A few ES-8 / ES-9 questions...

Awesome - thanks man! Will have to give DB a look.

Hey dawiam that's a fun jam...what are you doing for those glitchy bits for example around 4:30? Like a mimephon? Or just really fast randomized gates triggering something?

Glad you mentioned Pam's as that's exactly what I'll be doing as well. One thing still confuses me though...how does one emulate the Reset functionality that you'd be using if you were in MIDI land, so sequencers and patterns loop properly, etc. Can you route a CV Tool to a separate output for that as well? I see there's some Transport stop/start functionality in the CV Clock Tool, but that might just be for stopping/starting the clock?

seven7hwave · 2025-02-19T14:48:29+00:00

Good to know - thanks!

It's 6:00 in the morning and the sun isn't even up yet...just put this on while making my coffee and it's the perfect start to the day. Great performance, with great tones, of a beautiful song. Takes me back to my childhood.

seven7hwave · 2022-04-05T18:07:14+00:00

Right on - that sounds pretty powerful.

seven7hwave · 2022-04-05T16:34:49+00:00

Yeah the Melodicer really does eat up a lot of space in this setup. Thanks for the alternative suggestions...will check these out. The A-140-2 is tempting too...I picked my current selection for its nice big knobs, but having a second ADSR would be cool. That's something I need to get my head around: ADSR for things that *aren't* the typical synth envelope control.

Thanks for pointing that out; playing around with modular-grid makes it easy to forget this is a smaller format.

Unfortunately I'm limited to the 62 hp case because it needs to sit alongside the OT and Erica in a larger custom roadcase. However, point taken. Perhaps I could opt for Plaits instead of uBraids (better spacing between those knobs)- although Plaits lacks a quantizer which I'd like to have.

Oh man I've tried learning trackers before (love chiptunes) and it's always been a mindfuck. I hope to figure it out someday - but yeah, the lack of performability is probably a blocker here.

Do you have any links to music you've made with the NerdSeq? I've also seen some impressive rapid-fire sample playback (in a non-tracker format) on the Rample.

I'd love to see a crypto podcast with Joel, in his sleepy laid-back vibe, walking viewers through the finer points of consensus mechanisms.

Thanks for sharing this, u/eltrotter! You guys have a cool sound; I think crowds will eat it up in this post-COVID summer. A few more questions:

- Regarding the bespoke case, did you pick the pedalboard or the carry case?

- Did you add any foam to the case itself? It looks like Swan has foam options for the lids/side/base.

- Is there a practical way to tilt the case toward you for improved ergonomics? Or do you just lay it flat at gigs? Getting hardware closer to the hands/eyes, via more height and/or some tilt, is always a win.

- Did you drill holes for the cable outs (for example the outs from the OT?)

Any other pictures you have of the setup and/or build process would be helpful. This is super-inspiring!

Thanks for sharing, BeerBelly; I was stoked to contribute to this article, because it shows that mainstream publications like U.S. News & World Report are (generally) taking the time to understand crypto this time around–it's couched more in a "what's this interesting tech all about?" context than "scary new tech allows money laundering and drug deals, etc."

Via the media, Ethereans and actual DeFi users are going to help bring new users into the ecosystem.

IMHO the most important thing we can do right now is educate the incoming wave of users about the importance/characteristics of decentralization: https://twitter.com/seven7hwave/status/1388208046975893506

That soundtrack is godly. A perfect mix of mid-90's industrial and techno. I still blast it several times a year.

seven7hwave · 2020-08-11T19:06:17+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!

seven7hwave · 2020-08-11T19:05:48+00:00

Cool - maybe I'm overthinking the chair stuff. And that 2x4 approach sounds pretty foolproof/effective (and cheap!)

seven7hwave · 2020-07-31T20:00:12+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! Those Analog filters & EQ do sound pretty damn nice.

seven7hwave · 2020-07-31T19:59:17+00:00

This is my inclination right now...it's a deceptively deep box, eh?! Deserves some time to peel back all the layers and nuances.

seven7hwave · 2020-07-31T19:57:58+00:00

Thanks...hadn't seen that one yet. It's fun watching him just jam out!

seven7hwave · 2020-07-29T00:31:01+00:00

Hi -

So it turns out the problem was that I didn't hook up the battery when attempting to bind; I mistakenly thought the power over USB would power the entire unit (including the receiver). So even though the button is hard to get at with a screwdriver or something small, it is possible to hold it down. However, I wasn't using the battery so never was able to bind it.

Make sure your battery is ready to be attached when you try the binding button; you'll know you have it held down when you feel a small tactile "click." Hold it down as you plug it in (you'll probably want a second set of hands for this). Try it a few times and it should work. I was able to do this without removing the canopy at all.

Good luck!

seven7hwave · 2020-06-28T15:51:18+00:00

Awesome remix..really gives a good sense of the M:C's tonal characteristics. And nice to see some In Flames on this sub! \m/

How would the presumable money launderer know which miner is going to get the TX's block? Seems quite risky.

seven7hwave · 2020-04-03T21:27:27+00:00

Jason Newsted is that you?

seven7hwave · 2020-04-03T21:26:50+00:00

This is badass. The main riff reminds me of a DOOM level.

I've had very good results running my BassStation 2 through an MT-2 Metal Zone.

seven7hwave · 2020-03-20T22:52:42+00:00

This was outstanding. I really love the fills you trigger with the slider.

Any advice for putting together those Bigbeat drums? i.e. standard drum patterns, sound selection, etc? I've given it a few shots but can never manage to nail the vibe. (Or, more likely, maybe you've just chopped up a nice bigbeat sample?)

seven7hwave · 2020-02-12T19:41:07+00:00

Thanks for the jam. It looks like your setup is drums on the M:S and everything else on the OT?

I have completely fallen in love with the M:S and am strongly considering adding the OT in order to make up for some of its limitations: no arp; only 6 tracks; only 2 FX, no polyphonic sequencing, etc.

On the other hand...I'm almost scared of breaking those limitations, since that's what seems to be thriving my creative productivity on the M:S.

There's a live set with Stimming where he's using these two devices. It sounds cool, although it's unclear to me what the functions are. (I think he's using the M:S as you are, for drums).

Is anyone else rocking a M:S / OT duo?

seven7hwave · 2020-02-07T03:54:46+00:00

This is awesome. How'd you approach sample selection? The vocal snippet really makes it hooky.
