I’m using this cheap Palmer DI with the tocantes and CL stuff in general: https://www.thomann.de/de/palmer_pan_04.htm

:+1: Hey thanks for the link, I’ll check it out.

…on the subject of recommendations — I’m waiting on a Crank Multi Plunk!

I’ve had a Plumbutter for a few weeks and the lack of v/8 tracking in my life reminded me of this post mentioning IFM stuff and the Teletype. Despite being a subversion of the intention of PB by “normalizing” it, would the TT theoretically be able to make an AVDog in Trad mode properly sing Do-Re-Mi or whathaveyou if one figured out the right voltages? It’s probably nonsensical and not worth the effort, I’m just curious.

#434

Although I’ve lusted after a Plumbutter I’m not particularly up on its various sections and functionality. From the TT side, yes you can generate quantized CV but that wouldn’t be helpful because the Plumbutter is banana? not sure what voltages it expects… Hainbach generated some Plumbutter samples and noted that although he’d tried to get A 440hz, the Plumbutter drifted because that is in its nature. My guess is trying to tame PB is probably futile

#435

The different formats shouldn’t be an issue- you’d just need a converter box or module that includes a shared ground between the banana and Euro system from what I understand. E.g. Meng Qi’s Brass or Make Noise’s long discontinued Format Jumbler are Euro modules that do this. As far as expected voltages, the Deerhorn (theremin) section of PB puts out 0 to +10v from its CV output according to someone who scoped it on MW, so I don’t think there’d be a problem there either. You (and Hainbach) are certainly right though that it’s a matter of PB wanting to cooperate, but I thought maybe the precise CV you could get out of TT might make this silliness possible.

#436

Any pitch CV should be precise enough to check I guess - I’m keen to know too as Plumbutter is very much on my radar and its ability to play with friends matters

Does anyone have some simple demo audio of Denum and Dunst? I had my eye on them for a while but forgot about it when Blasser stopped selling them individually, but a friend is heading to NY next week and they’re both in stock at CTRL…

#438

If no one else comes through, that gives me something to do tonight playing with the camera I got pretty explicitly to make modular videos with and my small IFM case.

Denum is in my opinion the least haunted of the 5 :slight_smile: easiest to understand.

#439

I made a Denum video last night. Downloaded Adobe Premiere and am learning to do basic text overlay this morning so I can add captions. Will put up on YouTube later, and then start exploring Dunst.

I used to have a Dunst and this soundcloud clip below helped me understand it a little bit before I bought one:

What’s your YouTube URL?

Finally ordered a Swoop. I look forward to participating here, beyond reading/listening.

Swoop and Mr Grassi are the only IFM modules that survived the purge of 2018 for me. Grassi is amazing and may one day render my benjolin obsolete

Hey this was fun to make!

I’ll add links to sections in the YouTube description for people who don’t have the patience for a 20 minute video, which I suspect is many folks.

Very cool. I paused before the jam begins. (And I have never really looked at my hands.) I’ll get back to that in a little while.

Could you, uh, maybe do one focused on the Swoop next?

Was going to do Dunst next because of @philmaguire but this is making me really sit back down with the IFM set I built a few weeks back (Peter B workshop in San Francisco) and get to know them, so Swoop is on the agenda.

Super. I was thinking about doing that workshop. Did you shoot any video during it?

I look forward to whatever you focus on next.

#448

(I also need to like actually plan these things and edit them. But hey, this is better than the cell phone videos I’ve been taking.)

I thought it was great. I think editing helps, but in many ways saying “I shoulda edited this” kinda does the job for you. The only feedback I’d have is you could leave the captions a little longer, maybe. What did you shoot it with?

#450

Very little…I was focused on building the modules and a Tocante Zenert. Peter pre-soldered all the boards for us so we were only doing pots & jacks & switches, but on 8 modules that’s still a lot for me.

This is what I posted from that day:
