Endorphin.es - Milky Way effects walk through

[@RickyTinez]

No Joke, a dream module of mine. I've been waiting for a GOOD sounding small multi-FX module. Ya'll nailed it.

[@motoboy6666]

Not exactly nailed it, since most people seem to have modules with a lot of unwanted noise in them.

[@strongocho]

Oh shit, Ricky Tinez in the wild hahaha. I am a huge fan, I actually bought one of these based on a video you made.

[@graviton9282]

Mine seems just fine... in fact I can crank the vca all the way up with no problem.

[@Elfaki19]

Hi Ricky! Love your channel. Was wondering, have you experienced any unwanted hiss in using this module?? Thank you for all of your hard work~

[@frederickbrummer5680]

@@motoboy6666 There's a firmware update that fixes the noise problem

[@CinematicLaboratory]

Almost all videos on YT run the Milky Way in mono, while the 'spatial movement' features are totally awesome. I had no idea it would pan and swap the stereo image of in1 and in2. Also, there have been reports of noise, but the latest update sounds very clean. Here's a video I did yesterday after reading the manual a few times. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2KUe2OciMiVb68

Quality piece of kit right through, from the look, design, and the coding of the effects algorithms, you could litter a system with these, great module.

Any chance of adding a Phaser algorithm in the future?

[@CinematicLaboratory]

It took me a while, but I got one! Love it.

[@Radar23]

Handy video..

[@MakingSoundMachines]

Wow this module sounds really really nice!

[@famousarmystudio]

the first reverb sounds very much like the verb in the Elektron A4 and the DT.

[@Endorphines]

probably because that's very typical hall reverb and whatever the algorithm hall will sound similar - maybe with different shines etc but with a huge space in mind. and room will sound like room, closed ambience. and you can't confuse it with the spring reverb etc. :)

[@Elfaki19]

I love this module and the idea behind it. I bought one because of this video. However (and this was mentioned by another person as well) it is extremely noisy. Some effects are mostly quite and clean but a lot of them have so much hiss. I've tried different things but nothing works. Any suggestions? Thank you~

[@BenWorden]

I can't hear any of the noise/hiss in this video that is ultra-present in my module. I've done all the firmware updates and still no matter what configuration I patch with this it won't work. I bought this module after watching this video and still have hope but kind of at a loss - if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. Much love to Endorphins so far for the support and for their other modules - I have a Godspeed and LOVE IT!

[@ADDMIKEIX]

Maybe you should try to give the module a bit of headroom by reducing the level of your incoming source

[@BenWorden]

@@ADDMIKEIX Thanks for the advice, I will definitely try this. For some FX there is no noise though, but for others it's unbearable. I'm not sure why that is but attenuating the signal coming in might help a LOT. Appreciate the tip.

[@apparently_sonam]

@@BenWorden Wrong. You need less headroom... :-) At the back there are is an input gain toggle. Use a screwdriver and try and turnthe input level as high without it distorting. Then you don't need to max out the master knob, thus less audible noise floor.

[@Elfaki19]

Glad you brought this up. Having similar issues.

[@Jamobry]

Did the gain toggle fix the noise issue? I love the look of this module but don’t want it with noise.

[@TJ-vv3ex]

[@ericmosh]

I've heard there is a little his/noise coming from the stereo output of this module. Is it true?

[@dr1059]

@@ericmosh yeah I heard this , but never happened to me , pretty happy with module

[@angeldc54]

Imo the sequence's tempo is way too fast to really appreciate the quality of a long reverb

[@rhampton1914]

Is it possible to mix Ring Mod and add delay with that or is this module only capable of 1 effect at a time..Please advise.

[@Syncopator]

This looks pretty awesome-- question-- can the LFO rate of the flanger be set to 0?

[@Endorphines]

thank you for the question. actually the LFO range was picked to a sweet spotted really usable musical values. if it will be 0, then it will not be a flanger but a short delay or something, isn't? but we could try to extend the range - in the end MODULAR itself is famous of extreme possible ranges of values

[@Syncopator]

@@Endorphines That was kind of my point-- with a flanger, setting the sweep rate to zero effectively makes it a comb filter, and THAT is the effect I'm most interested in.

[@Endorphines]

@@Syncopator ah okay, got it. well, we have that comb filter with resonance in the grand terminal or squawk dirty but we will thing what we could do with that LFO of the flanger

[@Syncopator]

@@Endorphines Thanks. Having a comb filter as part of a multimode filter is a nice idea, but I've got plenty of LP/BP/HP/Notch style filters already-- what I don't have enough of is delay/reverb and similar effects-- so having a comb in that mix is far more useful to me in particular... And since delay/flanger/comb are constructed similarly for the most part, it seems like it ought to fit right in. Frankly, I think comb filtering is a bit overlooked-- running a complex oscillator through a comb filter can pull out some really interesting harmonic behaviors. And it's nice that there's one in the Grand Terminal, but.... uh... it's kinda big.... ;-)

[@boe466]

I tried a stereo input today for the first time using a ping pong delay on the input. Is it normal that everything comes out of both outputs loosing all the stereo information? I am using the normal hall reverb.

