Modular Demo

[alanp]

A couple people have asked, once or twice. A build thread.

They might wish they hadn't, now.

Wild stuff Alan! Out there, right out there...

[selfdestroyer]

Some sweet droning you got going there. COols stuff for sure.

Wow, amazing stuff!  Fun for years...

[brejna]

Amazing stuff! If I ever build something like this, problem would be: "How do I know that it works properly?"

[lincolnic]

Finally! So glad you made the demo. Great work, sounds like a blast to play with.

Alan, I don't know what's cooler: hearing your synth or hearing your voice! You sound different than it thought you would, but you totally nail the accent!!

Awesome, awesome modular. Man, I want to get into that. Thanks for posting.

[alanp]

Nail the accent? Which accent is that?

I don't hear any accent

Um, er... yeah, I was talking about the filter module. It's, uh, vowel-like. I hear a distinct kiwi lilt.

Didn't want to start a whole new thread, but I'd like some comments on the audio quality

[lincolnic]

Man, that sounds so good I'm seriously considering taking up another expensive hobby.

Thanks! Rather than use the crappy camera mic, for this one I plugged the synth into the Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 interface, and edited the two together in Lightworks (using turning on the drum machine as a synch point.) I had that stupid little tune stuck in my head for the rest of the night.

Really cool to hear it all in action. Hours of fun just twiddling knobs and experimenting I bet!

Yeah, using a proper audio interface makes a world of difference.

Drum machines and synths are meant for each other, I think. It was awesome when Brian Eno did it in 1975 and it's still awesome in 2015!
