Thanks to @Fin25 and his realisation eurorack was killing productivity and not good for mental health I had a revaluation myself and told myself the same. Constantly looking at stuff I can’t afford expanding stuff I wasn’t using.
So bought a 40hp case and put my fav modules in and selling the rest. Back to my original plan, to put something together to use live with the opz and couldn’t be happier.
I had the monotribe a long time ago and it was quite fun! I regret selling it from time to time… And… a Biscuit! never had one but that’s appetizing!
Gullfoss is great and does magical stuff Soothe2 doesn’t. Soothe kinda does what Gullfoss’ Tame parameter does but with way more control. Definitely check out Gullfoss now while it’s on sale. I’m really liking it.
Really nice. Evolving in captivating ways.
I had a Repeater too (and I also still have my Warp Factory). I bought the Repeater when Guitar Center was blowing them out for $300. I never even ended up using it - I sold it for $1k when pricing blew up on them.
Thanks @michaeljk1963
Red Panda Raster 2 on its way to me.
Thanks for taking the time to respond. I bought Soothe2 a while back and read about Gullfoss in passing.
I specifically wanted Soothe2 as a resonance remover for hats/drums. Also for sounds with changing pitch which is almost impossible to do with normal EQ.
It worked for that purpose really well and I liked all of the control you had over what it did.
Gulfoss seemed more like magic sauce. I’ll give it a demo now though. Last time I was on a mission. This time I can just check it out for what it is.
oooh cheers!
Korg SQ-1 from @craig, intentions are synced CV modulation, will be an easy fit into my current small euro system with the clock out from the Intellijel 1U midi (can even power it from the 1U USB power module!).
Also got a brand new UA Apollo X6 arriving tomorrow…
It’s something of an investment (to say the least) but I decided to double down on the UAD workflow, it’s been working for me. It will take me from 10 inputs to 18 (plus another 2 extra hi-z), and quadruple my UAD processing capacity. Plus I’ll be able to run my OctoPre into it at 24bit/96kHz as the X6 has two ADAT inputs (the Apollo Twin only has one so I’ve been limited to 48kHz).
Intentions are to no longer have to route things through other things, have more individual Rytm outs available and some hardware send/return FX.
Nice, I really rate Red Panda. I have the particle 2 and I’m amazed at the range of sounds it spits out. One day I should try controlling it with p-locked & sequenced cc’s from the OT.
Quadra thru to stack after midi solutions merger. 2 MIDI outs wasn’t cutting it anymore.
Intention: Less (hopefully) / more (possibly) MIDI hassles
Just make sure the device you are connected to provides enough power for the Quadra Thru.
I did wonder about that but seems to work fine OT > Merger > Quadra thru, OT seems OK to power both MIDI boxes. If there are any issues I can drop the merger for now as OT is currently handling all the MIDI. But I have eyes on (and an input free for) the BCR32 when it comes out…
In the end I will probably want a Blokas Midihub, but this is a cheaper unpowered solution for now.
I’ve never had a problem using a quadra thru from an Elektron box.
Always been a bit curious about the micron, I’ve definitely heard some good sounds from it but I used to see it used for so dirt cheap it is hard to ever want to take the plunge now. Something about the controls on the top looks like it was designed as a fake synth prop for a tv show is the 90s.
Iv’e been playing on it most of the day. I paid £175 for it in pristine condition, no marks, no audio crackling etc.
Seriously some soft synths are more expensive than this and don’t even sound close to the Micron. I’m not looking forward to menu diving but I’ll sample the hell out of this from the MPCX and make patches. There’s a few on eBay now at different prices. I’m trying to grab something else tonight off of eBay if I can get another old classic back I’ll be very happy. Post here if I win 
You should definitely do it!
I use the Digitakt + Red Panda Tensor combo all the time and is a killer using p-lock to do beat repeats, tape stops and random stuffs for live performing.
Also as a little trick, if you don’t have the special midi cables you can use a small trs midi dongle with a headphone plug adapter. It works like a charm.
