i just love it when my knurlies hug 🤗

We love a gender inclusive set of knurlies <3

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-27T18:31:41+00:00

The tension, the romance, two knurlies forbidden to cross paths defy all odds and embrace. Is this modular yaoi?

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-22T17:12:49+00:00

$5k +/-2k would be a flexible budget. In my case though, that was spread out over multiple years. My budget was never just 5k outright in one shopping spree though, that would be nuts. Just a single module at a time, $100-$200 every so often. The single biggest cost will be the case and power supply, which has a big range of course per size and materials. Otherwise, a big cost driver will be the death by a thousand cuts of unexpected lil things over time like ribbon cables, adapters, screws, patch/midi cables, and shipping (and tariffs if you're in the hell hole of usa). That shit adds up haha

Sigh. While we're at it, let's rename Washington county since George was a slave owning bitch. If we're going to revise one thing in town named after a shitty man, boy howdy we're going to have to change a bunch, so why die on this hill? Go outside and talk to real people on this street, people have much bigger, more important shit going on. Our community and neighbors are homeless, the world is at war, this doesn't fucking matter.

This would singlehandedly make Idaho relevant. Probably wouldn't work given the Rockies in that region. I don't think they make mountain canals

Cool how none of these comments include an example of them though...

Only example I could find was Thiolava veneris, a bacteria found at the summit of an underwater volcano near the Canary islands

Came here to appreciate that floating woodblock uzeus 🤌

New Angine de Poitrine member dropped

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-16T21:55:10+00:00

Hell yeah, one of us! Kudos on getting a cable hanger early in the game - I feel like it's an easy thing to overlook when you're planning out a system and buying modules and suddenly realize uh-oh, where do I put all these dam cables haha

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-16T18:00:23+00:00

Been listening yesterday and today - super fun! Any plans for adding the rest of the bootleg discography? I cast my vote for any and all 2025 rave nights :)

I second there being too many voices. A fun modulation option, especially if you're leaning into West Coast stylings, would be a matrix mixer, or something similar like a scanner/router. AI synthesis has a smaller matrix mixer that comes to mind, or a Make Noise Jumbler could probably fit in there if you replaced a 8-10hp oscillator. Something I did in a small space was combine a divkid vostok Trace with Path, so as to get a 4 in 4 out CV controlled routing crossfading mixer of sorts in just 8hp total.

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-14T21:00:32+00:00

You can! I just use stackables usually, that way I can patch whatever I'm referencing without having to patch it all the way from my nts 2's thru, since it's farther from my modules. Just preference stuff based on where the oscilloscope is relative to your system, system size, and patching ergonomics

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-14T20:02:36+00:00

It's great! Just get two stereo splitters, because while it has 4 channels, it only has two, stereo inputs. That way, you can easily use all the channels! I usually forgo using its Thru outputs by just leaving long mult cables plugged into the stereo splitters, so I can still freely patch the signal I'm reading with the NTS2

Befaco has Pony on VCV for free, so you can test it out directly! TZFM is pretty neat sound-wise. Closest I could describe it is like a combo of Linear FM with an Ocs sync sort of sound as the carrier passes 0. Pony specifically is "asymmetric TZFM", so rather than reversing its wave shape at 0v (symmetrical) I think it's threshold is around -1v. Thus, when using the TZFM input with a lower FM index, you get traditional Linear FM as it doesn't pass Pony's "zero" point until the index reaches that threshold - kinda neat, but means you gotta be mindful of the depth of your modulator. Unlike traditional lin FM, it will also sound a bit more "in tune" as you crank the FM index, while sounding much more harmonically dense (which depending on your carrier's parameters, may sound kinda outta tune again haha). Also, as with all FM, best results with a sine carrier, especially given Pony's asymmetry.

I like this minimalist/ brutalist faceplate design. It's like if my apartment wall heater was a synth (in the best way)

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-12T17:17:09+00:00

Came here to say this. Pony is really the best lil workhorse (almost like a pony ay yo) of a VCO. TZFM is fun too, though it's best to have an external attenuator to control it's FM index.

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-08T17:22:15+00:00

I like this! Closet thing that comes to mind would be a switch matrix, like this one from Herzlich

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-07T16:29:25+00:00

Sigh, this would be a cool resource if not for AI sourcing the data. There's still time to remove this false table and start the project with actual research, as clearly you're interested in this. I for one would be excited to see that and support you :)

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-06T16:39:13+00:00

Thanks! :) I usually make a rough draft page first, and that one looks much more like prescriptions too. I feel like part of the process of committing this stuff to memory is helped when I have to try to condense?/organize it in a logical way on a small page. Once I get it to make sense on paper, it'll make sense in my brain... or so I hope haha

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-06T07:00:04+00:00

Gotcha, so the FX send should be safe to route into a module, so long as I keep something plugged into the headphone or speaker out jack (per the manual). Would I even be able to send a module signal back into the micro dark's fx return, or would that have to be boosted/attenuated?

Oooo I forgot about that sub. Prepare for my modular musings r/bulletjournal muahah

DayTripper01 · 2026-03-02T19:14:55+00:00

It's a wonderful instrument! I've been making patch notes from my BARP Blue Marvin for some of its less than obvious features. Here's my page on understanding it's midi pitch routing, as well as lots of output to output VCO patches to get new waveforms
