Thanks Mick! The "guitar" is Plaits -> QPAS -> DivKid Stereo Strip -> Desmodus Versio, if i remember correctly. The "bass" is just the Mother32.

@@felix_ennui Thanks for reply! So it's some mode of Plaits stereo filtered and EQd/distorted, right? Maybe you remember which mode of Plaits is used here? I'm relatively new to eurorack, but really interested in getting rock vibes from it as well.

The DFAM has frequency modulation built in accessed via the 1→2 FM Amount knob. It gets pretty nasty pretty quick.

People say a lot of things…

Thanks buddy! Hope all is well.

Many thanks, Mister Generator!

Thanks cheffing! Make it happen!

Thanks gm! I plan on it.

Thanks Neve!

I’m using the Arturia Keystep Pro for sequencing. Switching scenes on the fly, it’s really fun and easy way to compose.

@@felix_ennui How is the sub changing scenes?

Via the Keystep Pro. KSP has three dedicated pitch sequencers, one of which is going to the Subharmonicon.

@@felix_ennui Very interesting. Thanks!

Hey thanks! I sampled the vocals into the morphagene and ran a very fast arpeggiator into its vari-speed cv input.

The dc motor in the spring reverb is being sent a trigger making that trash can kick drum sound. On the fan I have an electromagnetic pickup being sent to a pitch shifting reverb on the ALM MFX. Got the electret microphone picking up the chimes going into the delay on the Koma Field Kit FX with the mix all the way up. Which is why a keen eye might notice a slight delay between the strike of the chime and the sound of it.

@@felix_ennui I had no idea that the current from a trigger signal was sufficient to drive a DC motor ! This is a surprise ! Would you happen to have an idea of the typical current intensity that can be drawn out of a CV output ? I have been searching for this information without success so far. I want to build a set of passive attenuverters for my Moog Sound Studio, but without knowing the output current (or the output impedance), I cannot determine what range of resistors I need for that. I guess I will have to do it by trial and error, otherwise.

@@felix_ennui As a side-note: I do not know which kind of protections are typically designed around CV outputs, but when driving a DC motor with a trigger signal, you may want to short the motor with a kickback diode. Otherwise, each time the motor stops, self-induction will send a reverse current into you CV output with the potential to fry something. Some machines will be more protected against that than others, but you probably do not want to discover empirically that your favourite synth was not protected against reverse current !

Thank for the tip! The manual had some examples of sending the DC motor a trigger signal so I assumed it was fine.

@@felix_ennui Then i assume they already protected the output with a diode in the core circuit. That’s good, but just be aware that it will not necessarily be true for any synth out there. These babies are expensive, you may want to look at a circuit diagram before trying the same thing with another machine. Plugging output in output on the other hand (the so-called “output to output patching technique”) seems to be pretty universally safe, from what I have seen. Keep up the exploration !

Thanks! Im interested to see how this will be received being what it is. Its kinda my favorite voicing at the moment. Usually after I create a patch I unplug and start from scratch, but it took me awhile to disconnect this one. Sooo... there should be some more little jams coming with this voicing. I just have to shoot all the visuals for them. Thanks for the comments, I'll have to check out your vids.

@@felix_ennui Every time I come up with a new patch (especially on my 2600), disconnecting everything to start again is always an emotionally loaded moment ! And indeed, just like you describe, the more interesting the new experiment, the longer it takes me to finally discard it !

Thanks Going Modular! Im pretty sure this is the patch where I figure out that trick to get more complex beats on the dfam. Shows how long it took me to bring that demo to fruition.

@@felix_ennui Sequencing the DFAM with a trigger sequencer is a great trick indeed. For a long while, I kept looking for a cheap way to do exactly that, but controllers such as Arturia's Beatstep were priced higher than I was ready to spend on that function alone. Until I found an ultra-cheap Behringer RD-6 analog drum machine that was on sale. Although I am definitely NO fan of early 80's analog drums sounds, I realised that this machine (and its likes) pack several independent trigger/gate outputs, while sporting individual audio outputs for each instrument that can easily be processed into just as many more independent triggers. For 80€, this gave me an 8-track trigger sequencer, which is way more than I will ever use ! At the same time, I almost NEVER use the drum sounds themselves, unless heavily processed to make them beefier.

The SubH can be tricky, I think it just requires a bit more time to get what you want out of it. Im currently working with the moog sound system and some eurorack fx, modulation, and utility modules. So hopefully I'll have some videos with those three coming soon.

@@felix_ennui This is pretty much the centre of my configuration too, except that I swapped the Mother for an ARP 2600 clone. I was never too thrilled by the one-oscillator architecture of the Mother (One oscillator ? Come on, this is 2023 !). The 2600, on the other side, is a beast ! Incredible to think this machine was designed in 1971 !

I did. Going for a dirty, overblown, punk rock kinda vibe on this one.

@@felix_ennui Ahh... Okay.

I kind of like the grunge feeling it gives.

Hey thanks! I still have a bit of hp to fill but I'm gonna take my time with the rest of it.

@@felix_ennui patch cables flowing like beautiful postiche strands of android hair...

As soon as I read this, I did too. Thanks for watching Steven!

Thanks Res!

Still loving the DFAM. Recently upgraded to the KeyStep Pro, so that has been getting more use with my modular stuff. The BeatStep Pro is a great sequencer also, just be sure to attenuate them gates if using with the DFAM.

does it work well with keystep pro? btw can we record to daw wit this setup? via usb or audio in?

Thanks Marti! You have some wonderful music on your channel as well.

Merci Vter!

Hey hardminder, thanks for the comment. Yes, Erica is just making the hi hat sound. What do you have plugged into the ADV / CLOCK input on the DFAM? You need some sort of gate signal to advance the sequence to its next step.

@@felix_ennui First of al I really apreciate your reply. I forgot to mention that I copied your setup at 1:37 or so. So I assumed you had drum gate 1 going in your multi to the erica and to the dfam advance. I don't have a multi nor a erica but that shouldn't matter, I sent the gate 1 drectly into ADV/Clock. Am I doing something wrong?

You should be good. The DFAM needs to be armed, if you will. Advance it to step 8 and hit RUN. Nothing should happen. Hit play on the Beatstep Pro and it should start up.

@@felix_ennui Man, honestly, before I asked you this question, I worked on this setup for 3 evenings in a row. When I say my setup is the exact same as yours that's because it is. It's really not that complicated to replicate, there are 3 wires... But somehow it's not working, I really don't understand. I'm not a noob, I.ve been playing and working with wires and mics and amps and midi and everything for 17 years. This modular thing is new though, but still...

Thanks marti!

You can just run the output of any synth or drum machine to the input of any pedal then out of the pedal to whatever you are using.
