Mhhm I use the hermod quiete a lot, not in that setup but it works fine tried it already.
Do you have the latest update on the hermod? What preferences did u setup? Do u use midi or usb?
Does anyone have experience with this one? Is it getting very hot? Looking for something to support my submodular case with some power and not sure if I should try the Endorphin.es P or go for a 4 ms ROW 40. Any suggestions?
that's what I did. Here is the answer for our grandchildren if they will use google
"It s eed stripe down :)and it is reversed power portected."
got the WMD Performance mixer and I sometimes also put a gate in the level input without a curve, it can sound sometimes a bit plucky but also works depending on what kind of situation and what you like to achieve.
I like the WMD PM especially cause of it two send return and the amount of channels.
Hi guys,
I unplugged the ribbon cable on the four bricks and I am not sure where -12v on the module is, can someone help me out with a picture? The manua
Didn’t help%%
Best a
I know replaced some modules with the ones from my a100 and it changed a bit but I kind of like that work flow at the moment, thanks again for the tips.
One quick question I have now the shakmat hipass and somehow I always get strange noises on it. Is it cause my whole rack takes to much power?
Having the sub modular case with the make noise board on it. Can someone help me out?
Hello Babel,
Feedback: Are you nuts? ;-) I mean regarding your comment to get rid of your Octatrack. Keep your Octatrack! That's a fantastic device and that can do so many things so easily (if you know how to use it, which I don't, but I know somebody who does) that if you want to get that kind of functionality in modular, I guess you need to reserve a pretty big part of your wall to make that full with modular then...
You could use the MIDI output on the Octatrack to a MIDI-in module in modular (unless your case got already a MIDI-in of course) and extract from that one the clock to keep everything in sync. The output of the modular back into the Octatrack and your Octatrack has such fantastic sample possibilities, I would use the Octatrack for sampling and not kind of in a forced way looking for a sample module in modular unless you really found the sample module that all does what the Octatrack can and more (and I doubt if it exists).
Other than that I think you are good on your way into modular and with keeping the advice of Ronin in mind, I think you should be all right.
Enjoy your system setup and don't you dare to sell that Octatrack ;-) Kind regards,
Garfield Modular.

Hi Garfield, don't worry I don't want to sell the Octatrack, for my one live act I will of course still keep and use it.
I have the hermod and I also have the shuttle control from endorphines, which I sometimes trigger from OT over a MIDI USB cable, but in general I can trigger everything from hermod, so shuttle control is soon getting out of my case.
I think for this case I could imagine that the ER-301 would be a nice fit but also like what Ronin suggested! So will have a deeper thought.
I have the BitBox. I also like that it has two alternative firmwares that allow it to be a wavetable synth or a multi-effects box.
The ER-301 and Assimil8or are good choices if price and rackspace aren't an issue.
How fast do the LFOs on the Hermod go and can they be reset or sync'ed?
A second case seems more logical as this rack is pretty much full. I'd find a big-o-rack and keep the Intellijel as maybe a core rack or your performance rack aka the rack where you sequence and control the rest of your system.

Bitbox sounds quiet interesting will definitely check some videos!
You can sync but don't need to the lfo has SINE TRIANGLE RAMP SQUARE S AND H so its pretty nice, it can go quiet fast in sync 128/1 and without sync from 0-200% about reset I am not 100% sure but I think you can do it.
Second case could be an option but I have a wooden case but for live I would prefer that it all kind of stays in one box, so I have to adjust a little bit.
Thanks for your feedback!
@Ronin1973
Thanks for your feedback. The Bitbox sounds quiet interesting will definitely have a look at it. There is also the ASSIMIL8OR and the ER-301: Sound Computer, which are quiet tempting and also have a sample option. Do you have any experience with it?
"Also, I only see one VCA. That's going to bite you. It's a combo ADSR and VCA, so that's really going to bite you."
I use for one VCA the level input of my WMD PM, this somehow works, but its not the cleanest, when I trigger it straight from the hermod so another ADSR would be good. I agree with you.
LFO I send at the moment from Hermod, which can be quiet nice. I still have two doepfer lfos in my other rack but the case is too thin so they don't fit :).
"If you pull the Metropolis, I'm not sure that you'd have enough space for all of that. Perhaps a smaller main mixer?"
I will have a thought but this sounds kind of logical, the other option would be a second case :)
This is my live rack which I use in my current live setup, I have an Octatrack for drums and samples (audio goes into the wmd) which is sending a clock to the hermod, the hermod sends a clock to the metropolis. The metropolis goes into the hermod so I can record into the hermod CV/gate and send it to my different OSCs, through an octaver and a vc rotator, so that I can change the melody lines between the Oscillators but keep the gate the same, this can bring some variety especially for breaks or something.
The overseer is the master filter. What I kind of miss is another adsr/vca cause at the moment I just have one inside the rack the cloud generator goes straight into the wmd pm and the gate signal as well which can be quiet hard some times and a bit noisy..
The disting I use as a reverb, I have additionally an external delay (polymoon ) and a compressor to glue everything together.
I also connect a midi keyboard towards the hermod.
Of course I would love to also get rid of the octatrack and have everything inside my case, but I guess therefore I need another case for drums and probably a sampler which can play longer tracks.
So my question, how do you guys see I can improve the case. I would love to have another adsrvca inside, but also thinking about exchanging maybe the furtherr to two ajh vcos and a acidrainm chainsaw for chords and maybe take the bassilus out as I mainly use the sys.05
Feedback is welcome :)
Change vails for QuadVCA, I had both but realized for myself that the vails is quiet difficult to handle, very sensible
Hi guys,
I hope this is the right threat for it. I have some issued with the incoming clock on the metropolis and wanted to ask if any one could help me out with the right edit.
So I have a digitize connected to the shuttle control, the shuttle control send a clock out to the metropolis but the metropolis just receives a 1/8 clock although I would love to have it run as a 1/16.
I can devide the incoming clock in the metropolis to 1/8 = 1/4, 1/2, 1/1 but I somehow can't get the 1/8 to run to the 1/16. Maybe its a preference in the shuttle control.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
