I've had one for two years and I haven't understood it at all until this video. I've had a lot going on, almost none of it good, but it will be nice to mess with this now.

You all probably dont give a shit but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot the password. I would love any tips you can give me!

@Bjorn Hudson instablaster ;)

@Wayne Ben thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.

@Wayne Ben HOLY **** IT REALLY WORKED :O Literally hacked my ig account after about 40 minutes by using the site. Just had to pay 15 $ but for sure worth the money =) Thanks so much, you saved my ass !

@Bjorn Hudson no problem =)

Thanks man!

Totally agree with you very easy to understand how to use it :)

Thanks!

Thanks Vitor, enjoy the new module!

One? :) Maths is a thing of beauty. I want another one. Need another one. I might build a Random*Source DUSG in Euro first though.

Thanks Dwight!

Awesome have fun with it!

I'll add it to my list :)

I was thinking about getting the Maths or the Rampage... I've made up my mind after watching this. Both. Arg!... :)

thanks, glad it was helpful!

cheers, thank you!

Thanks!

You're welcome Pedro!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks man, glad it triggered some ideas for you!

That's a good tip thanks, I'll keep that in mind for the next tutorials.

Thanks! I'll add the uScale to my list of tutorials, thanks for the suggestion!

Yes! A tutorial on the uscale would be very much appreciated.

Awesome tutorial on the uscale. Thank you!

Thanks man!

Thanks! glad it was helpful.

Thanks!

Thank you, glad it was helpful!

Thanks. Yeah Maths is a tricky one. Even now that I understand the basic controls, I still struggle to find creative applications beyond just the basics.

once upon a synth I’m sure it’ll take a while to completely figure it out

lol I know what you mean. It's a tricky module. Even after understanding how it works it's still tough to put it into practice beyond the basics.

once upon a synth it'd be cool if you did a video on making music with it

That's a good idea. I'll put it on my list.

thanks!

Welcome!

I'll add it to my list! (I have an old generation one though)

Thank you :) looking forward to it!

Thanks Brian!

Not certain, but they look a lot like the Nazca Noodles that Pittsburgh Modular sell.

Well first thing to realize is that you’re not actually getting the full 1st and 4th channels of Maths, because neither Function nor Contour has built in attenuation. If you already have a ton of attenuation, inversion, offset, and mixing in your setup then you could probably do without some of the logic stuff especially if you don’t do generative patching or use complex modulation by combining multiple sources. However, if you don’t have a lot of utilities, you’ll probably be patching and think “damn, I wish I had another attenuator/mixer/offset voltage” and that’s where Maths comes in clutch. The best way to get the most out of a Maths like module in the least HP is probably the Cosmotronic Delta V which is two function generators and two VCA’s in 10hp.

The cycle input simple toggles the cycle on or off. it's like a gate input for pressing the cycle button. So as long as a gate is high in this input it will keep looping. The trigger input actually triggers the function. Hope that makes sense.

@@onceuponasynth Got it. Thanks a lot!

The S output (actually more of a old-timey F; this is the mathematical symbol for a function) and the 1 output both output the same thing, but the 1 output can be attenuated positively or negatively

yeah for sure

once upon a synth What-no way! I am on the fence about the Make Noise shared system. My concern is the lack of voices. Coming from a conventional band and trying to make experimental noise music now. Puce Mary, Pharmakon, etc. Wondering if that system will do it.

lol thanks. If all brains functioned like mine the world would be a boring place.

Never mind. I guess I needed to understand my VCA/Mixer better. I'm trying to rewire my brain for CV.

So the "SUM" output would be 7. But the OR output outputs the highest value out of the inputs (in this case 5). From the manual: "It always outputs the highest voltage out of all the voltages applied to the inputs".

once upon a synth i accidentally stumbled upon this video i'm here with a mathematical background. I guess that that OR function isn't the same as the mathematical OR function i searched for analog computer and this was the first hit. When i wrote that comment i thought that this was a genuine analog computer video. I didn't realize that this was about music

Ah got it that makes sense.

Yeah modulars are interesting beasts. I definitely need much more practice with it in order to coax something other than bleeps and bloops out of it. My goal with this eurorack box is to explore more experimental sounds because I already have too many traditional synths. I think the key for me will be utilizing a quantized sequencer or a standard keyboard and making modulation much more subtle. I was listening to this podcast the other day where they mentioned that modulars should be treated like traditional instruments in that you need lots of practice to get it to sound good. The problem is most people swap out module and re-configure the modular too often so it becomes harder to master one setup. Hopefully with enough patience and practice I will end up with something more melodic and pleasing. Thanks for the feedback!

what podcast was it? great video series btw!!

Jürgen Branz Thanks! It was on the "Art + Music Technology" podcast, the episode where he interviews Tom Erbe (at around the 13:30 mark). artmusictech.libsyn.com/podcast-150-tom-erbe

once upon a synth ah yeah, was listening to that one too lately. top stuff. cheers!

Very well done. Answers a lot of Q's!

Maybe a hybrid computer?
