Hi Pat thanks has been a while

Woah, *senpai*

Thanks so much for your kind words. Its great to hear that likeminded souls get inspired by my videos 🙏🏼

You are very welcome :)

Yeah you don't really need much to have fun, however there's not a lot of other ways to patch this so the overall sound is always more or less the same

Thanks 🙏🏼

You are so welcome :)

A happy wife is a happy Life :)

Oh yeah, we would not NOT want to buy a Nautilus if she likes the looks so much, would we?

That is so nice to hear hahaha keep me posted

Me too!! 😊

..and yeah,it is meditation..

Thank you so much🙏🏼

Thank you!

Thanks man! thats nice to hear :)

Thanks a lot :)

Thanks 🙏🏼 that great to hear !

Thanks for that.

It is for sure

Thanks Daniel.

Hey hallo Thank you bedankt for you kindness. Great to hear that it inspires you. Be aware because Eurorack is highly addictive and there's no clinic that can help you out. Good luck and keep me posted about your journey

Goedemorgen. Two months after my comment to this video, and I now own a rack that is starting to fill up too fast, and I need more cables every week. The addiction is real, but my wallet is empty, so I better start making patches and show them on my channel. Thanks!

Thanks you that nice to hear 😊

Hey thanks man. I hope to inspire people. Eurorack is fun but it's also expensieve. But you don't need much to have a lot of fun with it!

Thanks 🙏🏼 yeah its nice hear people get inspired by this setup. Didn’t expect so many nice comments 😀

@@LittleAmbientMachine I'm so much inspired by it that I actually threw you a shoutout in my video I just dropped because seeing you use the Melodicer inspired me to make an Ableton MIDI rack equivalent. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d6x1oqZ7pq7Rhn0.html

Hahaha well can’t compare eurorack with a ‘regular’ synth. There just so so much to discover.

Hmmm i’ll take a look at the SiG….

No never but i’ll check it out 👍🏼 thanks for the tip

Hey thanks Yonga !

Maybe check out Instruo's Arbhar. I have hardly touched Morphagene since I got Arbhar.

This is very hard to catch in a video because there's just so many nice modules out there. I really like to play with Granular related Modules, loopers and effects but my system is changing a lot. I keep buying and selling modules, guess that's also part of this journey.

Modular grid. It's perfect for laying out your modular and it has a great marketplace

Modular grid goes a long way lot of second hand stuff and pretty reliable

Oooh these are really kind word, thank you so much :)

You are welcome and also I'm sorry to pull you guys and girls into a rabbit hole :) hahaha it is highly addictive.

Yes the time flies when you start with this combo

I only know parasites so i can compare the others, i love parasites and my monsoon has that on

It’s a website called modulargrid. And thanks for your kind words happy i did inspire you 👌🏼

It's Modular grid www.modulargrid.net/e/modules/home

Hey buddy thanks for reachin' out. The Melodicer can not be programmed. You can freeze a certain melody & rhythm, and you can also store them. But further is probabalistic all the time. All note have a fader and the higher you set the fader the more times it will play that certain note. It's really great for happy accidents and you can also set it to play random melodies and rhythms constantly in the same scale. I hope this helps. Cheers L.A.M.

Thanks buddy, this is the link : www.modulargrid.net/e/modules/home

Fx is all you need to create ambient music 😀

I know -- right?

No not really i only modules that can do thing software can’t . Except for Monsoon en Rangoon( cloud and rings) the rest is not nearly on VCV

@@LittleAmbientMachine Thx for your return

@@julesgaardls you can't recreate it exactly but there are stochastic generators in VCV Rack, and plenty of interesting effects modules that could make up for the absence of Qu-Bit Nautilus. (I want one so bad.) Clouds is in there 1-to-1 and will already get you halfway there if you're trying to experiment with ambient. All the same functionality will be available in VCV but it will look much different. The workflow and patching setup might be different.

Hi Samuel, the website for configurations is www.modulargrid.net/ The sequence in the beginning was also made with this little system, the same way as i show in the video. Hope this answers your question, cheers Mike

@@LittleAmbientMachine that's a lot 👍

Remember it does only random stuff so you can't program it. However you can store a pattern

Yes, but that's exactly what I am looking for with generatve patching. But I think I can get close with Westlicht Performer too. I need to investigate :)

I kept The nautilus for a while but swapped it recently for a Mimeophon.

Hey thanks for reachin' out. The site your mean is called Modular grid. It has a marketplace and also the possibility to plan your Eurorack setup. In this case i use one voice and yes there's not al lot of different ways to patch it. This is just one of the many mini systems i build, play with, and take apart. I hve some other modules on the side. However the main thing i like to do with eurorack is playing with loopers, granular and effects. Not a lot patching either but great for the mind. Effects bring so much nice extra harmonics that get me inspired. So with this little system you will be able to have a lot of fun though....

@@LittleAmbientMachine sounds great! Many thanks for the reply.

Yeah it is kind of expensive it took me also 6 years to find out what in want and need...

