Ending Kit that I have in my studio rack with my recording interface, and other studio goodies. The Expert Sleepers modules allow me to send audio/cv to and from ProTools via adat. Looove it. Rows 2-4 are in a 9u Bento Box with TipTop rails/ears, and 2 uZeus power supplies. That case is sitting on a 6u Doepfer Low Cost Base, which are the bottow 2 rows. The case in the Modulargrid layout is 150hp, which is the size of case I'm hoping to build with help from a buddy, so everything can sit in one case in the studio. I am only using 84hp max on each row in order to give myself an idea of how much larger a 150hp case would be for me. I may only go 104hp on my case build, but when I think of what modules I want to buy next that empty space quickly fills up.

Roll call! What are you guys rocking these days. It's been a while since anyone posted their rigs. I neeeeeed pictures... or Modulargrid layouts will work too.

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
This is what I'm currently rocking: 

But I have a 12U 84hp Ginko case coming on the way and a couple modules, which will give me:

The top row is empty for expansion, and I'll have to add the uZeus back in because of the ridiculously large power consumption of the Nebulae
And eventually I want to work towards something like this:

Although my eventual plan is changing all the time as I learn more about synths or when new modules come out
It's also missing a couple things that I'd like, mostly the MI Elements, the Make Noise Phonogene, and the Tiptop Circadian Rhythm
And it has a few things that I don't know if I really need like the Addac mixer, a second Disting, or the uScale. I kind of just added those in to fill up space 
 
Also really want one of these:

Re: Can we talk about modular synths?
So I've built myself a format jumbler/true bypass looper to throw on my board and Ive used a beat step as a laptop controller for a while now and I now im working on getting the stuff from this rack I dont already have.

The processing is gonna get wild and my wallet is crying.
