I saw them post this on Instagram and thought it was a very cool thing that they are doing.

Thanks for sharing that. That is very kind of them! I love Falistri and appreciate the design 333 even though I don’t have one yet. What a cool group!

My next step is to get an effect module. I have none currently and I was planning on getting a Mimeophon first but an Erbe Verb has popped up in the local market and… well, I love the sound of an Erbe Verb.

My question is, has anyone had any noise issues? I’ve read on MW that Erbe Verbs with blue knobs of serial #4492 and lower were particularly noisy, but apparently a FW update solved most of it.
I don’t mind a not-so-low noise floor. I’m more concerned with unexpected bursts of noise.
I’ve read that some users experienced “crackling” noise issues related to faulty knobs. Has anyone had to replace a knob and is this a difficult task? (it won’t be a possibility to ship the module to Make Noise).

Other than that, any opinions on the module are welcome.

got a new erbe-verb (all white knobs) two weeks ago and have really fallen in love with it- after years of not really connecting with ableton reverbs and the valhalla plugins.

it definitely has a ‘sound’ but that sound is so alive and malleable. working with it has given me more physical reactions to whatever I’m working on than I’m used to (goosebumps, feelings of bliss, fear) which has been cool too.

no issues with noise and definitely recommended :slight_smile:

Yes, I got the Valhalla bundle last year and it’s wonderful. But I like the Erbe not so much as an end-of-chain reverb but as sound source or to model other synth sounds in the system. It’s by far the module I listened the most demos of. Lovely sounds.
I’m waiting for confirmation on the exact model, but I guess I’ll give it a go.

I misread this at first. I find Ableton uninspiring for composing and jamming in contrast with hardware. But a daw and a few plugins do provide a great deal of versatility for editing and mixing what was first recorded from eurorack or other synths.

Looking for advice on what’s the simplest way to introduce monitors to modular setup and have the ability for stereo recording of same monitored audio?
Not exactly looking for module advice, since i have 4ms listen alteady. I just don’t want to use headphones all the time :slight_smile:

Forgive me if im just reading your question wrong, but almost any stereo audio interface will have direct monitor outputs for this very purpose. Typically you’ll also have at least one separate headphone output, often more, and another pair of line outs that can be used for whatever you’d like. There are smaller interfaces that may only record over the usb connection but I have never personally owned one that couldn’t do what you’re looking for. Hope that helps!

I want to avoid using computer. This one i forgot to mention.

#1026

Sounds like a mixer with a direct recording capability might be what you’re looking for.

So for example (I’m sure there may be cheaper options).

#1027

Ahh got it, sorry about that. Probably the most direct way would be a portable recorder, then run the line out to monitors. Since you already have an output module/mixer you can get away with something pretty basic, unless you need multiple stereo channels.

#1028

Something like a Zoom H6 portable recorder has line outs, which can be sent to your monitors.

I use this in my Tiny Studio Corner. Recorder, mixer and interface when I want to involve the laptop for recording or streaming.

What current suggestions do people have for sequencing and pushing out multiple envelopes. maybe 4 or 6 or 8 channels. I like the doepfler quad asdr but its really wide though good s/h value, the intellijel quadra looks ok too. but i’m not sure of the best system for triggering these either.

Maybe one or two mutable Instruments Stages. One can provide 3 AD envelopes or 6 decay envelopes or tempo synced LFOs with selectable clock divisions.

Quadrax and Zadar are two EGs I’ve been enjoying lately. Sequence with teletype or ansible (+ grid). So many possibilities.

thanks @Jay and @EqualTemperament. how many voices can one control with ansible or TT (I have a grid and Norns) looks like 4 cv envelopes and 4 triggers but im not sure what the limitations are in practice. like the idea of storing sequences though.

#1034

A simplified answer: both teletype and ansible have 4 channels of gate and cv outputs. They can both store sequences.

The actual answer is less simple than that, and depends on how you use them. For example there are scenarios where you could use the cv outs to control gates/triggers as well, so you could control 8 voices of triggers/gates only with either device. Or if you connect ansible and teletype together over the i2c bus, you can use ansible as a teletype expander and control 8 voices of cv and gates with teletype.

teletype can store 32 scenes which each include 4x64 patterns. ansible can (for example with kria, which is one of 3 grid apps for ansible) store 8 scenes of 16 x 16 length patterns in flash memory. With either, though, if you’re willing to backup/restore to a USB drive the storage is really pretty much unlimited.

Those are just some examples - they are pretty deep devices.

I was looking for a quad envelope while back and ended up getting the Mutable Stages and a Xaoc Zadar. I like both a lot, but end up preferring the Zadar for more traditional synth voices. On the flip side, Stages is a lot more versatile and even makes for an interesting oscillator.

Stages does look very cool and versatile! Just for the sake of info sharing, Zadar and Quadrax can act as V/Oct tracking VCOs as well. It’s amazing how versatile some of the current gen digital eurorack modules are.

Can anyone tell me of a sequencer with which you can push and pull individual track sequences with, ie an LFO?
