indeed i did!
and indeed it can!It can really go mad and crazy.
quite easily too
the manual has been helpful, as have the tnrs videos
also, i think its my first "modular patch" thats for a jacket

Yes.. the manual..vurt wrote: Sun Feb 16, 2025 7:25 pm the manual has been helpful, as have the tnrs videos

After unboxing it was the very first thing I did.. RTFM..
and still do..
ermmm in which mode is this knob tilt filter or etc<shrug>
For the 10 days I've had it.. I've just been playing basically the same patch exploring the unbelievable ways it can change the whole feeling..
OFC.. I'm doing my usual hunting the elusive holy grail of a groove/rhythm...
and this device can pump and pull this, sometimes.. amazing space and time..
addding the pitch can be wild.. I'm gonna ask if a future F/W upgrade can have a long push on the "pitch_point" to on/ off it and remember where, instead of having to scroll thru all the positions.. oh.. I've already requested a latch for the freeze and he's giving that some thought as to how to implement.

definitely a lot to discover, be a while before i might buy another reverb
i love the choral sound, had some lovely tones with that

Ah yes.. the choral knob AKA the playback of the randomness of the granular/cut tape intensity..
yeah.. in that mode as well

ive got it here, post echophon and bruxa, but pre morphagene and mimeophon, because you cant have too many delays!
all being controlled by multimod in lfo mode

Magnetic, battery powered LED light strip, best investment in a while.
Take a single oscillator, producing a drone. Send it to the wave shaper, altering the tone.
This can be a triangle, Sawtooth or a square. Modulate the pulse width, nobody will care

I have a strange desire to return to some of the kit that I was using around 2011. I just traded a bunch of TipTop z-rails and a PSU, for a Rene v1. I feel like I got more use from the v1 than I did from the v2.
I also finally received the set of replacement button caps for my Analog RYTM mk2, which had gotten sticky.
https://www.etsy.com/listing/1798502348 ... r-elektron
They aren't perfect, some orange peel texture but the LEDs shine though very nicely and most importantly, no soft-touch coating. I'll definitely be getting a set of these for my OTmk2 as well. I'm really surprised that Elektron are still making their buttons with the rubberized coating, as they will all start breaking down eventually. I wish they would go back to the buttons they used on the original silver boxes and the mk1 black boxes.

Minimod is a beast!
I find myself wishing I had more obvious destinations for 8 different signals, but then, part of the fun of the module is finding creative uses for it. Some uses are obvious, some really not -- kind of like Silhouette, which it's sitting next to. Those two work well together, sort of psuedo-merging the signals after they've been split up and altered.
It's definitely fun for audio. Slow the time down and it lowers the sample rate beautifully. Get chorus-like effects with slow phase modulation and/or spread. It's almost granular in how it works, except that each "grain" is a separate output...

What’s missing from the manual, is how it processes audio. To me this is the greatest thing and goes back to what Shabs always says about getting modules that can do more. So not just an LFO, not just a crazy Mult, but also an audio effect x8.
from using it as an oscillator to a pitch shifting delay!
Finally took the time to sit and absorb all the reviews/demos, and this thing IS just crazy-ass cool! I love the versatility yet simplicity of it. Utterly brilliant in the ease with which one can steer into the myriad sonic spheres from subtle nuanced shifts, to the profoundly serendipitous.

This year may be the year that I upgrade my audio interface for my Linux setup. My plan is to get the following:
Focusrite Scarlett 18i16
Behringer ADA8200 8-channel Microphone Preamp
My recording needs have not changed, but I'm lazy, and I want to be able to hook all of my external gear directly into the extra channels so I don't have to continuously hook things up, and then change to something else, and then change again, and again, etc. I want to hook everything up, and have it all assigned to its own audio channels. Convenience!

All this time I've been 100% fine with minimal VCAs, and taking care of most mixing duties in the DAW. But now, with Multimod? Not to mention Just Friends, QPAS, Drezno, Planar, Zorlon Cannon, Stages etc. that all can generate related modulation and/or audio signals...
After considering several alternatives I'm looking at:
- Nearness. 2HP and cheap!
- Doepfer A-130-8. 8 channels, individual outputs plus mix outputs for ch 1-4, ch 5-8 and 1-8. Only 6 HP, and cheap. The CV voltage range can be adjusted so I could set it to expect 0-10V. No attenuators on board, but with a little extra patch cable spaghetti and Sweet Sixteen that's handled.
I have imitated both of these using all 8 of the inputs on OptX, a Bitwig Grid patch, and in the second case also 8 channels of Sweet Sixteen (converting CV to MIDI CC). That doesn't leave room for much else!
I could replace my Tallin and Ana 2 with these two modules and still have a few HP left over for future stuff. (I'm a little afraid of what other brilliant things might coming with MAKNOS / NUSS...)

That’s interesting, I’ve also been swapping out some of my VCAs with attenuators for smaller units with just jacks. It used to be that the Doepfer A-132-1 or A-134-2 were the most economical but Doepfer has an octal VCA in 6hp for $150?! That’s incredible!foosnark wrote: Thu Feb 20, 2025 5:21 pm All this time I've been 100% fine with minimal VCAs, and taking care of most mixing duties in the DAW. But now, with Multimod?

Not long ago I swapped out my 2 Tangle Quartet vcas for a pair of Arba vcas from Plum Audio (one in 1u format the other in 3u). The jacks are nicely spaced out and the soft clipping sounds pretty nice. I’ve also been using controllers and automation from Bitwig to control things like that a lot more, so I don’t need as many VCAs with attenuators these days.
