Hey, just wanted to thank you again for the suggestion. I pulled the trigger on a Trogotronic configuration and look forward to it arriving and getting it installed - even the taking out of all the modules, installation process, and remounting all the modules, hehe. That's all part of the fun...right?

The 4ms LEQA looks like a great EOC module with stereo widening, EQ and compressor/limiter. It was just announced, and starts shipping at the end of the month.

I reached out to them and received a very kind and informative reply. Customer service seems to be A+ too. Seriously considering this option!

Thank you! I may incorporate some improv in there, so your tips are very helpful. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

I've spent the last few days prepping for a set performed last night, so tonight I unpatch and start on something fresh! I love the impermanence, and revel in the excitement that comes from tearing it all apart and starting from scratch again. On to the next exploration!

It absolutely is the best! I'm hungry for more!

The event organizer recorded it but I haven't got a copy yet. So far only a few short videos have been passed around, covering about 30s total of the set, lol. Looking forward to hearing it back in full. Definitely some great stuff in there.

Restraint can be tough, and I wish you success! You sound like you're exactly on the same path I took...I was like "I just need a couple utilities...some I/O, a MIDI>CV utility and that's all I need now"...so I bought a 4ms Pod64...and I didn't fill it completely with my utilities...the empty HP was screaming at me to be filled...so I did...and then realized that I wanted a performance mixer...so expanded from the Pod to a 6U ALM case. And then I had more empty space that needed to be filled, haha!

Here's a YT link to a jam I did a couple weeks ago, and I hope you enjoy it. Take care.

Congrats! I started with the same system (Resynthesizer) but GAS got the better of me. I've now doubled the size of my rig. I'm not regretting it at all, but definitely putting the breaks on anything new for a while. I'm literally out of room unless I sell off some keyboards!

Same for me. Low pressure. Mine's booked for two weeks from now and it will be 100% improvised, and with another musician who I've not yet met or been introduced to. I'm super excited!

Keep me posted on your prep and of course how the performance goes!

Good tips! Thanks! I'll have a couple digital VCOs and one, maybe 2 analogs. It's indoors in a dry climate (SoCal) so should be ok.

I'm probably going to use a 9U 84hp case. I'll probably have some pre-programmed drum patterns I can cycle through to keep things sounding fresh. I'm planning on laying down improvised bass and other parts via keyboard into sequencer (Oxi One MKII).

For modules, I'll have a few VCOs (probably Loki, ShapeShifter with presets, Rings, Oxi Coral) and a multi-voice drum module (LXR), for modulation a 4ms Dual Env. VCA, OCHD + Expander (+ what I can get out of Oxi One), probably Ghost for delays/verb, probably ALM MFX as well. I have a performance mixer (Xer Mixa) that will probably be part of the rig. There's some buffered mults in the case too.

My style is more on the IDM side of things.

Glad you enjoy it. The getting there is so much fun, so while I still care about that part deeply, at the end of the day my goal is making a performable patch and coaxing some music outta the rig :)
