I'm not actually sure - but pretty sure - you've seen the handful of recent videos where they've done this recently together? :). If you break modular into different pieces its simpler to understand. Generally a source signal being sent to various places and having effects or changes applied, then LFO's (invisible hands) tweak the knobs of those changes ever so slowly to produce movement, then they're routed out for you to hear :)

The workflow of this seems really good! Like, I already have reverb, delay, compressor, filter and distortion modules in my setup, but having them all in one unit and being able to press a button to toggle between routings speeds things up so much -- vs using half of your synth to achieve similar results. This is a great option for smaller systems and appreciate that's how you pitched it!

I find this to be a really beautiful module - I think it'd be a star, especially for many small/starter modular set ups. I love the nature of the saturation on the in-gain, especially in combination with distortion - it has a nice tape warmth. I really like this! And it might be something I find I really want for my first set up if I ever am able to get into modular. The ability to easily change the chain is really cool, and I think makes this especially versatile. Very well done!

Andrew I just wanna say that my three favorite kinds of videos you make are: 1. Explaining and experimenting with synth patches, especially when you're not alone - Rob's latest video with you guys just patching and jamming for an hour was one of my favorites! It scratches the same itch as watching tool restoration videos for me, it's just very entertaining to watch someone with a ton of technical knowledge exercise their skills to make something beautiful 2. 4 Producers 1 Sample. Just super fun. 3. Song challenges. It's lovely to get to see you tackle incredibly strange and difficult creative problems. Longtime fan of the channel and love all the great work you do. Thank you for sharing your experience and enthusiasm with all of us here on KZfaq!

Andrew, congratulations on your first module, I wish you all the best for taking this step. That said, when I started watching, I had my doubts about so many functions in one module, knob density etc. Which kind of contradicts the idea of modular (at least one school of thought). BUT! The honesty and openness at the end of the video blew me away - and also put Ghost on my shopping list. The more I think about it, the more I feel it´s a good fit even in bigger systems. Yes, if you want to access or modulate more parameters of a main voice, dedicated modules are the way. Which costs in hp and $$$. But in my 2 monster cases I don´t always need that: Some voices will get the full enchilada through dedicated modules, but not all. And it´s always helpful to have a little background here, a little effect there, contributing to the overall arrangement. And that´s where even in the largest systems Ghost will find its place, at least in my setup. Which leaves the question: Will there be a DIY version?