[@Endorphines]

please ensure you have panning/crossfade settings set to proper values: either reset them by pressing both buttons for 4-5 seconds or press TYPE for 2 seconds once the LED will light up PINK. Then tweak the PRESSURE knob to the center (both out 1 and 2 have equal power) and knob FEVER to the CCW (in1 goes to out 1 and in 2 goes to out 2). also be sure you are on the latest firmware airways.endorphin.es/

[@boe466]

@@Endorphines thank you for the fast help!! I updated to the newest firmware and now everything works perfectly. Love the module by the way and can only recommend it to everyone :)

[@Endorphines]

@@boe466 glad to hear that. yes, in the latest update panning and span/xfade parameters are not set to default values after reset

[@OctavianTech]

why are Spring Reverb and Ping Pong Delay repeated in the Darkwaves Bank from the Airways Bank? Is there any difference between the Airways and Darkwaves versions?

[@Endorphines]

good eye! only a few effects are duplicated but not because it is just for fun, but also because they are reserved for some other stuff :)

[@OctavianTech]

@@Endorphines ah ok so you are just duplicating for now until a future firmware update? makes sense rather than leaving the slots empty I suppose

[@dddamons]

Sounds great! Is this based on FV-1 architecture?

[@Endorphines]

not FV-1. that's our own DSP algorithms, 48khz, 16 bit and lots of that effects were developed for Grand Terminal 3 years ago already

[@ezrashanti]

@@Endorphines Is this module 16 bit 48khz?

[@argiopeMusic]

"built in VCA"... so this could be used as a simple stereo VCA without turning on any effects? That'd make this a no-brainer...

[@strangerting7818]

My only question is whether I should get 2.

[@RickyTinez]

did someone say quadraphonic modular system?

[@nickyp310]

Damn!

[@ArthurRobertofficial]

Is t possible to use two separate effects at the same time? As in two mono signals patched into both inputs and process them individually with different effects? Because if yes then I’m pretty much sold

[@Endorphines]

not yet, only one algorithm per preset so far, but we work for more things to come

[@mrtessellate]

This should a best seller. Was "In My Neighborhood" created using your latest modules ? I would love to see a top view performance of Queer or Concrete !!!

[@JuliaBondar]

Mr Tessellate, In My Neighborhood, was created on the Shuttle system, Roland system 1M, and Blck Noir. There were no new modules were created at that time. BTW I was performing whole album couple of times live. Now I have a new EP coming where I slightly used the new modules and the same setup I mentioned above. And thank you.

[@killahkay2112]

I still think this would have been better with an extal knob ... to access the "hidden "parameter

[@Endorphines]

or fourth knob + jack for that parameter? yes, but then it will be fatter and not so elegant as in 6 hp

[@killahkay2112]

@@Endorphines still would be better . I find I have the same problem with my blck-noir as with clouds . fighting with that menu button . the Miky way (or at least effect on my Back-noir ) is such a good module tho. I only want More of it... :p

[@thirdsmusic]

what is the best way to determine that your incoming signal is at the correct level since there is no input level meter? i see the trim pots on the back for in/out but just was wondering. thx!

[@Endorphines]

when the trimmers are CCW, then input signal expected - modular level approx. +/-5V or 10Vpp. If trimmers are fully CW, then input signal expected = line level 1Vpp, +/-0.5V. Middle positions - somewhere in between

[@digbybrown8991]

Does this receive clock in any way? The manual talks about cabin fever setting "the clock division of the incoming tap/clock" but I can only see the tap button and no associated input.

[@Endorphines]

Indeed we tried to make new manuals as easy as possible by cutting the deep stuff which should be present in the annex later. However all the effects in the Milky Way (2 banks) are same with same controls as in BLCK_NOIR and GRAND TERMINAL modules. You may check BN manual at page 10: endorphin.es/assets/blck_noir_manual_191002.pdf or GT manual at page 12: endorphin.es/assets/endorphin.es_grand_terminal_manual_fw1.6_170316.pdf There is basically one clocked delay which is called ping-pong one. Tap button works as a manual clock button and its secondary function (1 sec press) enters into clock input operation with divider selection with Fever knob (which works normally as feedback knob in primary normal mode).

Love the module, but the manual is not very helpful sadly
