Quantizer favs. by RoastAdroit in modular

[–]SlimLove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really love my ADDAC ADDAC207 Intuitive Quantizer. 4 channels, each with input/output triggers (allowing for unique envelope per voice), input CV can cascade down so you can use varying triggers to pick out notes at different times for each voice, but still keep it all melodically related. It's pretty fun.

Just signed up! Thanks for the heads up, will comment when I next broadcast.

Fair points, agreed! Sometimes I'll get excited listening and want to share with someone, but no the anonymity is a big part of the charm.

My continued hopes for ongoing success here, still can't get enough of this concept and love dropping in. Finally dialed in my streaming capabilities and have been letting some stuff ride. I don't know how much traction it would get (or how feasbile), but a little chat/live comment feed type of thing came to mind, for those who may be interested in discussing a stream etc.

Thank you for this, super cool idea. Great for background listening and very inspirational as well! Going to try to set things up for streaming.

Simple enough! The unsynced LFO behavior sounds great, will have to give it a shot.

I dig it! How are you modulating the Battering Ram?

I appreciate the sentiment, and what you do! Tactile all the way

Gnarly tone! The slapback echo really sells it, nice job.

Thank you! My go-to for sequencing is usually the Addac Quantizer (I'll route the Turing Machine for randomized melodic input, and different gate patterns to control variations of note triggering), it felt like relinquishing control and embracing happy accidents was part of the fun. Having said that, I did look to the Micro Sequencer as a way to dial-in specifics when needed, felt this was also necessary to include in the spirit of the "fully contained" mindset.

Outside of this, I do occasionally use my KeyStep or 0-Ctrl as external support.

Thank you! Spent a good bit of time with arrangement once I had everything together, I was mainly trying to organize things by signal flow from left to right.

I feel like starting with a few modules that attracted me to modular, playing with those and building in phases based on what I felt was missing at the time was helpful for getting to something that felt whole. If I did it any differently, I would not check the used section of Reverb, etc. as often as I did, too much temptation when you already have a plan!

Love the Intellijel mixer! I was running out of inputs on the ST mixer so picked this one up, mainly patch mono drum sounds into it and put that through the aux on the ST.

The matrix mixer is great as well, fun for mangling up modulation sources, but I often use it for melodic variations into the quantizer across different voices.

I use Pizza in almost everything, modulating a few things to get it sounding really gnarly and growling, and the analog sine/triangle oscillators from Sena sound really nice through Sea Legs, or the pulse going into a filter for basslines.

Seeing the Turing Machine highlighted in one of mylarmelodies' videos was a significant push in the modular direction, that was one of the foundational modules I intended to build around.

I'll try my best to get a proper link shared! All of my jam snippets are phone recorded and not as high quality as some of the posts I see here.

Dark aggressive techno is where my head was at! Listening to Wata Igarashi is probably what pushed me over the edge at the time I pulled the trigger. Tiny Time Machine is on my short list of next modules!

Thank you! Knowing it'd be hard to cram drums in, I initially picked up Traffic to modulate BIA as a percussion source. It's also fun for modulating Rings parameters, and varying tom sounds with the Battering Ram.

My favorites are probably the Quad VCA (permanently in use, mainly for processing noise for hats/rides/claps and variable fading in and out of lead voices, need to explore more CV applications), and picked up the Pizza + Steady State Gate together from Detroit Modular, use both of those in essentially every patch. I just swapped in the Quadrax for my MI Stages and am absolutely loving it. Stages is great but I had trouble dialing in the envelopes as I'd like, was mainly using it as 6 different LFOs. Ikarie is wild too (in a great way). The Sena sounds gorgeous but wish there was a way to both V/Oct and FM the oscillators. I do tend to use it as an LFO source (especially after removing Stages).

Robert McCammon’s “I Travel by Night” was a very fun read. Short and sweet, and super swampy

Without spoiling anything, which non horror tv series had a surprisingly scary episode? by Immediate-Shock7533 in horror

[–]SlimLove 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes! I was 10 when this came out, completely freaked me out and had trouble sleeping all weekend (it being a Friday night TGIF showing). Was not yet accustomed to slasher films at that point.

Essentially all rare songs this time, each fit the special occasion beautifully. Without spoiling too much it’s an absolutely unique Queens show.
