So a DAW then, or a piano?
one of my friends has one and it was fun and interesting but with all the gear I have, not a must buy.

Focal Shape Twins, got a pair on Friday. Breaking them in this week. So far first impressions are great. A few more days of letting them go with a playlist at mid volume and weāll see where weāre at.

Ha, I wish I had room for a piano. Currently Iām using Push 3 (which replaced an MPC Iāve had a few years) and Elektrons for sequencing. Or, on rare occasions, sequencing from Ableton.

Bought a Korg SQ-1 to pair up with my Moog semi-modulars. I wanted to use it to do some cool modular-style sequencing by separating pitch & gate. It can also sequence VCF and VCA levels, play the DFAM as a melodic synth, or just using it as 2-output MIDI>CV interface. All these extra utilities will keep from going Eurorack for an extraā¦week, maybe, two? The sequencer itself is simple, but tons of fun, and very good for jamming. Iāve already recorded a bunch of little demos with it:

Sometimes simple, good clean fun is the best fun one can have.

lmao this is me right now. I just wish I could run the m32 sequencer clock to keep the dfam in sync with digitaktā¦ without it spitting out notes lol but to solve this my brain keeps saying get a euro case and some modules itll solve the problems and ones i donāt even know about yet haha
Itās finally happened!
Intentions were drums. That went out the window within 5 minutes. This thing is a droning noise masterpiece. So now intentions are to just go with flow and see what happens.
3rd Day Edit: it drums real good too. And Iām saying that as someone more into hip-hop than techno.

I donāt know about an SQ1 for that, since it only does MIDI over USB, but you might also have luck using Rolandās Aira boxes as a cheap MIDI-CV bridge for DFAM. Used ones are like $150 US and theyāre battery powered.
I mostly meant āwill current system keep me from buying a caseā, because it is inevitable and Iām just saving money right now
Iāve got elektron sequencers for the m32/DFAM combo, which isā¦ holding me over for the time being haha
M2 and currently Iām using it with Drambo as the main DAW with a ton of Audio Units, pretty much everything Iāve been able to get my hands on so far, MiRack, Moog model D, Moog Model 15 modular, Korg Polysix, Aruria SEM, Sunrizer, Waldorf Nave, Sugarbytes Factory, Sugarbytes Drumcomputer, koala sample, Audulus 3, Elastic drums, Pure Acid, DefleMask, Nanoloop, DRC, Troublemaker, Voxel, Ruismaker FM, Ripplemaker, Skiid, Seekbeats, Synthone, EGDR909. Chowkick, Animoog, Fluxmini 2,Dubstation 2, Rough rider 3, Electric FX, Viking synth, LRC7, DLYM, PCM12, LRC5, Tape Cassette 2, Fabfilter Saturn, Fabfilter twin 2, Fabfilter Timeless 2 and probably some other stuff I canāt think of at the moment.
Lots and lots of fun and very capable tools available for iOS these days. Id like to find a synth closer to the Virusā¦something like Serum would be ideal. Other than that I also bough Korg Gadget though I regret itā¦Although one could make music with Gadget itās just too toy like for me, way to limited, I wish I had spent that $40 on more Fabfilter plugins like their Reverb and Compressor.
I plan on grabbing those in the future along with the Eventide effects.

I think after many many years I have found my favourite sampler and groovebox. This thing is so much fun and after just a few days Iām hooked.
Octatrack came close to being my fav sampler but the deluge is excellent in so many ways.
I always sell on anything I replace but think Iāll use the Octatrack as mixer and fx box until the honeymoon period is over
