Wow! Love the look, love the description, love the possibilities.
I would definitely love to have this in my rack!

i've be been ripped off by https://modulargrid.net/e/users/view/93695 Imox12, aka Imox13; i bought a pedal from him, since then, almost 2 weeks, never heard again from him, even after several emails, urging to contact me; watch out, he is still offering 2 pedals on MG !

The Erica Synths Black Wavetable oscillator is absolutely fantastic when just starting out. it's incredibly powerful and versatile while being super simple and easy to use. you’ll be making amazing sounds day 1

Excellent! Thank you for sharing!

Just saw your reply. Thank you so much for your feedback! I'm glad you liked the music.
By the way, tomorrow is Bandcamp Friday, and be free to support our music, if you like of course :)

All the best,
Igor

There is no such thing as a "best wavetable oscillator". All have different quirks, different sound palettes, the UI facilitates certain modulations, etc...

With this being said, IME Piston Honda is hands down the best wavetable oscillator.

The Synthesis Technology E-352 and the IME Piston Honda are very interesting WT oscillators :)

You could add a 140 dual adsr between the sequencer and the 110 voice.

EDITED Yesterday, 01:11

Added Pam’s Workout and a 2nd Disting but still open to suggestions.

This ist my last Techno-Jam.

On board: TR-8S, Jomox ModBase 09 MK2, SY0.5 (sub-bass), Quadrantid Swarm, Edge + Steady State Gate.
The atmosphere comes from the Noise Plethora with Vhikk X, processed through Electus- and Imitor-Versio. For transitions, the Oxi Meta is in use, while the risers come from the sound pads on the Zoom L-6.

I look forward to your comments! :-)

Cheers Christoph

Plaits is a great place to start in modular.

Super versatile and playable sound source. MI closed up shop a few years ago, but all of their designs and firmware are open source so several companies offer a clone of it.

Intellijel's Shapeshifter is an incredibly powerful wavetable oscillator. It can do a LOT. I'd recommend looking there first.
Good luck and have fun!

Very much looking forward to this.
What wavetable format will it support?
Can it morph between or warp wavetables?
What is the select bus used for?
Any updates on a release date?

thanks

Hey !

yes this can morph wavetables , there is also an ensemble mode for the wavetables.

The format supported for user wavetables is the waveedit one, a typical file of 64 wavetables will be split into 8 banks.

The select bus allows to load and save presets.

We are now finalizing the production prototype, we whould release this for the end of this year :)

Greetings,
I'm just starting in the world of eurorack and looking for WT OSC recommendation. I realize it's a big question since there are so many choices out there.
Cheers.

Sounds great! What's that Rhodes-like sound you're playing on the KeyStep — is it the Oxi Coral?
-- modular01

I did try to get the Oxi to make that kind of sound but couldnt do it well enough so ended up with one of the sequences being handled by Oxi (fed from Turing Machine) and then I just used an electric paino plug in in Logic Pro

thanks for your feedback!

ill be on the lookout for a different filter from the ALM MCF now. same thing goes for the new CV to MIDI output module that fits within the hp.

In regards to the question about what needs to be clocked by midi besides Pams, i was thinking i could send midi notes from my digitakt 2 through the mutant brain to transpose sequences in the mother 32, while also maybe sending other midi note sequences to to a secondary voice like the VCO2 fron Erica. those are the only two instances i can think of since the envelopes qould be covered by Pams.

thanks for your feedback though, good to know im going in the right direction

Thanks to @Am_Zon for sending me a beautiful, creative, and very well-preserved ALM Akemie’s Taiko, complete with its original packaging. Really appreciated!

Here is an example that I have noticed recently and strikes me as egregious:

ZOOM LiveTrak L6max

https://modulargrid.net/e/other-unknown-zoom-livetrak-l6max

Even if someone manages to fit an object into a Eurorack case with brackets, it is a stretch to include this as a module entry.