I was lucky with Scheidersladen….. they always have lots

No not really i mostly buy modules that are exceptional you won’t find them in soffware

@@LittleAmbientMachine Rings and Clouds are already a part of the default VCV Rack / Cardinal distribution. Pamela's Workout it's just a clock generation, so you have several alternatives. The choice of sequencer/quantizer modules you're using is even too big to narrow here. Your music sounds good, no disrespect, but if you think you're using some kind of "unique" modular process, I'm afraid you'll be dissapointed. Again, no diss to you music intended, or to modular if it suits your taste, but the basic patch is still clock > random sequencer > quantization > delay/reverb > mix.

@@lagunagfx It's all good :) no worries, thanks for you comment. As for Rings and Cloud you are 100% right (but clouds doesn't have the parasite FW and Rings sounds like shit in VCV) but Pam's can do way more than just clocking. Modules like Mophagene, Lubadh, DLD or Starlab are nowhere to be found on VCV or even as VST (but yes you have delays and reverbs) . But the main reason to me is that there's a big difference between working with a Mouse and VCV or with real modules. I'm very well aware that i'm not using some kind of unique modular process. I do use VCV rack sometimes and I also use iOS apps. My Eurorack setup is for 80% based on modules that can't be found on VCV, mainly FX and granular stuff. I don't take myself to serious it's just a lot of fun to make content and music. Cheers Mike

@@LittleAmbientMachine If it fits your way of working, then fine, man. To each, their own, as they say. I really dig your music. I know many modules have multiple functions, though I find some of them quite overpriced and/or redundant (if we just consider achievable function and disregard size and portability, of course). I personally lean to an hybrid process and don’t mind using computers or even code, so most of my modules are simpler analog elements. Tactile feedback could be achieved through controllers, though is not an “out of the box” experience. I’d recommend you to check Cardinal instead of VCV. They’re very close but since Cardinal is all open source without the commercial aspect of VCV I think it has a deeper focus in stability and quality. Anyway, no disrespect intended in my criticism. The music is what matters in the end and as I said, I really enjoy it. Peace, man

@@lagunagfx Hey man, don't worry about disrespect i don't feel it like that at all. I mean your comments are totally true and worth thinking about. As you said before everyone has his own way of creating things (music, paintings, art whatever.) I really like all these comments, to me it is part of me ever expanding hobby and it also brings me new inspiration. So yeah, i'm going to look into Cardinal althought i'm still now a big fan of Mouse and software hahahaha. Having said that i'm now working on a video about making a sample with eurorack and work on that in Bitwig Studio. Talk to ya soon >>> peace!!

Modular Grid 👍🏼

Nautilus is pretty good for creating sounds, especially the freeze functions is useful and it also has some other modes that can be used in order to create new sounds. But you really do need a reverbr behind this. I think the nautilus can go pretty extreme and a reverb behind it will soften the sound. So i use Nautilus more as a sound creation module and not so much as a Delay. The best "Delay" for ambient music is the Dual looping delay imo. Because this gives a very long and organic delay and the reverse function is nicer than the one on Nautilus. If you are into drones then the Nautilus is worth trying. If you are looking for a delay to delay trigger sounds then better go for DLD. In the end it's a matter of taste. The Nautilus id definitly a one of a kind module. You can buy it and if you don't like it it's very easy to sell it :0 haha ......Hope this helps !

Thank you for your quick response. I will consider your suggestion. Keep on going. :)

Its the Rangoon ( rings clone) by BigTmusic

@@LittleAmbientMachine Why not use rings, if this is a clone, copy, not a good thing

Oow yes software of course. But really I don't like to work with a Mouse and keyboard. If you never touched "the real thing" then it's hard to understand. My music became so much more interesting since i started using Eurorack. And i also use Software sometimes but merely just for the presets. I hardly dive deep into VST's.....

@@LittleAmbientMachine I also love to touch my Hardware synths and sequencers. Here your are absolutely right. At the moment I try to perform live with synths, sequencer and sampler, record every instrument in a separate track. But after this I work on it with the DAW. So I hope I can manage to use the best of both worlds. Thanks for your interesting work.

I have iPad, AUM, Rack, VCv, Vst, iOs apps (like borderlands) , Bitwig, synths. But nothing is more fun than the real Eurorack. It’s so full of happy accidents. I sold most of my Eurorack a while ago and went on with only iPad and so but that didn’t do it for me….

@@LittleAmbientMachine physical world experience is also important, no doubts. I find small cases more attractive and focused. Not going to get into Eurorack though.

@@wickeddubz I should't have done it either but it's too late now, i'm addicted to Eurorack and making content with it. Takes a lot of time and I don't make any money with it. BUT..... it's very good for the mind and with all the crazyness going on in this world i think it's 200% worth it.

@@LittleAmbientMachine it’s all about being happy and focused on creation. I decided to assemble few MFOS devices in the honor of Ray Wilson and his legacy. No matter how many synths i have, i feel i must do this.

That would be around € 2400,- euro

What do you mean with a review copy?

@@LittleAmbientMachine I thought you were making this for sale. And I wanted to test it and write an article of it. But after I wrote that, I realized that it was only one copy of that. Sorry.

ALM Busy circuits 6U52HP

@@LittleAmbientMachine thank you!

Yeah i'm kind of over it too. But then again it can be so peaceful. So every once in a while we need Rings into Clouds
