Or use some wood staples to prevent further splitting and get a cool Frankenstein aesthetic.

I think this calls for the Golden Repair if anything…?
To be honest it took me a second to even realize the crack was there haha.

Me neither…I had to watch an older video just to make sure it wasnt there before

I totally forgot to take a pic of mine, but its in almost the same spot, however, mine runs from top to bottom lolol
Does anyone know of a video walk through of the intersection/sample and hold features of the DH or can someone break it down for me?
I’ve read the description several times, but I’m still not getting it.
Are they all outputs?
I tend to use oranges mostly to trigger rather than hand gestures. Do the intersections work in this situation?
I’m enjoying my time with it, but I feel like I’m really underutilizing it.

wish I could answer you but dont own one 
Heres a neat trick that triangle posted a while back.
take a gander at his channel for sure.

Well of course I should have looked into triangle’s videos
Never necessarily an explanation, but fabulous tricks that you can reverse engineer and get some insight into

have you taken a look at this manual?

Thanks - I could have been more clear in the original post. That’s what I’ve read over and over and it doesn’t make sense to me.
I’ll watch the triangle video tomorrow with my DH and try it out. Will probably make some sense then

here’s an excellent starter vid:

Yes, but… well, glad I watched it again.
So are they duplicate outs on each intersection? I know each pairing has one for each of the gestures, but is the left side the same as the right side?
Is it just gestural CV outs from the various horns? And if that’s all it is, why not use the red outs of each deerhorn? And how does the S&H work? Which horn is it sampling?
EDIT: ok, I think I’m getting some of it. If those are gestural CV outs, then that’s different from the normal horn red outs, which seem to be just on or off. Still wondering if the intersections are just duplicates of one another.
And wow, the DH is heavy! Compared with toting the Sidrax and Plumbutter the previous week, it seems like the DH adds at least twice the weight of the sidrax to my backpack.

Best as I understand, the intersection jacks are all outputs of s/h where one Deerhorn’s pulses trigger a sample taken from another Deerhorn antenna’s gesture cv. Except the Greys are sampling from some random voltage source, I guess.
What really helped things click for me was understanding that each Deerhorn has 2 antenna, the upper and lower. Those brass screws are antenna connection points, fun to experiment there too. But the gesture cv output, assuming antenna tuning knob set good, when you play one of the antenna you will see a voltage at the orange gesture jack which starts round 4v and goes up to about 7v, while the other antenna covers 4v down to 1v. 4v is roughly mido on cl, but with Deerhorn the antenna tuning knob actually also sets/determine this “resting voltage” for the cv output! So tuning strategies for Deerhorn can take on a new dimension. Also these pulses used are also available at the red jacks of the Deerhorn’s.
Maybe this video helps, it shows Yellow being triggered by a roll. Easier for a roll to play the Deerhorn while one of my hands are holding my phone to record video. So you can see the lights of the Yellow changing at the rate of the roll. Let’s call these our clocks for the s/h. The data for the s/h come from, playing the other antenna’s. Whatever voltage the gesture cv is at when the trigger happens is held and available at the corresponding intersexon jack, until the next trigger and on and on.
So it’s important to get antenna tuning knob set where you want, and also consider that playing only one antenna will result in a small window of voltages at the s/h outputs.
End of the video I show monitoring the gesture out while tuning adjustments and how it effects the results.
Hope that helps!

yes…
it’s three duplicate Deerhorns.
well yes…they are all gestural…but with all the Ciat-Lonbarde noiz weaponry…most people…well…at least me…don’t know what they are doing unless it’s someone like @crucFX who literally knows how to build the things! 
It’s all about just experimenting and discovery.
anything can patch anything.
stuff only gets dangerous when swimming in the Plumbutter pool or using Rollzers.

Thanks for the detailed instruction! I think it helped me understand what’s going on and in theory, it should have worked with what I set up, but I don’t know why it didn’t.
I was trying to get the pitch of the yellow deerhorn to change with the gestures of the red deerhorn. Maybe my FM knob needed to be turned more in either direction.
What do you think?

It would probably be easier to get a feel for it with a droning oscillator (I.e. monitoring a Cocoquantus orange/organ red/etc) than with the Deerhorns modulating each other in addition to their own VCA’s. Less moving parts.

I think you have the right idea. I agree it would be easier to modulate some steady tone like ceedotgeedot. I might just focus on the lower antenna first to find your way. Have fun!

Thank you both for your input!
When you say lower antenna, that could be any of them, just when you’re gesturing the one closest to you? If we’re talking about the red DH, would that be the red on the right or left coming out of the intersections?
