Well... I just broke down and ordered one. Between this and beads it hurts, but I've been putting off a proper pitch sequencer for a while. I have a voltage block but this is obviously a completely different thing. The button combos on Quadrax don't take long to learn and are really intuitive, I'm ...

Ordered last night from Detroit Modular and just got a shipping notification. Still in stock if anyone's itching for one.

Yea the transformers in PSUs are made with glue which can, I guess, break down or not be good enough from the start. I had one in an old Roland S760 that made a super loud whining noise and I was told by a tech that it's the transformed vibrating and it can be dipped in something (glue or wax?) and...

When you say your units are humming, you mean the PSU unit itself is actually putting out sound, but the audio signals from your modules don't have the hum? It could be that its using a core or shell type transformer with a sketchy or inexpensive quality (either design or build) that is making it a...

Mazzatron just released this... 8HP, 1/8" on front (8 jacks) and 1/4" on back (8 jacks): https://www.mazzatron.com/product-page/patchbay-1-8-1-4-eurorack-module sadly passive .. I'd get an active version Why would this need to be active? You can lose some voltage when multing CV signals with a pass...

I just got a "arriving late" update and it was supposed to be today.

Soon soon soon.

Yep, same here. My plans of staring out the window all day waiting for the mail are ruined.

I'll be keeping my Metropolis and still getting this. Haha. Cause I totally need another old module in a box in the closet. Maybe selling is the right idea.

I wonder how long it takes till one shows up on - Ah, here we go: https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/mutable-instruments-beads-clouds-monsoon-eurorack-doepfer-/1672401172-74-3396 "Selling because I received two"... looking like a bellend for 30€.

Real world problems. Trying to decide what will come out of my 12U x 104hp to be able to put Beads in. So far I've narrowed it down to a TTA Z5000 (also have an Echoz and Zverb so this one is a bit redundant) and a 3xVCA or a Telharmonic. I dread decisions like this. I was dreading the same as, des...

On the topic of ITB... you can get the SSL Essentials Bundle for about USD/EUR 50 for a couple of days. That's about USD/EUR 400 discount.

That's a good deal. Is it on their site? I'm seeing normal price. Must. Spend. Money. Haha.

EDIT: Found the coupon code. Thanks!

So this whole thread is going to be about yeah I ordered it or damn I didn’t put my order in on time? Fun. It will be until people start getting them cause they're excited and want to talk about it and there's not a lot more to talk about until we get to play with it. That's a solid amount of fun f...

Yep. Torn between this or the m185. Any owners of metropolis think it’s too menu dicey or just right for immediacy?

It's got an amount of menus I'm personally cool with as they're all "how to module behaves" stuff versus composing and performing stuff. I'm sure others feel different, though.

Wasn't the alex a cheap lexicon multi fx? I am a bit confused and have a blurred memory...

It was. Sounds cool and is getting some hype recently, though.

NB: Apparently Cubase has a distinguished, pleasing sound engine that sets it apart. Whilst Live sounds a cold in comparison. Still the asymmetrical playful workflow probably makes up for it - if you’re not doing much mixing / mastering. Can’t imagine anyone being happy with that in Ableton. Playin...

I mentioned the Endangered Audio AD4069 MkII earlier in this thread, just pulled it (and their Spectravibe) out and tried a bunch of synths through it, and couldn't get anything a liked in an hour of messing around. So don't get that one. Haha. I really never dislike specific products, people will m...

I've got an Endangered Audio Research AD4096 MkII and a DOD Rubberneck (as well as a Monotron Delay and Space Case TE-1 which are digital/analog filter and tape respectively) and like the sound of the Rubberneck much better. The character I personally think makes the Deluxe Memory Man loved is how n...

I got a few really bad shocks as a kid playing through a Fender Super Reverb that wasn't grounded correctly and it's made me a little paranoid ever since. I have no idea if the same thing can happen outside of the guitar amp world but I'm with the general sentiment here of definitely trying to run s...

Edit: sorry.

awesome rack!!!!

I missed whatever happened pre-edit so I'm not sure what you're sorry about but I forgive you. Haha.

Appreciate everyone giving quick answers while I was asleep and showing some love for the rack.

Pretty tame modular setup compared to some here.

For super cheap I use multiple M-Audio Profire 2626s. You can get them for around $125 usually. You need a sort of old Mac to load the software and make sure the standalone mode is setup correctly but don't need it after that.

Is it software specific? I've deactivated things on my ilok account, and this page on soundtoys's website seems to imply the same thing: https://support.soundtoys.com/article/57-using-the-ilok-license-manager. You just need to use the license manager on the computer you have it activated on to make...
