Helvetica Scenario

helveticascenario_store.png

Wow this is great! I have the Sauce of Unce which I quite like but this seems like double the fun.

I’m looking for a builder/tech in the Detroit area who can replace an ancient Doepfer PSU1 (from the 90’s!) with a PSU2 (which I have) in an old P3 rackmount case. It should be relatively simple job. I have a tech who COULD do it but he’s really busy and can’t give me a time estimate and I’d rather ...

I was on the Zoom call for about an hour yesterday - it was a lot of fun! I believe 2.0 has moved into a semi-public beta - I think you can email Jim and he'll send you the firmware. One of the additions I'm excited about are new mod input destinations (especially excited about the different ways th...

I'm curious about people's experience with Ladik's panning mixers - the a-174, a-175, etc. How quiet are they. At one point I had a panning module from Ladik that was quit noisy (a-410) so I wanted to see how people were liking the a-170 series.

Well, if y’all like the idea, it wouldn’t hurt if you bopped over to the Five12 forum and registered your enthusiasm. No way to know what Jim can or will implement, but we can try. https://forum.five12.net/forum/eurorack-hardware/vector-sequencer-feature-requests/33057-expander-trigger-outputs-stag...

I was using the CV input on the Scope app and it seems to max out around 6.5v. I know the source I'm using is 0-10v - any ideas on why this is?

The O_C hardware only accepts up to around 6.5v positive and something like -3.5v negative. The output is similar +6v and -3v.

Since you’ve bought O_C it’s worth looking at the alternative Hemispheres firmware. I typically use one hemisphere as a quantizer and then use the other hemisphere for whatever else might be useful/interesting in a patch. Since all the Hemisphere Applets are pretty simple I found it easier to manage...

I've been clocking Vector with Pam's via the Run and 24ppqn outputs of the Pam's PEXP-2 expander. What I've found is that about 1/3 of the time I get a slight lag in the sequencer which I believe is caused by Pam's sending the Run and Clock signal at the exact same time when you start Pam's which me...

Sometimes I use ten to twenty S&H in a patch, often in the 'quantussy cell' configuration. Yes, I have that many! :sb: https://pugix.com/synth/eurorack-quantussy-cells/ Twenty sample and holds in a patch! Amazing. I probably use S&H or T&H in every patch but I've never come close to that number. Ed...

What’s the purpose of Sequence 5 if it only fires off a trig only at the beginning of the 5 step sequence?? Is there not a way to use it as a traditional sequencer? It's a 5-step voltage sequencer, which is a somewhat traditional voltage sequencer (Buchla used 5-step sequencers I believe). I usuall...

I love switches. I have an a-150, a-151, and a-152 in my rack. Switches are great because you can use them to switch between anything - not just gates/triggers like Branches (which I also own and love). It wasn't until I started messing around with switches that I started to understand the joy of mo...

ResetClock is a clever solution that looks like it'd work for analogue sequencers too. The effect of the catch-up pulses on reset is actually pretty cool in its own right on the DFAM. Glad you liked ResetClock, it's really nice how simple the Hemisphere api is for putting these kind of simple apple...

I wouldn't say it's totally unknown, but the Nonlinearcircuits Sauce of Unce is a wonderful Buchla source of uncertainty clone that I don't see in many racks. The same can be said for quite a few NLC modules - another favorite is the 329 Phase/Flange. It's a truly bonkers phaser. Noise Reap has some...

The only LPGs I've had that didn't have some amount were passive - like the Meng Qi DPLPG or the Takaab one that you have. But, like others have said, it varies so much unit to unit that I've always made a point to try before I buy if possible. I used to have a LxD and I before I bought it I tried s...

Maybe change the thread title to “shipping is a total crapshoot right now; we’re all just crossing our fingers and hoping for the best.” I’ve received a number of items that USPS said never even shipped. FedEx in Detroit had a 2+ week backlog with items just sitting in trucks waiting to be unpacked....

Huh, that's a pretty strange behavior! I wonder what caused it?

Is anyone using the 6hp Intellijel Outs module that could speak to its sound quality? I know the previous generation version (uJack) wasn't particularly well thought of, so I'm curious if any improvements have been made. I'm currently using a WMD Pro Output, which is fantastic, but I really need som...

LFO: Triangle. I like the symmetry and the slightly sharper rise and fall than a sine lfo. I also use square wave lfos a lot for different purposes like creating sequences or rhythmic effects

VCO: Harder to say, it depends on the sound I’m going for but a pure sine wave is a thing of beauty.

IIRC, doesn't the maths trigger input send out a voltage, which screws up some modules that send into Maths? I know people had strange troubles in the past with the meng qi DLPG seizing up when connecting to Maths. The DPLPG seizes up if you youse the unattenuated output of maths, the attenuated ou...

Out of curiosity, are there any SSG inspired modules, other than the actual SSG? Sport Modulator Thanks. I took another look at the Sport Modulator's manual, and I wasn't able to make any sense of it. I was never able to make sense of the SSG either, so that seems very authentic ... ;) I love the s...

I was inspired by this thread to experiment with Rings going into the Toppobrillo Triple Wavefolder. I got some great doom metal tones using the square output of the TWF. The way the sound kind of sputters out at the end of a long sustained chord even sounds a bit like unplugging a guitar from an amp.

Really cool - I've been hoping someone would do something like this as I don't use any of the full apps within Hemisphere (Capt. Midi, Darkest Timeline etc.). Stairs looks particularly useful to me.

So just made some test and yes it tracks well (you have to set the channels to half period gates) until around 800 - 1kHz.

Cool - I’d love to hear some audio if you get a chance!

I would get rid of the a160 and get an a160-2! (or keep the 160 as well) I never found the mathmatical very useful and got rid of it almost as soon as i bought it and realised it wasn't puttin gout the clock i was expecting. But yes, i think that 165 should do what you're after. If you have a doepf...

I've got a couple of questions for Doepfer a-165 users. First, am I correct in thinking that you can use an a-165 to get "musical" divisions from a CMOS divider like Doepfer a-160 rather than mathematical? From what I'm seeing in the manual it seems like it should work. Secondly, I don't usually put...
