@electropict off the top of my head, if your vco has an exponential FM input, you can spread your octave on more keys. Since i’m on my ipad, let me pull up miRack. Yep, i can adjust the attenuator on the fm input to spread 1 octave range over 2 x 12 keys, for 24 notes per octave, for example.

"Shift Register Random Calvados Voltage"

How about a track made on my 54hp lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth, with some rhythm also generated by the synth? Using the #Disting Mk4 algorithm F6, the shift register random quantized voltage function and frequency divider for the percussions. #korg #volca #mix compressor used to create part of the rests and syncopation. Food related? Calvados.

My hand-built #eurorack #modular #synth case is complete (finally). Cedar and pine finished with beeswax. Joints are rabbeted and nailed. 104hp.

I'm pretty unhappy with the details in this one (as well as the overall effect of the wood choices, honestly). Keen eyes will spot many gaps, dents, dings, tears, and other cosmetic problems. I learned a lot though, not the least of which being how good a result I can get even without the aid of machinery.

The next project in this vein will be a tall folding case (17U x 104hp) built cheaply and hastily as a proof of concept like this one was. Then I'll start trying to make some with fancier joinery.

I am slowly but surely setting myself up to do some regular videos on synthesis and other audio / video / photo related subjects.

I got some starting points for synths with basic controls, semimodulars and I'm now looking at modular. Which setup would you like me to talk about? (There is more, but poll is only up to 4 choices!?)

The larger pack (pictured) has 12V (but 5525 instead of 5521, so I need a 5525 to 5521 cable to connect my lunchbox #modular #synth), a USB port and it also has a 9v (+tip) output, 4717. With that, I can run the #korg #volca #mix. Using the right combination of tip adapters, polarity switchers and daisy chain cable, I can run both the #korg #volca #mix mixer (+tip) and guitar pedals (-tip)

"Happy Wasabi Wavetable"

Another #electronic #music track done live on the battery powered 54hp lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth. Disting Mk4 on wavetable algo, Beehive and uBursts. Sequencing & mod through Pachinko. #2HP Kick, #Bastl Skis w/radio for basic percussions. Added an RD-6 to augment the drums. Final mix through the #Korg #Volca Mix (also powered by the battery pack) sitting in the lunchbox case lid. Listen to it on #soundcloud on my lunchbox playlist:

Mecha Comet modular Linux handheld gets pre-launch upgrade, coming to Kickstarter in Q3, 2025

The Mecha Comet is a phone-sized modular computer with a small touchscreen display positioned above a modular input area where you can place a QWERTY keyboard, game pad, or other devices.

After making its debut at CES in January, the Mecha Comet has undergone some changes – in a recent live stream the company announced it would upgrade the processor, display, and ports. That’s the good […]

In the back, with cover and reverb tank removed. Bottom 1U has the power supply, a USB port, a strymon level converter and a midi to cv converter (the 3u modules are mounted in abyss devices adapters and adapter mounted to front rails back through long standoffs)

Cables are held in place through plastic clamps, fixed to the vector rails and power bus held by screws.
