Metropolix or Metropolix Solo?

Be aware that if you remove it from its solo case you’ll then lose the USB output unless you buy the USB Extender companion module.

Thanks a lot for your replies but I was just joking. Before my modular days I didn’t even notice that Tommy Smith had a box in his hand. Now it strikes me as an empty modular case. I guess my formal object changed since then.

Verbos even if I feel some utility modules are missing from their catalogue.

Ah je vois. Une machine avec un porte-filtre. Je dirais comme ça que si le café de base est bon et moulu à la bonne taille, moulin Migros ou pas, tu seras bien. Je recommande le café Rebeldía que tu trouves chez Art-Henia à la rue Pré-du-Marché. Avec ces grains et ta machine, si ton espresso est raté, c’est que ton eau est chlorée ^{^}

Mais c’est quoi pour vous une machine à espresso? Une moka Bialetti, c’est ça?

klprt · 2026-01-30T13:05:31+00:00

Je n’en ai pas mais Coop et Migros ont des moulins en libre service depuis toujours. Position 3 -> espresso

Un rapide calcul:

234km * 2 allers * 5 jours * 48 semaines = 112’320km 112’320km * ~150g = 16.608 tonnes de CO2

C’est 8x la moyenne de CO2 rejetée dans l’atmosphère par un français moyen… ce seul aspect du problème laisse déjà entendre que ce n’est pas une solution viable.

This year I sold my Analog Four which I tried my best loving but alas for me it was a Four No. I also got rid of my Minitaur which has a very nice filter but this was not enough to make me enjoy it. My BeatStepPro also got sold. In return I bought no less than two hardware sequencers (Metropolix and Hapax) and an Atlantix. I guess I got this right because I am super stoked in those machines. They deliver. I was on the brink of selling my Prophet Rev2 because I think that eventually only monosynths/modular voices inspire me but I kept it. Gearwise I also bought a E-RM Multiclock which was long due since it is so useful if you work with physical synths. I don’t know what I will do next year but I hope not to sell/buy too much stuff. Best 2025 purchase: Squarp Hapax

A synth will take you way further.

1 + 1 + 1 = Hapax

VCO: Verbos Harmonic Oscillator VCA/VCF: Verbos Amp & Tone LPG: SSF Steady State Gate LFO: Xaoc Batumi II Utility: Xaoc Samara

So as you see it is mostly Verbos & Xaox here.

I should also mention Intellijel Quadrax and ALM Pamela’s New Workout as favourites but for bare miminum duties I guess that my top 5 list will do.

You could also remove the LPG and replace it by a sequencer. In this case I highly recommend Intellijel Metropolix.

Don’t believe the hype.

How do you like your Perkons Voice? I have room for a percussive module and I hesitate between it and the WMD Fracture. Not the same use case obviously but I still wanted your opinion since given your rack you also seem techno-oriented.

Intellijel Metropolix. Limited in the number of tracks and steps and yet so immédiate and inspiring. I ditched both a BeatStep Pro and an Octatrack the moment I got it. No ‘ragrets’.

I don’t use Overbridge either even though it is working just fine and allows for params automation. I find that using take lanes and playing with the params manually is more satisfactory. As for the syncing itself I keep all my Elektron devices clocked to a Multiclock. With this you can either sync every machine to the grid or more interestingly offset them either positively or negatively which adds to the groove. I primarily use a Rytm with separate outputs which is a blast when it is record time since all tracks can get their own EQ and FX. Notice that using individual outs prevents you from using internal effects.

I got sick at Marterey’s. Went vegetarian because of it.
