Shakmat Modular - Dual Dagger. Amazing Stereo Filter!!

[@J_Carter]

You just saved me from cluttering up my rack with 18hp of QPAS! Love your videos so much. Great sounds + solid info

[@fentanyljones6956]

I’m baffled that this filter isn’t in every case on Earth lol. It sounds so beautiful

[@_rkrd]

It sounds very different from a QPAS. Just because they both process 2 channels doesn't mean they are anything alike. Check out the video from Divkid to listen what the QPAS can do.

[@BurkhardusX]

@@_rkrd I have QPAS. It’s the best.

[@katelikesrectangles]

sometimes a musical demo is just the trick! thank you, this makes so much sense hearing it in context. love the UI for this filter

[@TheUnperson]

Thank you! I also love the UI - so perfect for performance :)

[@jurgendabeedin441]

Just bought the kit version. Can't wait to get building! 😎

[@KevinMarlow_uk]

Me too 😮 Update: I've built it and at first listen and very pleased with the smooth tone of it.

[@TheUnperson]

Niice ~ enjoy!!

[@TheUnperson]

It is indeed verrry smooth 😎

[@jurgendabeedin441]

Excellent build and superb filter. Definitely a keeper 😎

[@brianreilly6545]

Excellent sounding filter n great demo. Got Bastl Ikarie and loving it, but the need of another filter has arrived. This is now at the top of the list. Thx!👍🏻

[@TheUnperson]

Oh man... I don't own any Bastl stuff yet but I seem to want everything they bring out. Cheers dude!

[@NateHorn]

brillaint demo 👏👏👏

[@TheUnperson]

thank you! :D

[@Brianmann76]

Sweet tones and nice going through what this thing does in a timely/effective manner. Great demo!

[@TheUnperson]

cheers man! :D

[@Don_Kikkon]

Mine just arrived in the mail from Thonk, ordered a mere 8 days ago! I'm in Western Australia, that's crazy fast. Safe to say this excellent vid was the clincher in that decision, just a no-brainer really. It's as much an effect as it is a shaping control. So along with the new 4MS Looping Delay and Sampler kits the outlook for the rest today looks to be cloudy with a chance of chicken blisters. Thanks so much for all your great vids. They're just great performances, the Plaits series in particular are just fat sounds to have on while I'm chilling at home. Brill.

[@TheUnperson]

Thanks for your kind words. That’s a crazy fast delivery! Hope you’re r hoping the dual dagger!!

[@ashleyjones553]

you are an absolute legend mate!

[@garaughty]

Such awesome tones... epic work on this Unperson !

[@TheUnperson]

cheers man!!

[@Reyescult]

Superb Demo! I gotta have one of these.

[@TheUnperson]

Cheers! It's still my fav filter module :)

[@Reyescult]

@@TheUnperson That's awesome. I can't wait to get my hands on one.

[@Probbie]

Wow, that filter sounds so good. 😍 Definitely on the list! Thanks so much 🙌

[@TheUnperson]

thank you!! :D

[@Rooger_modular]

Love it!

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

I ordered a Dual Dagger to play with my stereo Acid Chainsaw since I needed a stereo filter.

[@LeonTrimble]

Shakmat=king

[@ObKling]

At 2:30, it sounds like there is quite a wide stereo field. That's not the filter, right? That width is in whatever you're feeding it?

[@Buica-4]

Again amazing content 👌. You are the best person I know to ask this ; Which is you favourite FILTER pedal ? So I use on my pedalboard(guitar) . Thank you 🙏

[@TheUnperson]

Cheers man! It's been a while since I had a guitar pedalboard set-up so I'm a bit out the loop.. but I reckon the Dreadbox Kinematic would be a pretty good choice :)

[@mpingo91]

What caused the radical change in sound from @4:28 to @4:30? I see you pressed a key on the controller with your index finger, but what exactly caused the sound to change from a buzz to a quacky?

[@TheUnperson]

I think it was just bringing the cutoff frequency further down, rolling off the high end but with some modulation coming in from maths :)

[@el_dani]

it was a key change on the OP-1 keyboard

[@vinylarchaeologist]

How do you rhythm-sync the OP-1 and your modular / Pam's? Do you just do it by hand? - Thank you for your great videos!

[@TheUnperson]

thanks! Yea I'm just pressing play simultaneously. Would be cool if I could sync them somehow but haven't sussed it yet...

[@nielshulgard3722]

@@TheUnperson @///// Familiar Unknown ///// Don't know if you are interested, but I have found 2 ways. One is to use a usb midi host (kenton in my case) and a midi to cv module (befaco midi host in my case). This is of course both expensive and and takes up case space. Something I've found that works and is a bit more rough and easy is to set the OP-1 in pocket operator sync mode and have a stereo trs to dual mono trs (or ts + adapters). Then you get a click track in one channel and mono audio in the other. I then send the click track to a comparator which then creates eurorack gates from the click track, i.e. a clock. I've used a tripfire audio comparator and gate delay for this, but I would also think the comparator algorithm on something like disting mk 4 would work (or any comparator, maybe there even is a Maths patch, I dunno mats so well). Same trick works for pocket operators.

[@TheUnperson]

@@nielshulgard3722 cheers for that man! It’s surprisingly complicated thing to do haha!

[@nielshulgard3722]

@@TheUnperson you're welcome! Yeah, it really is a quirk of the OP-1 that it syncs poorly with other things

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

@@TheUnperson maybe a USB to MIDI host and then MIDI to CV module would work? I have trouble getting my OP-1 to play well with modular.

[@R3V1ZION]

Very nice!

[@TheUnperson]

cheers!! :D

[@daghesan]

I don't have this module (yet), but I think a direct comparison with the QPAS is unfair. That module can do so many things that, on paper, I don't see happening with the Dual Dagger

[@TheUnperson]

I think it’s fair! They’re both stereo filters, and both great modules, but ultimately the extra features of QPAS don’t outweigh the features of the Dual Dagger, for me.

[@mindrobber1962]

my dual dagger seem to loose volume on the low pass filter side as you turn up the resonance. Do you have that issue?

[@TheUnperson]

Yea mine does that too. This happens with most analogue filters. I had a moog sub37 and it was exactly the same thing.

[@TheCheeriosMan]

Just wondering how you’re bringing the audio in from the OP-1? Seems like a sweet pico module. Great tones! I was sold on the WMD C4rbn but then this has me wondering if this filter would be better suited. Different feature set for sure.

[@TheUnperson]

Hi Justin. I'm using the pico Input module to bring the level of the OP1 up. It is not essential to have this module but it does help in some situations :)

[@dr.feelicks2051]

Is this a cutoff freq?….knob within reach….come, let me tweak thee✌️

[@michaelt_tamtam]

Oh no, a flat Earther!

[@blacksand.]

Based of your utilisation of filters, you really SHOULD give the WMD Overseer a look, it has what others don't : a bypass switch !!

[@TheUnperson]

Oh I've not even heard of this filter before.. checking it out now :)

@@TheUnperson Bastl Ikarie is another interesting one.

@@fts4life It's on the radar... i seem to want everything that Bastl do lol
