whats ur guys opinions on the paper circuits of fourses? worth building rather than just using the eurorack module?

I’ll be having some Tarpterge’s printed soon. -


I’ll eventually finish the full set up that I started a while back - I want to test the modifications (4 SPDT switches) that I did on the board. :slight_smile:
It’s set up for 4mm bullet connectors just like meng qi rollz-5 - so it will be an open faced circuit with stand offs.

(Listener box is another work in progress :wink: )

The paper circuit is far more capable if you build the full thing (arpserege + tarpterge + intersexon). It’s fairly close I think if you just build the tarp.

Cut out the paper circuits for fourses! Probably gonna sit on the shelf for a while, but I’ll have them ready when the time comes :slight_smile:

I ordered a 4ms Listen IO the other day in order to use my Coco or Fates as part of my Eurorack. Like the idea of being able to send stuff from the modular to the device and back in to the modular.

Just read this wonderful article from Peter about the Din Datin Dudero philosophy and history. Highly recommend!

Ok so I’ve been thinking about what the article said about parallel power supplies using MOSFETS and a chopper supply for ground. How would I do something like that to power two speakers + the lil sidrassi amp circuit as well as my normal dogslit boards? I’m using @crucFX PSU board for the 12v > 9v in.

Look through some of the Fourses and Fyrall papers.

That was a really nice read. Would never have even considered using the yellow Coco output to clock the PB! Would have assumed it was way too fast. Gotta try that out for sure!

I’ve been working on a version of it - but its one of those things idk if i’ll ever have printed because there is so little info on it -_- lol
If someone knows which Varacitor Diodes are needed… lol
Same with Trimin - i dont know shit about AM radio transmitters - so it’s the only reason I havent ran those. lol

I say breadboard it! Test out different varacitor diodes and see which ones are best

Hey everyone. This thread has been a fun read and I wanted to share that today I received my Tetrax—my first CL instrument. It wasn’t my first choice, but one popped up on Reverb with bananas, power adaptor, and plugs with the Landscape touch pads, so I jumped at it.

I’ve just spent 30 minutes with it after unpacking, mostly unpatched, and it sounds delightful with a ton of timbres available at just the knobs only. This is my first entry into banana land and I’m curious about the size difference in pins between the cables I received and the plugs. Below is a picture for reference. The cables go in and come out easily enough, but it took some effort to seat a plug and getting it out was difficult… I’m concerned about damaging the jacks, so can anyone let me know if these are indeed different sizes?

Follow-up question for those who have played with the Landscape touch plates: I inserted a single plug into a master glitch jack and nothing happened when I touched it… any guidance on how to use these? Thanks!

Different manufactures will have slightly different fitment. I find that new Pomonas are tight until I use them a bit.

Thanks for responding. To confirm my understanding, you’re saying that these are the same size and the implication is that the plugs are Pomonas (which I’ve read about being tight) and just to handle with care until they break in?
