Lets see some studio pics

I only have the one "proper" fully modular synth. Its a Pittsburgh Modular VRL and its still baffling the f**k outta me. I've got as far as getting some farty sounds from it, but nothing useful

I actually have enough patch cables, but I still want to get some more so I can have them in the exact sizes I want. tbh honest, I haven't bought any cables in a couple years though.

*Also I'd like them to match, I don't enjoy having many different design types.

That's where you and I differ. I'd ideally like for every single one of my synth patch cables to look unique. That way, it's much easier to trace the wiring from point A to point B, without getting confused about "which white cable out of these thirty white cables in this tangled rat's nest of white cables" is the other end of this white cable connected to my VCF cutoff?

There's a good reason factories color code wiring harnesses inside electronic equipment!

I don't need to trace wiring in the modular at least. To me it's a mechanical system, and because
of that I always know what is going on and what I'm doing as my brain works that way. I can also recreate a patch from memory later on.

I think there was a time when I wanted to do color coded patches cables but I gave up on that. I like having lots of colors, it makes it more fun to patch and (not that it matters) I think it looks neat. Like abstract art.

I end up with a lot of black cables though and I notice that when I'm in a bad mood I tend to grab those before the more colorful ones. If my synths are patched with all black cables, it's probably best to give me some room.

@Pekbro: I have excellent patch memory as well, because I'm constantly thinking in terms of signal flow anyway. I do everything I can to defeat that part of my brain. It's always spoiling all of the surprises and wonder!

Updated my DAW less standing synth area with a Wavestate. One good latched arp and you don't really need a sequencer!

That looks like a fun setup!

Here is a shot of my banana rack...

Here is a shot of my banana

I was hoping someone would take one of these banana posts out of context. I'm making it really easy.

usual? how insulting!

'unusual' suspect more like.

Indeed... {sigh} what was I thinking.
