Take this with a super-huge grain of salt, but what about a Shifty? It's 6 HP, could be interesting and a nice compliment.

Recently I shipped something from Missouri to Louisiana, and it went to New Hampshire first. And my spouse ordered something from California, it came to St. Louis, and then they sent it off to Ybor City, Florida for a couple of days before returning it to St. Louis. :doh: For me; LA to Newark, stay...

My small discovery today is that the US mail system is A) very disorganized, and B) slow, probably due to Covid.

Not so much a discovery as a rant I guess

I make a bunch of different stands for small synths (see URL in my sig).

I checked your website and I'm not sure if it would work. The size seems perfect but I don't see any way to connect nor brace the synth based on my stand.

Hello all, I picked up a minibrute. It's a cute little devil but I got a small little problem; the stand. I have full keyboard with large stands, but they're much too big for the minibrute. Currently it's sitting on a table, and that's no good long-term either. Suggestions? Also while I'm thinking o...

could anyone make any suggestions please? need a starting point..
maybe the darker sounding the better?
cheers!

I'm not sure this is 'dark' but I like Domenico Scarlatti, and would recommend him. This is one I just played not too long ago:

I had a quick question re: a little goal for one module. Is there a module out there that has lots and lots of das Blinkenlight? I ask as I wanted at least one module with way too many Blinkenlight if possible.

IMHO, Knurlies (with their captive washers) are the way to go. Not cheap, but then again modules aren't cheap.

What size? Do you have a part number?

West coast v East coast is most broadly defined as creating timbre from 'direct' manipulation of oscillator outputs, vs creating timbre by subtracting portions of a waveforn using a filter. This is what I mean :) I've read this and seen a few video's, but for example, if you were to take me to the ...

the OP question as I read it was "why serge in general" -- as more of a sound, philosophy etc.

This.

Also, I have no idea what Elby is Edit: nm, found their website, checking it out now.

1) East coast vs. West Coast (I'm used to subtractive synthesis, but trying to think outside the box) 2) As a beginner, one thing that I would like to see, which isn't mentioned here (I think it was sort of actually), is stuff on manufacturers. For example, take two bigger ones for now: Doepher and ...

Request: if I were to dip a toe into Serge, what would you guys recommend? One of the Serge panels e.g. the Mantra, or other?

Do the Eurorack-sized Serge modules still need the banana plugs and are they 3U? Is there any functional difference between the 3U and 4U modules or are the electronics the same?

Hello all. Generic question and I'm sorry for that, but what is Serge? I've researched it online, looks neat, but why would I use it instead of Eurorack? Can I use it with Eurorack/are they compatible?

If this has all been asked before (quite likely), is there a post thereof?

Trying to learn.

Somewhat related note...reminded me of of this.

The second biggest use of the internet is complaining.

Do you have any examples of the biggest use of the internet?

Hello and welcome

The question is, how did it happen? Is this module or cable likely to be responsible and could it potentially cause damage to another power board?

Was it the kitty? I know mine will chew just about anything

It depends how much you want to synthesize “from the ground, up”. Ex: complex osc - you could get the same functionality that a dpo or verbos complex osc provides by acquiring individual functions (2 osc, vcas, attenuverters, wavefolders etc...). It’s all about real estate and whether you want all ...

Thanks for thoughts all; I will do a touch more research but I think I know were I want to go with next 2 modules. I will try to have a little less analysis paralysis

I'll give an example from what I'm looking at right now, and that's oscillators. For example, one of the oscillators I'm thinking of getting is a Dixie 2+ ($230), and another longer-shot is a Verbos Foundation ($510). I like the Verbos, but is the price difference worth it? I know my question is par...

My one thought, which I an having now, is to be mindful of the cost; this hobby isn’t cheap.

Has anyone else ever painted themselves into a similar corner? If so, what did you do, and did it work for you? I play very good slow, melodic piano. My piano teacher, knowing this, gets me to play music that's faster than my wheelhouse (the latest one is a 144-160 tempo). You might not have a teac...

ADDAC901M 15U Monster Frame 1 Meter wide - 15U - 985HP - 20A.
Get the upgraded bus boards, ADDAC200A Ammeter and call it a day!!!

is 20A overkill?

Great insight here. It truly is paramount to have SOME kind of specificity to your approach. Even if its broad, you should have a goal in mind with your system, what does YOUR instrument need to do for YOU? Although I know in advance my question will be vague, how does one define a 'specificity' or...
