Thank you. Yes, I have updated the video description with links. I also have few small 104 cases for overflow that I'm deciding to keep or sell or maybe hold to swap back in later. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer.

Thank you for the kind words. I hope I don't disappoint as I noodle around. I try to limit my posts to stuff that's at least kind of good.

@@VinceFinemMusic you're very welcome! I'm fairly new to Eurorack and greatly enjoy seeing how everyone customizes their setup and how they use it. You seem to really know your gear!

What sold me was the price! It's less than half of what every other mixer module is charging plus, it's just the right size for starting out.

@@facundofontela316 please feel free to use whatever you wish from what I have uploaded as of 18NOV24. As long as you don't sell it and you give credit. That's all I ask. As for why I have this? I was saving money for a house but there are no houses in my area and the ones I that I used to be able to afford are now out of reach. So, to cure my depression I decided if learn how to make music. I just couldn't stand to do it all in PC/Mac because I've been using them for school and work since the 90s and can't stand them anymore. Hands on with modular is much more interesting to me. Of course, if I had musical education or training, I'd probably be making much better music but with modular (or free VCV rack app) anyone can make lovely stuff. And that is why I started - you don't need to be Hans Zimmer.

Thank you. I don't have any background in musicianship, but I have been very slowly gaining a few subs as I learn and mess around, not always making the most musical of creations. I'm actually kind of surprised that people seem to like those rather unmusical creations that are more like sound explorations. My wife and I agree that this is one my better, more complete songs I have made that went beyond just a short repetitive beat. After I slowly got up to 35 subs, I lost two immediately after posting this, which I thought was my best lol. I guess they just wanted to see me make weird noises!

@VinceFinemMusic just do what you like to do, everything else will follow 🙏

If you have patches you don't mess with, a cheap spool of vecro ribbon does wonders for organizing and keeping the clutter down. I'm still very much learning so I'm always tearing down and rebuilding my setup.

Thank you! Still have lots of practice to do! Still figuring out lots of stuff and I need to start better learning what I have and stop buying new modules.

You're doing a really good job! That's a problem with these modular systems, which multiply all by themselves. I've reached my limit and have no more space (one desk is full). I've decided that if I want to buy something new, I have to sell something first.

@@VinceFinemMusic I'm having that same issue lately, and my bank account keeps begging for a break

@@milan-murratti that's a great idea! Hit the limit and then force an out with the old, one for one exchange concept in action. I got GAS with Hiking equipment years ago, and had to do the same. It helped with figuring out what I really want and which ones I value and use the most. Now that I've been bitten by the Modular bug, a lot of that has been sold and traded off for Modules

@@TangoDelta70 This week I'm boxing up and selling my mini synths (before modular, I got into the Roland Airas and the Korg Volcas.) I also need to sell off some of my extra modules that I just don't get along with. I need to make it a priority to really learn what I currently have and stop accumulating.

I preordered from the similar shop here, Sweetwater. Took a few months to ship.

@@VinceFinemMusic Patience is not my strongest point 😉

My wife wanted me to show the girl's dream. But I don't have the editing skill for that lol! It would take me forever to get anything I'd like.

@@VinceFinemMusic 😊

So a Behringer Chaos is not a sound source. It's a sequencer that produces 2 things: CV for modulating 1V/Oct pitch. And gates that are used to open and close envelopes. (Like all things modular you can route those voltage and gates to anything to experiment but pitch and envelopes are the most straightforward here.) The drum sounds themselves are coming from the SoundForce S-LD and S-909 modules. They are very simple one one-shot samples. A trigger goes in and a sound sample comes out.

Oh and the fm drum, if I'm guessing correctly the drum you're talking about, is coming from the Behringer Brains but I don't remember what setting it was. Also, the Behringer Chaos is a clone of the Mutable Instruments Marbles. The Behringer Brains is a clone of Mutable Instruments Plaits. You can get a better understanding of what they do by looking up info on them, since Behringer either doesn't create manuals or they make very poor ones for their cloned gear.

@@VinceFinemMusic ..excellent information.. I fully understand.. I didn't realize that Chaos was a Marbles clone.. thank you again.. I just subscribed..

I think I sold like 3 or 4 on my reddit post. It's on sale at ChuckLevins.com for 445 USD - that's less than the used price. But, sadly, the extra shipping to you would make it negligible, I'm guessing.

@@VinceFinemMusic No, I don't need any more tempting!!!! 😯😉

It's quickly becoming mine but I don't have a whole lot of experience. After looking through videos on virtually everything on Modular Grid, I think the only other one in the running was the Erica Synths Black Seq. But if I spent anymore on this hobby my wife would kill me.

Oh, and I haven't even started to read the manual or use the mod lane yet. There's so much depth to this thing that it's almost overwhelming at first. But it's so dang easy to get up and running with some cool tracks, right out of the box!

Not sure if that's a good, bad, ugly or meh wow lol.

@@VinceFinemMusic Wow is good m'friend!! Thanks so much for the sub 🙌

It almost sounds as if it's a burbling, gurgling engine with some settings!

I used to call it repetitive. But, ever since I watched this documentary, I call it 'minimalism' lol. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXvPeJ2JhtupfdU

Yes that’s a great documentary

Absolutely, thanks for the kind words!

This has been, so far, the only song I recorded playing live. Everything else has been programmed on a sequencer or generated randomly from a module. I never learned to play an instrument as a child and now very much regret it. I think everybody should at least a little music education beyond primary school but it's not required in the US. hopefully there's still time to learn enough to at least play when something strikes a chord within me.

@@VinceFinemMusic I remember vaguely having an hour of music during my first year at primary school, now like Donkey's years ago. My parents didn't think I was musically gifted so I never learned to play anything. It didn't stop me from starting modular a few years ago. I play what feels and sounds good and try to put in a certain atmosphere, an emotion. I believe playing both live and patching actively and experimenting, like really a lot, is the way to go. Keep up doing what you are doing Lee 🙂

I cannot promise that everything I make will be good, or even listenable. There are many times I spend hours and don't end up with anything of satisfaction. However, I only post something "bad" if it at least has an interesting aspect that I want to catalog so I can reflect on my progress. I was in the part of the world around 1998-2001 when the US Air Force stationed me in Germany. I still put mayo on my frites which not many do in the US lol.

​@@VinceFinemMusic I have tons of 'unfinished' stuff that I find awful and some stuff that needs a fresh approach or to be revisited in another state of mind. I am pretty sure this is the case with every creator. I can't imagine putting something else than mayo on my fries, well, maybe pickles. Ketchup is a no-go ;-)

Well, if you get too impatient, there's always spending 3x on the original. I'm still waiting in the Behringer Abacus and the Victor modules. They also have a RS9 drum machine module still in the works hopefully!

Sounds good to me with headphones.
