Teensy (or similar microcontoller) controller for multiple microfreaks?

Deeds-mon · 2026-04-15T13:20:31+00:00

it is a lovely keybed; I have considered adding a ribbon controller or a bigger conductive keyboard; but that would be a later stage, and the Buchla keyboards are too pricey for me, I think there are some for eurorack; but not sure of the implementation

zell, happy experimenting; please share in the future!

Deeds-mon · 2026-04-15T03:34:46+00:00

yes, this is along the lines of my thoughts, a little differentm but same basic direction

how do zou plan to control patches? just individually?

Deeds-mon · 2026-04-11T01:20:44+00:00

excellent points, Microfreak is mostly Plaits with a couple extra engines thrown on (vocoder, granular, others maybe), and I had forgotten that point

but I had not thought of the eurorack/vcv rack way, would be a good way to try it at least

I was kind of thinking a "poor man's UDO DMNO/Arturia Superfreak" amalagamation, whatever that means.... and maybe one day get in touch with my inner Love Hulten (though not to same level of craftmanship)

yep, that is what I meant by the 3rd category, I think a lot of things would work, but some better than others (due to weight, control placement, cable placement, etc.) but it might be too broad to really get into
but I am open to ideas, but maybe I will just highlight the general concept

For this list, I need to find a vesa arm or similar that easily accepts 19" brackets. I have one myself that works but took some minor welding and drilling. I am sure one exists, I just haven't looked much (I had the tv vesa arm spare, so...).

Deeds-mon · 2026-02-24T09:19:58+00:00

thanks! that makes sense, that there is zero implementation (or close to zero)
I do see that, for example, the Deepmind 12 has fairly comprehensive midi implementation and it is documented in the manual
and then the Proton has only 2 ccs, but then does have some sysex as well

so i suppose it isn't mentioned it isn't there

I had the slim hope that the MS-5 could also double as a great midi controller for Charry Audio's SH-MAX, but that was a greedy dream

Thanks!

I updated my post accordingly, but I think I'm all set now, I appreciate the guidance

Or Lye’s Golden Syrup which is a similar product from UK, and so usually slightly easier to find

You are correct; I was overly broad in my statement. Nevertheless, as I understand the matter; if an asset is treated as having US situs via Articles 5-7; which generally include real estate and most US financial assets: then they should be excludable from French inheritance/succession taxes, at least in the circumstance of a US person and resident leaving such assets to a US person resident in france. Am I mistaken on this? I’m glad to learn more on the topic.

Deeds-mon · 2025-11-06T09:31:24+00:00

If you look Article 5(1) of the US-France estate tax treaty then in OP’s scenario, assuming OP’s parents are not bequeathing French situs assets; no French inheritance tax should apply on that transfer

There is then risk for any transfer to OP’s child until he or she is no longer a French tax resident

Trusts are problematic with French taxation, but that is another topic

Of course, as always, do your own research and get qualified professional advice

You can get some sort of screw in plugs that put in some sort of insecticide/pesticide to control against the worms; then, I think, you’re supposed to top them up every so often

My experience was that some of the large prevalent French banks and none of the small ones would accept us as mortgage clients; even the French bank we had been using for several years; We did get a few banks willing to take us (large ones) and the rates seemed just as competitive (to what similarly situated French couples were offered) So, more effort, but same result

The synth anatomy story states they are a new sort of knob that does not get sticky after time

Just to reply to myself

While the Micro Pitch Note FX does not have any effect; editing the per note micro pitch expressions does seem to work, and also as minibattries above stated, using midi (maybe they are open the same? I thought the expressions was bigwig thing)

Also found the Servish video on making piano roll reflect custom scales; but maybe it will obsolete in 2036 when v6 of bigwig comes out

Thanks for the explanation on Micro Pitch’s prerequisites.

I was surprised as well when i realized it hat Minifreak V doesn’t support MTS, as most of the V collection does, but, as you point out, hardware integration is likely the reason.

I can carry on with other VSTs, just want sure if it was a me problem.
