still searching for more self-generating melodic patterns….
Vermona Melodicer
this one is a great probabilistic pattern sequencer, it is so easy to enrich patterns with more notes, and come back to more sparse notes or completely blend into different base chords
After Later Audio Fuse
yet another Mutable Instruments clone of Warps, but with an updated Parasites firmware with many more new modes
Spent the whole weekend reorganizing my eurorack modules, but I still have powerup issues for some modules, so I decided to buy one more WMD softstart adapter. Hopefully this will help, otherwise I need another expensive power supply.
WMD Softstart
delays the power on current flow for a “low energy module” so that the bigger ones can get the startup juice first 😉
And of course I could not resist to get some extras….
DPW Design SW-1
the module version of my self mode simple A/B switch boxes, much more convenient, I use them a lot
Erica Synths Pico Input
always good to fill some tiny gaps with useful modules…. this one allows for quick audio input from various sources shifted to eurorack levels
Stepper connected – on Modular Synth
An improvisation inspired by the era of accustic modems, when FidoNet was more affordable than internet. And printers and floppys were using stepper motors that we made music with.
The main arp voice is steadily modulated by random envelopes, and gates and notes are also triggered with probabilities from Black Sequencer.
Typhoon gets triggered from time to time and freezes into an interesting long spectral reverb cloud….
Sequencer – Erica Synths Black Sequencer Voices – Bastl Pizza (bass) / Behringer Brains (Plaits super saw arp) / 4ms Ensemble Oscillator (stepper sound)
Modulation – Instruo 0chd / Behringer Chaos (Marbles) EG – After Later Audio Baker modulating Brains VCA – Doepfer A130-8 for gating
Clock – ALM Pamelas New Workout FX – Endorphines Milky Way (Gated Reverb) / After Later Audio Typhoon (Spectral Clouds) / Neuzeit Instruments Quasar
Mix – Bastl Aikido / Endorphines Cockpit

Audio recorded from my #eurorack synthesizer and video recorded via iPhone combined in Final Cut Pro in HDR.
Bloom v1 – on Modular Synth
My first try creating a melody with Qu-Bit’s Bloom fractal sequencer.
I tried to let it sound a bit underwater bubble like, with some whale like noises in between.
Almost everything is modulating everything else, hard to tame….
Fractal Sequencer – Qu-Bit Bloom
Voices – 4ms Spherical Wavetable Navigator SWN / Bastl Pizza / 4ms Ensemble Oscillator / Neuzeit Instruments Warp
Filters – Bastl Cinnamon / Bastl Ikarie
Modulation – Instruo 0chd / Behringer Four LFO / Joranalogue Filter 8
EG – After Later Audio Baker / Klavis Quadigy
Clock – ALM Pamelas New Workout FX – Endorphines Milky Way / Qu-Bit Nautilus / After Later Audio Typhoon / Neuzeit Instruments Orbit
Mix – Bastl Aikido / Behringer Four Play / Endorphines Cockpit Drums – Endorphines Queen of Pentacles
Visualization – Mordax Data
Audio recorded from my #eurorack synthesizer and video recorded via iPhone combined in Final Cut Pro, first try HDR.
Befaco Bananuts – beautiful color anodized aluminum nuts
since I’m a visual guy everything has to be color coded in my rack,
who wants to learn every jack’s function or read fancy fonts when you simply see which color does what
My color coding:
Midi/Clock – Purple
Audio – Blue/Red
CV – Silver
V/Oct – Yellow
Trigger – Green
Modulation – Black
After Later Audio Popple
a clone of Mutable Instruments Ripples V1, multimode filter
Another Behringer Eurorack Go case
same problem, too many modules and still not enough power 😀
After Later Audio SHTH
a sample and hold, and track and hold module in 2HP
This time, the Klavis Quadigy quad programable envelope generator
The QU-Bit Electronix Bloom fractal sequencer.
Since a lot of people are asking in forums how to update firmware on STM devices like the Endorphines Cockpit, I decided to make a few slides and record this process so people can follow easily.
Just mute if you don’t like the background track.
I was just doing a quick 3min patch with my Ochd and Quasar to see if all went fine.
Thanks to Endorphin.es for continously improving their firmware releases.
Sequencer – Dnipro Metamorph
Voice – Behringer Brains
Modulation – Instruo Ochd
FX – Qu-Bit Nautilus, Neuzeit Instruments Quasar
Mix – Endorphines Cockpit
another two modules added to my Eurorack
Doepfer A-130-8 a linear 8 channel VCA
DivKid Ochd
the ultimate modulation source
Doepfer A-160-2 Clock Divider II Vintage Edition
I gave up on using my self made clock divider, as this module is so much more capable, especially for prime divisions
Synthrotek MIX
more passive mixing needs, so I bought two of them
Neuzeit Instruments WarpEx Expander
a Midi extension for the Warp module to control the 4 voices individually
