I was also wondering about the Noisering + uScale combo. Do you find yourself attenuating or even inverting the Noisering a lot before going into the uScale? _________________ soundcloud.com/hiWeSpies |

| The noisering is nothing like the other "random" modules out there. The data coming out of it is quite controllable. I love cranking up change then turning it to zero to get a loop going, you can then turn it up slightly to get very slight variation. I think the key thing is that the wogglebug and m24 tend to do wobbly/smooth "random" where as the noisering is stepped and to me is far more musical. |

I attenuate the Noisering prior to going into the uscale. Haven't tried inverting it. _________________ Soundcloud |

Yes, attenuation before the uScale can yield some pretty great melodies.
In fact I find the 'controlled randomness' of the NR to be unmissable during patching. Controlling the various CV ins with a Wogglebug is also great fun of course, because I find the WB more hands-on with its Range knobs, and its generous spacing of knobs, it's a combo I use very often.
Can't have enough random in your system I suppose (I have the Doepfer A-149-1&2, A-118 & A-148 too) _________________ http://soundcloud.com/bodo

| Yup, Noisering+att+uScale is killer, but even better is Noisering+Xmix+uScale. You can get even more control of the chaos |

Now think of NR Wogglebug AND Timetable. This is, where the really madness begins.

Curious as to the results...just picked up a Quantimator myself and have been wondering what might make a good companion.
Lots of talk about the uScale + Noise Ring, though. Anyone have any experience with the combo above? |

I thought the Noisering was out of production.  _________________ • • • • • • • • • • • • • |

I was just about to say that! Mixing an inverted copy of one of the Noisering outputs into itself is... excellent. Recommended to have at least an inverter nearby since the NR only outputs positive voltages.
NR + Xmix + Quantimator + O'Tool = yes. |

I'll post back and let you know. I have an OSC-02, which seems like a good match for the three outputs of the Quantimator. The uScale looks great, but sadly was not available from the shop I ordered from. |

just teasing – Wogglebug & Noisering are already an amazing combination _________________ www.soundcloud.com/nq_nhlsqaik

ahh!!! My lust for the wogglebug was too much to handle. I figured I could just use a standard clock divider until I get more money to buy another timetable or the updated version.
the wogglebug+noisering+uscale combo has been invading every thought of mine lately. Needed to purchase them so I can finally sleeeeeep _________________ keeping it real |

Got everything setup yesterday and spent some time with the new setup. Noisering -> uAtt -> Quantimator worked as advertised. The Chance and Change features on the Noisering give you a lot of control over finding the amount of random that works for you and the uAtt helps dial in the sweet spot.
I'm not sold on the Quantimator yet. I had to reference the manual a lot to translate what mode and scale I was in based on the LCD readout. Not a big deal, but the uScale keyboard would make it easier. I also like the shift feature of the uScale. I'm not sure how to achieve the same type of functionality with the Quantimator just yet.
On the other hand the trigger and hold functionality of the Quantimator is really cool with the noisering, especially when you are using something like the RCD with which I was able to extract even more from the Noisering's patterns. |
