I have just bought a 2gb Microsoft card to use with 2hp play module.

Is there a guide anywhere on how to use your own samples with the 2hp play module?

I know they need to be converted into 16bit mono using something like audacity

Any Thing Else to take into consideration?

Thanks in advance.

I have a Mattis case for sale

So.e time ago i ordered a module from central and it took nearly2 months to arrive in denmark

the modules will be available in Sonic-sales in about 2-3 weeks

im definatly getting one,thanks Lugia for pointing my awareness to these modules

just got a email from the EMW guys,they will send a bunch of sub-osc generator modules in their next shipment to Sonic-sales in germany

Aha! I was working on adding new stuff and making corrections on EMW's listings, and the very thing needed here just happens to be one of their modules: https://www.modulargrid.net/e/emw-sub-osc-generator

The very thing, with 1 and 2 octave suboscillator, "tone" control (waveshaping, basically), fits in 6 hp and only costs $69 + shipping from Brazil. I would suggest going direct with EMW, also...their distribution can be spotty in some locations.

And oh, yeah...it's got its own 4-point passive mult to boot!
-- Lugia

that looks awesome,the thing is the tax to denmark is probaly gonna be way more than the price of the module itself,cant find any EU retailers?

Interested in hearing whats your favorite modules for maling textures Are?

And not meaning revers and delay modules

BUT ONLY Eurorack Modules.

Right now im just using a 2hp play module loaded with my own samples

But what is out there thats interesting and dont cost an arm and a leg.

Your original oscillator, you would mult that if you want a copy to send to a mixer to be able to mix the original sound in with the generated subs.
-- nickgreenberg
Right now my main osc is E352 that has 2 outputs.and right now my only mult is the one in links .so maybe i Will have to test with stackcables.

Also read that alm chalkboard can be used as a bufferen mult.so might have to test that out too

glad this helped -- hope you got the sound you were looking for!

Came to Thing abort it i forgot to do the mult Thing.i use sism to do the offset.should i do the mult aften sism?

Case From Lake, baybee! Check this one out: https://reverb.com/item/37279796-12u-eurorack-case-powered-84-or-104-hp-patched-resealable-modular-synthesizer-synth The depicted cab there is the 104 hp width. Very carry-on-able, plus you get even MORE space than you'd specced (416 hp total...provided you don't get any modifications; CFL can make a lot of changes, including adding a tile row or two. And the power is NO JOKE...a total of 5600 mA on the +12, 1000 mA on the -12 (with the ability to take that to 2000 mA if needed) and 8000 mA on the +5!

i got the 84hp one,love it

well i cant figure out how to set it up (patch it to work)with the doepfer clock divider?
-- Broken-Form

I've got this derived-square patch working on my system right now. Here's how I'm doing it:
1. square wave from any OSC patched to input of A160-2
2. take an output from A160-2: that's the result. Note this is POSITIVE voltage only.
3. apply a bit of offset (negative voltage) using a utility. I have ShadesV2 doing this. SISM would work fine, lots of others would work fine.

I'm getting a square wave at 1/2 rate. Varying settings on A160-2 gives me different pulse width on the output. Both audio and oscilloscope are showing me this works on my end. Note the result is just a lower version of the original square wave.

Of course, assuming you want to mix the original and the derived square, you'll need a copy (mult) of the original.
-- nickgreenberg

yes thanks for this,i got it working:)

I like my E352 for Drone stuff

Tanks godnat try this already godt a sism in My system.can i Use stackcables instead of a mult for the copy?

well i cant figure out how to set it up (patch it to work)with the doepfer clock divider?

thanks will put the fold processor on my list.

already have the doepfer clock divider but cant figure out how i get it to work to get what i want?

wondering if i can use the alm chalkboard for this.

the goal is to have a drone from my E352 as "Clean" Drone and then hae the drone sent through chalkboard as a Sub-Drone and then send the 2 to different channels on my Bloodcells audio D.O.MIXX

for some reason the rack picture isent the rack,i have the pams new workout

btw i dont have the modules in the bottom row(thats modules i need to check out

Can anyone point me in the right direction about setting up clock(bpm to 90bpm in my rack

im making mostly Dark Ambientish Music

here is my rack in work

i have a squarp hermod for sale im not using its a powerfull eurorack sequencer

by original I meant built by mutable - ie not a clone...
-- JimHowell1970

i tried sending mutable support a email.

and wow that was fast costumer service,already 2 minutes after i got a email saying that i could send the module back to her,and she would take a look:)

Hello, if you are post processing this plugin is great to add sub to your music if its lacking - its on sale for £39.99 and you can get £20 off with a voucher from them.

