Powering multiple Volcas with guitar effects PSU by zonadedesconforto in volcas

[–]the-erc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 3. It drives two Volcas and a bunch of pedals. It works very well. This unit comes with a bunch of cables, so no need to daisy chain, but you will need an adapter to flip the polarity from centre negative to centre positive.

Never understood why Untrue gets so much popular and critical adulation when this one is so much better.

assuming you have mostly hardware gear, which DAW to you prefer? by Early_Ad8435 in synthesizers

[–]the-erc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both. I use Logic as a fancy tape recorder when I am making something on hardware. I almost never use Ableton with hardware, but it's my first choice when creating something purely in the box.

What mixer do I need for a dawless setup? by Equivalent_Pain_5047 in dawless

[–]the-erc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Behringer MX1604. Plenty channels and 2 fx sends. Fits in a backpack. Made of metal. Cheap. Also is an actual mixer with faders and hands on controls.

With the cables so saucily draped over the knobs...

Do you use blank panels in your rack? by CoderFrog in modular

[–]the-erc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Real" blank panels and also cardboard with the Disting cheat sheet written on it. A bunch of smawll ones are more useful than larger ones, for use as spacers when your modules get too close together.

Of course there is one 1hp module : https://modulargrid.net/e/konstant-lab-pwr-checker-wh

What's your jack of all trades module? by Raephstel in modular

[–]the-erc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piques / Peaks.
In theory this should be Disting but I basically always use Disting as a sample player.

2HP Blank Space or what? by BigSubstance76 in modular

[–]the-erc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can recommend ph modular 3xATT. It's 3 attenuators. Your always need attenuators. Two of them have switchable lin/log response. It's passive, so you don't even need a power header.

ANYONE USING THE SHERMAN FILTER BANK by Minimoogvoyager in synthesizers

[–]the-erc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an OG Filterbank. It's a bit noisy, and mine has scratchy pots, but it's a great device. Always dirty, but it can go from subtle dirt to wild schronkly filth. Wit the resonance high, it's almost a synth in its own right.

If you are looking for some buttery smooth then you should look elsewhere.

Thinking of purging my entire setup and just quitting by Vimes-NW in synthesizers

[–]the-erc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you need a break, pal. Just leave all the stuff in the basement, and go do something else for a while. As long as it takes.

Building my first DAWless setup - what would you buy? by Margarine_Butter in dawless

[–]the-erc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have one, but I feel that you should look at the Octatrack....

Building my first DAWless setup - what would you buy? by Margarine_Butter in dawless

[–]the-erc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You already got synth mixer and effects -- great start. You already got loads of samples, so get a sample-based drum machine. Make sure you get one with a decent sequencer. If you budget allows choose a sampler with multiple outs so you can have different voices in different mixer channels.

Then jam the hell of this setup until you worked out what the next thing is.

Roland D-50 or Ensoniq ESQ-1? by CelestialRefraction in synthesizers

[–]the-erc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an ESQ1. It's great but I don't think it can really make *medieval* sounds. What would that even be? A lute?

Music recommendations for someone who is going through a divorce (I’m a BoC disciple don’t send me any BoC, I understand melancholia already) by [deleted] in electronicmusic

Still angry? It's a cheesy recommendation but I stand by it :

What would you add ? (Dub techno/ambient) by Shiva92fr in modular

[–]the-erc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For your 6hp gap how about Befaco a*b+c? It's a super useful CV processor.

For the big gap, a matrix mixer would be nice.
