Okay so... I"m staring at the stilton I just got in the mail. It's fucking beautiful btw just like all the harvestman modules (eventually I really just want a 6U doepfer case full of only harvestman modules....)

So, I'm not to experienced with send and returns per-say... so bear with me.
K so... If I wanted to actually do a feedback loop and plug a guitar in, I would need to use 3 of the 4 1/4" jacks on the bottom right?

One using the tip going from the pedal or chain's out into the stilton

One using the ring going from the stilton to the pedal or chain IN

One using a TS cable for my guitar or whatever....

This correct? Sorry I'm a jackass and just trieng to wrap my head around some funky routings for this puppy. THANKS IN ADVANCE DUDES AND DUDETS! Mr. Green

No, just two, I think - but to do a proper feedback loop you'll need to set it to feedback mode... I think?

it's IS kinda complicated, I agree :-?

well you'd use 2 of them for pedals. One for in, One for out. right? then if you wanted to run a guitar in... that'd be a third to use just as a preamp right?

no.
Just one. Actually, I believe there's a nice big diagram on your Stilton Adaptor that shows this?!?
seriously, i just don't get it

you take one of the multed outputs on the far right (that's why there's two) and feed it back to the input of #1 (far left), then you take the other multed output and send that to whatever else (that's your "main" output).

Mr. Green


Here's how to do it:

First, set gain to about 2:00 on all channels, then set mix to maximum (wet signal).

Make sure there are four jumpers on the upper header on the back of the module, too.

Plug your guitar into channel 1 using a plain old instrument cable.

Plug three pedals (for example) into the remaining channels, using TRS insert cables for each pedal. (Hosa STP-201 recommended for desktop use.) Connect the ring terminal to the pedal's input, the tip to the pedal's output. Run the multed output from channel 4 back into the channel 2 input. Listen to any of outputs 2-4 (they are all different) , and tune the pedal controls until the feedback is something you like. Output 1 will be your guitar signal. If you would like to mix some of the feedback into this signal, turn channel 1's "MIX" control down a bit. More complicated routings, such as pushing a stilton-amplified guitar signal through an existing feedback loop like our chans 2-4 example above, can be accomplished by using an "EVIN 209" matrix mixer that will be released in the next few weeks.

For good results making pedal feedback loops, I recommend using a really hot and nasty distortion or fuzz, a digital delay, and a pitch shifter. Envelope filters also work really well. For taming a feedback signal for better behavior, try patching a Polivoks VCF inbetween channels. It works surprisingly well.

I've been hoping someone would make a matrix mixer for the Euro format; it's far too rare of a module in any format, let alone non-existent in Euro. It's fantastic that you're making this and I imagine the noise/feedback crowd will absolutely adore it, as well as many others. It's wonderful that you've been so productive in putting out such unique modules rather than retreading common ground. Keep up the phenomenal work!

hooray! I actually need to get some shorter ones for pedals that normally stay on the table (moogs).

An "insert" cable is a Y-shape, but don't confuse it with what most folks refer to as a "Y-cable" which is really a splitter/mult.

An insert is a TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) connector on one end and two TS connector on the other. The Sleeve connection on all are the common ground and the tip on one of the TS connectors corresponds to the tip connection on the TRS and the tip on the other TS connector corresponds to the ring on the TRS connector.

Insert cables get their names because many mixer manufactures use the TRS jack as a way to "insert" a compressor or equalizer post-preamp but pre-fader.

Those Hosa adapters that split into 2 female 1/4 inch have the labels of "TIP and "RING" so there is no confusion.

Okay... I need to upload some clips this week. I had a fucking blast with my stilton, a fuzz factory, EHX memory man, EHX Bass Synth, Sherman FIlterbank2 with an AFG being the tone source.

JESUS THIS JUST TOTALLY CHANGED HOW I WRITE MODULAR MUSIC! It's so nice with all the attenuation boosts and cuttings......... so much fun to use the modular with pedals now. Time to use some different pedals for new recipes and that new matrix mixer to plug into this bitch! STAT!

PLEASE upload some samples! I have my Stilton in the rack, staring at me....mocking me.....and I have not a single pedal yet. It's killing me!!

Not a feedback loop, although there is some feedback in there from teh Tresonator. Guitar plugged into the geiger counter and into stilton channel 1, Fulltone GT-500 in channel 2, TResonator in channel 3, Moogerfooger 104z in channel 4. Channel 1 goes out to an ASys RS-35 External Processor, and my playing, creates a trigger and levels CVs which are opening and closing one of the Cwejman ADSRs. This is used as a CV for the MMF-1 which the stilton's effects loop feeds. The ADSR is also used in the filter. That's why when I let that gate stay open a while you can hear the delay and the rest of the time it's hidden behind the envelope. The Stilton rocks. I've barely started even using the feedback capabilities, even the built in effects chain is sweet.e drums are Jomox 888, sequencing the accompanying ringmod bell type sounds. All in one take, if you can't tell by my bad timing.

Pardon my crappy playing, it's hard to say your a guitarist when you live in LA... I think everyone here does.

I just received my Stilton Adapter and am having a problem with it (might be a user problem, not sure). I have my guitar plugged into it and for some reason the left channel is always more active than the right channel on all the inputs. When I pick a string, it never leaves the left and right channels evenly, it always drops from the right channel first and then a couple seconds later it drops from the left channel. I tried this with a couple other devices and saw the same effect (different devices, different cables). Is there something I'm doing wrong? Mix is at full wet and gain is typically between 12 and 2.

What exactly do you mean by right and left channel? I didn't think there was anything stereo about the Stilton Adapter.