I don't know if the moderators have the time or inclination to deal with situations like this, but in some instances, an entry in one of the modular synthesis format planners is not a module.

I wouldn't recommend more voices. 3 in a system like this is plenty, and havimg enough modulation to move them around is arguably much more important in this format for getting full and complex arrangements. If anything, this is a good reason to keep Maths anyway: if you set one or both sides to cycle and turn the rise and fall way down, they will go at audio rate and function as oscillators. You can have then function normally by using the Both input as your pitch input. You can also have some weird, pitch affected waveshaping by putting the pitch information into just the Rise or Fall input.

All the modulation you can fit in this case is good, and Maths is a versatile module that can cover a lot of ground. Pam's is a good inclusion, too, but the clocked nature of it means you'll want another more free-running, hands-on module to complement it. The logic and mixing elements will also help for making interesting hybrids of these elements. There are other options for complex modulation modules that potentially take up less space (Xaoc Zadar, Intellijel Quadrax, Mutable Peaks, Vostok Fuji), so this is also an option, but Maths can do a bunch of things these can't (like be an oscillator or envelope follower) and is probably more fun in this context.

There are two MIDI input modules here. mmMidi does not do MIDI out. Just MIDI in. You'll need something that explicitly does CV to MIDI conversion. Alternately, you can just use Pam's with its MIDI expander that has a MIDI out, but that will limit you to what you can get out of Pam's (not that this is all that limited). Don't forget that the Arbhar has an expander that allows for polyphonic MIDI input as well. You may not need as much direct MIDI to CV conversion as you think. What else needs to be clocked via MIDI aside from Pam's?

The ALM MCF is pretty much only available in the System Coupe amd doesn't appear to be around anymore. Unless you found one ypu can buy or you already have one, you may need another filter.

Otherwise it all looks fine to me. I'm a big fan of the Aurora, especially because it also has alternate firmware for a slightly more conventional reverb based on FDN, so it can be both its beautiful weird self or a more traditional sounding reverb with modulation if you find yourself needing that in the rack but not wanting to buy a whole other reverb. The Intellijel VCA is a classic and a good call. I'm not crazy about output modules in the rack, and there are 0hp options (I have a nice one from Herzlich labs), but if you think having one in there will help, I say go for it.

If you need more space, don't be afraid to put the Mother-32 back in its own case. It seems like a good balance to me for now (you don't need much to get a Moog, a granular synth, and another oscillator to form a full arrangement), but temptation is always there and you do have some wiggle room if something comes up.

hi,
this is my first attempt at designing a eurorack setup around a mother 32. my idea is to have a versitle setup that can do both ambient and techno music, which i can then use to make audio reactive artworks in touchdesigner, hense the uMidi output module. im also sequencing from a digitakt 2 for program changes and midi notes to the M32. i was thinking i could use the mutant brain to send other midi configuratjons from the digitakt 2 to other components in the rack like clocking pams.
i have a few questions:
- do i need more voices? at the moment i have the M32, the erica synths VCO2, and the arhbar for gradular sampling
- is there a better way to handle midi input from the digitakt 2? at the moment i have two midi inputs which seems a bit redundant.
- if i have pams, do i need maths? i know Pams can send out alot of clocked envelopes, LFOs, so it's handy for modulation, but if i only need pams, could i replace maths with another voice?
- my other option for a voice instead of the erica synths VCO2 is the dixie 2 from intelijel

any suggestions or feedback is grealty appreciated! :)

I just submitted a few more modules that I have been working on this year. Almost all are available (very limited for now) in my store at trillingsynths.com. Except for FLIP; coming soon!
Let me know what you think about these, anything you would use?

the sliders control an AR/AD curve. one for each channel. it goes from short attack/short decay via medium a/medium d to long a/no decay. serves as attenuator for cv. there's a graph in the manual: https://www.flame-instruments.de/pdf/Manual_Flame_X4_module_v100_eng.pdf

A YouTube video with a working system:

