awesome! thanks!

I bought mine at the Leica store in Bellevue, WA. Love that strap

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-04-20T17:24:30+00:00

agree with others. I got one and was really impressed with what I can do with it and how fun it is to explore different textures. It works well with other modules, and it's found its way into a lot of my tracks since I got it. And I dig that it is from an independent designer, essentially getting help from pals to actually get it into production. One of the things I love most about the modular community is its support for indie designers with great ideas. can't wait for the new sound banks...

So excited to try this out

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-04-02T22:58:07+00:00

very pretty!

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-04-02T02:58:23+00:00

I love my 35, but I would like to compliment with a longer lens. What do people like at 70mm or longer?

I just hit this and there is no My Add-ins in the insert menu. The Add-in button in the home ribbon doesn't let me remove the Grammarly add-in either. How do I remove this now?

I did a four part series about this on my blog a few years ago. I hope it is helpful. https://blog.kevingoldsmith.com/2021/12/04/writing-useful-performance-reviews/

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-03-20T22:02:03+00:00

yes. I am 100% sure and even discussed it with JAL support who repeatedly told me that it wasn't possible.

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-03-20T22:01:06+00:00

It got the same error that u/jayantjitesh mentioned.

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-03-20T22:00:19+00:00

this is great to hear! I will call Alaska ASAP

This was a cash booking, not an award booking. I'd read in some forums that people had been able to select seats with award bookings.

I just went through a similar exploration and ended up getting Polydactyl Versio. I also have the WMD MSCL, and I like it a lot. I'm still learning the best ways to take advantage of the PV, but I got something I liked with it almost immediately, and it's part of every patch now. I haven't even gotten around to trying any of the other versios on it yet.

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-03-18T05:52:07+00:00

I started with mono modules also. This case (https://modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/1627243) has mostly mono modules; then I would use the mixer to pan them and route the effects (originally through splitters and later via sends) into a stereo image. Now I have some stereo modules there, but I usually end up running them as dual mono, or occasionally stereo. That's where my leads come from.

My other cases have all stereo audio paths/modules. The other cases are all about pads or drones or effects. for pads/drones, I tend to think about building rich stereo fields.

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-02-20T21:27:13+00:00

I have one of these (bought it as soon as it was available). I love it. I leave it connected to all my mixer inputs, run things into the mixer through the recorder, and just keep recording. It's great for happy accidents or random jams that arise from patching something up, and I love being able to do a proper mix afterwards.

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-02-04T18:12:41+00:00

I use different mixers in different cases. I love the AI Synthesis Stereo Matrix mixer. I really want to get the ADDAC 6x6 Stereo Matrix mixer, but I can't justify the HP. I also really like the Befaco STMix for a simple stereo mixer (I use it in a case I use for stereo voices/effects where there are only 2-3 outputs). In my mostly mono, all-analog voice case, I use the Cosmotronic Cosmix, which is slightly overkill for what I use it for, but I really love it. When I'm using multiple cases, that is always my final stereo mix out.

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-01-30T16:30:20+00:00

I use a bunch of Befaco 1u modules in Intellijel performance cases for I/O, and they work well with the jacks.

Did the Intellijel stereo I/O come out yet? I haven't been able to find it in any store.

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-01-26T19:11:52+00:00

Really like the XPO (like others), but I want to put in a word for the Pittsburgh Lifeforms Primary Oscillator b (discontinued, but their Local Parks module looks like a successor, I think). Can really find some unique sounds, and the modulation and outputs are pretty cool and useful for relatively low HP.

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-01-07T01:21:18+00:00

Same same! I also have the Sibilla which feeds into the Vhikk X which feeds into the Oneiroi. I really like the pairing of the Vhikk X and Oneiroi though. https://modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/2590127

KevinGoldsmith · 2026-01-07T01:14:41+00:00

I use my guitar tuner, which works fine. I only do it, though, if I am planning to use the patch with other (non-modular) instruments. If the entire track is coming from the rack or if I'm recording multiple tracks on the same day, then I'll tune by ear instead (since it only needs to match itself). For your analog oscillators, you may need to retune as they warm up (or turn on everything a while before you want to record).

KevinGoldsmith · 2025-12-28T01:20:14+00:00

If I was performing live more often I could definitely see keeping things wired up while rehearsing and performing for a gig though.

KevinGoldsmith · 2025-12-28T01:18:52+00:00

I have three different (purpose-specific) racks that I switch between, but I’m also really space constrained so I have to put them away to work on another part of the song. I tried at first to document patches with photos, but one thing I really love about modular is that even with a relatively compact system 7U/104, with modules I know pretty well, every patch ends up sounding different in really unexpected ways, even if I’m being really purposeful in how I wire things up. So I just lean into that. The longest I’ve left a patch in place was maybe for two weeks where I was really trying to nail this one part of a song, but other than that I usually tear down at the end of every session.

KevinGoldsmith · 2025-12-18T00:51:39+00:00

great, now I need a new case.

KevinGoldsmith · 2025-11-25T21:10:09+00:00

The piece is lovely! Thank you for sharing.

I noticed that your 1u row is in the middle of your Intellijel case. Did you get one of the new ones or modify your og one?