-- greenfly

my goal is to get a fat sub in the modular itself without a lot of post processing,but thanks for the advice

Is this an original? if so send an email to mutable support - Emilie will sort you out pretty quickly
-- JimHowell1970

its the newest version,bought it some months ago,but havent had time to test it untill this week,have tried with different cables(all connected as one should)

this is my rack im building atm

i dont have the tetrapad-tete s yet,and the veils seems to be broke.

anyone have any starter tips to patch up dark drones/ambient drones

i can hear some when i run audio trough veils,but no lights and nothing happens when i move the sliders or turn the knobs:(((((

i managed to get it working now:)

i will test it out on monday

also think i will get the Doepfer A-115 think that will be very usefull in my setup

can someone explain to me have a patch this up to work???from my Synth tech E352 through the Doepfer clock divider?

you leave the studio????

-- JimHowell1970

Hi Broken-Form,

How about using an Audio Interface module to "solve" the problem or at least to make your audio output life easier?

I am using a PreSonus StudioLive Series III mixer and I have no issues, great sound.

Let's hope this is not the case but check it: In case you provided a far too "hot" signal to your mixer, worst case your input channels might have been burned up into smoke, try another input channel (not used for Eurorack before yet) and make sure you start with a very low output signal (start with zero) and then increase it slowly to something reasonable. Please do keep in mind that Eurorack signal -10 V to +10 V is too hot for audio/external mixers (max about -2 V to +2 V). One would expect that input channels have some kind of overload protection but don't count too much on it either.

Please let us know once you get something out of your external mixer.

Hence my advice to go for an audio interface module, less worries about DC components in your signal too! :-) Kind regards, Garfield.
-- GarfieldModular

what audio interface module can you recommend?

It should only light up when there is a signal going into it. If it doesn't light up then, then there is a problem.
-- snowtires

will test tommorow

i bought a mutable instruments veils some time ago,havent had time to try to use it untill yesterday.

but it doesent light up(no light in it)is it broken?

Thanks guys will try the methods you posted,when im back in the studio

-- Broken-Form

you leave the studio????

-- JimHowell1970

my studio is in my appartment,but my fiancee gets mad if she dont see me sometimes:))))

Thanks guys will try the methods you posted,when im back in the studio

btw this is my rack

i got a presonus studiolive 1602 mixer i would like to connect my eurorack to it.
https://www.presonus.com/products/StudioLive-16.0.2

in my eurorack i have a bloodcells audio D.O.MIXX mixer module
https://bloodcellsaudio.com/products/domixx

but i cant get any sound no matter what i try??

my end goal was to record the eurorack into Reaper

any help is appreciated

i got a mantis case for sale if you are interested and live in the EU?

Im producing Dark Ambient ,try to search for dark ambient or ambient that should give you some ideas

any more info on the game?

just bought a twisted electrons octopus cv sequencer(not something i had planned)and dont know if it will be any good for Dark Ambient????
-- Broken-Form

why do you think it may not be any good for dark ambient? sequencers don't care what type of music they are making - they just do what they are told!

-- JimHowell1970

good point

just bought a twisted electrons octopus cv sequencer(not something i had planned)and dont know if it will be any good for Dark Ambient????

I really like the sound of the new Ashlight from Native Instruments.
i Love Ambient,Especially Dark Ambient.

https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/cinematic/ashlight/

if you should build a eurorack version of the Ashlight,what would it be??

thanks guys have both of these modules now added to my list

im in the need of a good reverb module for that Dark Ambient vibe,any suggestions?

Looks like the D.O. MIXX has direct outs on each of the five channels, so you could set volume levels there and then send each channel to the Jumble Henge for EQ and panning. The Jumble Henge would allow 11 more inputs and be your main outs at that point. You might be able to do some interesting feedback patching too.
-- farkas

might be worth getting a jumble henge to try it out,so my D.O.MIXX would be like a sub-mixer of some sorts?

The Worng Soundstage and ALM Jumble Henge mixers seem to solve this problem with EQ and panning pre-set for each input. Every demo I have heard of each sound great for standard usage, and they can be used more creatively too.
-- farkas

would be cool to be able to use one of the above with my D.O.MIXX but dont know if thats possible?(Properly Not)

for the time being i only use my modular in the studio have a bloodcells Audio D.O.Mixx going into my studiolive 16.02 then i record seperat tracks into Reaper,where i have eq plugs on every track.

but came to think about what if i want to take the modular out of the studio sometimes,how do you avoid frequency clashing in the modular world?

EQ Modules could quickly take up alot of space i would think??

This is my idea for my updated Dark Ambient Rack

Just recieved a 2hp Pluck,thinking about getting the 2hp TM too

if you are located in EU,i got a TipTop Audio Mantis case for sale im not gonna use after i got a bigger travel case.

a effects module that get reccommended alot here is the FX Aid XL(gonna get that one myself later this year)

Also if you wanna get a 2nd mantis case,and you are located in EU.i have one i dont use anymore,pm me if interested

so im in the right direction?

This is my build sofar for a Ambient system

but need some help organising the rack

i have most modules,the ones i dont have yet is

Furthrrr Generator
2hp play(for field recordings mainly)
Fold 6
Quant Gemi
Golden Master
Lapsus Os
Ears
Terapad-Tete

Where would you place every module?