This is a dead thread but because the question was never properly answered:

Each power bus/ribbon cable on the uZeus (or any Eurorack power supply) contains wires carrying all of 0V/GND, 5V, 12V, and -12V. This is what TipTop meant when you asked which bus to use: Either one, because both buses contain all of these voltages. There isn't a "positive" and "negative" bus in that way. Sometimes people may refer to any one of the voltage supplies within the ribbon cable as a bus, which is reasonable if you're drawing up a schematic for a single module, but less so if you're connecting multiple modules in a case. Personally, I'd use "Power Bus" to refer to the entire ribbon cable's worth of power supplies.

It is important to always connect your modules to the ribbon cable correctly: There should be some indication which side of the module's power connector lines up with the red wire on the ribbon cable (which indicates the -12V side of the ribbon). If not, call the manufacturer and chastise them for not making that clear.

A common use case for the -12V supply is amplifiers: if you want to amplify a signal that goes below 0V, it's helpful to have a negative-voltage power supply to make that happen. This could mean VCA modules, or just op-amp components (which appear in almost any analog circuitry).

Hello everyone. Me with my band just released a new album composed with modular synths and hand made sound objects with our field recordings. Be free to check it. Hope you will like!

Has anyone noticed the feedback drifting off sync with the clock very quickly? I can even hear it with shorter feedback lengths, but using it as a quick and dirty looper is impossible the way it's behaving right now. I expect some drift over a while but this is right away. I've tried 4 different clock sources with the same result except of of them is a sequenced gate from T1 and in that case the feedback drifts behind, otherwise it always drifts ahead. Tell me this is normal and I'll sell it for a more stable solution, but I really hope there's something I'm missing because i like what this module can do.

I made a new song that I want to share ^_^

Somewhat Random by megoth

This started with a lucky accident with the Collide 4 and Rainmaker, with a bit of random goodness from the OCHD extension. I cranked it up with Ghost and added a bunch of reverb to it, and it resulted in a semi-random white-noise-clickity sound.

I paired this with a Equator2, a soft-synth, that I fed a generative sequence from Oxi One. On top of this came another semi-random sequence, fueling the Oxi Coral.

To back all of this randomness up I added a couple of bass presets from Equator2 and Serum 2.

It was a fun little thing to make, hope you enjoy ^_^

FYI : new batch in October 2025 ;)

Published Date for modules

In addition to the created field modules now also have a published field. Manufacturers could always upload a module as private and change later to public. Now, when they change the module to public the published field is written and the module will show up on first position in the module browser when sorted by new. This only works once, it's not possible to bump modules.
The change will make published modules more visible. Before the change depending on the upload date they were burried in the module list.

Small CSS changes

fixed narrow line heights in headlines in module description

Thanks for that. I'll also mention that I have both an external mixer and sequencer.

Very much looking forward to this.
What wavetable format will it support?
Can it morph between or warp wavetables?
What is the select bus used for?

Well I have three oscillators plus noise and the granular/sampler to create sounds. Im primarily using the CVilization as a matrix mixer. While I'm open to ideas in things to add in my open space, I'm mostly interested in arrangement/ordering advice.

There's a lot of modules to chew up audio, but not many to feed them.

Think about those stereo modules in the signal chain you have in mind, and mixing.
Will you be using them in stereo, or discarding half, and when?

Is Pam's the usual clock for the other clocked modules?
Will you need a distributed reset to start and stop them in sync?
More active mults can share those expensive-to-generate signals.

Sometimes, it simplifies to think in essential pairs of modules that compliment each other,
and then think of those pairs as a single unit as you're building up.

Today I tried something new with my Intellijel Multigrain and Sealegs. I sampled my singing voice into the Multigrain, used the quantizer for harmony, and explored the A/B slider to morph between two different setups.
Then I patched it into Sealegs for delay, reverb, and even used the noise knob as a rhythmic tool. A simple patch, but it turned into something that felt like playing an instrument.
