I’m waiting for mine <3
Now you’ve had it a few weeks has your opinion of pulsar changed in any way? I Like your examples posted.
No, it’s pretty cool, lots of stuff to do, and it can have a variety of personalities. Working thru Vlad’s demos pays off in getting a hands on feel for how it operates. My primary hope was always to be able to use it as an electronic drum kit with an external controller. I just got hold of a BomeBox that I have to program to enable the P-23 to respond to MIDI velocity in the way I need it to.

BomeBox totally saves the day on this one, thanks to the fabulous advice I got in this other thread.
Nice to hear that you got it working with the bomebox. It was simple to accomplish, wasn’t it?
Relatively easy, I suppose. BomeBox is geeky, so there’s a learning curve that requires some patience. The P-23’s MIDI velocity response requires some trial and error to come up with an optimal velocity curve. Plugging in a Keystep works well enough out of the box, but for the more finely-tunable Zendrum, I’m finding that its best to have different velocity curves per module, so now you’re working with conditions and variables in BomeBox.

Badass.
Rev. B. boards of my Pulsar Buddy are back from fab, built, tested, and working!
Very quick video here:
More info now up in the Github project Wiki: https://github.com/mzero/pulsar-buddy/wiki
If you’d like to get one from the batches I’m building this month and next, or this summer, or to just stay informed: fill out this form: https://forms.gle/6PLBLpajDFj6HGya8

Does anyone get a sustained note when a module receives MIDI velocity FF=127? I thought I once read this somewhere, but now I can’t find it. My BASS module reacts like that, at least in PRC mode, and I hope that’s not a glitch. What I’d really like to do is disable that behavior if possible.
Nick Batt has his hands on one and has a quick preview here (full review to come):
Sounds amazing!

That bass sound when he turns the distortion up!
Wow.

Old autechre in a box.
I’d love one but I’ve got too much gear not being used.
Just checking between two code compilations… I dig this

Trying not to watch more videos as I’m forever waiting on the list, but this is really cool.

Oh man, that whole range of sonic possibilities is hard to resist. My wallet is fine with it not being available in numbers …

For fuck’s sake. I’d told myself I’d be ok with my DFAM and Lyra.
Why did I watch that video?!

How is this real, at 5:32 what in the world is that…
Sounds like a Transformer or something. Holy COW
