The offset is applied after attenuation.

I love the new layout émilie.
It’s the kind of thing that makes my brain happy.

does anyone have opinions about using blinds as a vca/mixer thing ? I like the added possibilities on top of what veils has + don’t feel like I would mind a bit of interface weirdness in that use case, assuming it’s workable

#274

I don’t have experience with blinds but the large amount of gain veils allows by turning towards exponential mode…I personally find this indispensable because I do a lot of modular with other stuff kind of work. I also like being able to shape how an envelope responds with that knob to get the feel right.

99% of the time I use quadratts for attenuversion (shades/triatt are basically the same in 3u) and control voltage mixing and scaling, and then veils for audio purposes I find this works really well for me.

same here probably - but I’ll have a couple preamps in the case - so - maybe I’ll live. easy to switch out if ye mind changes later on (& I think envelope shapes can happen earlier down the chain for the most part)

Yep definitely. I do enjoy having control at both points…but it’s not necessary

Yarns seems to be discontinued now. Might be one of the 2 with a new name? :frowning:

#278

Very interesting. Makes me wonder if one of the larger things is Yarns reimagined as a sequencer with MIDI integration. I’ve always wondered what a Mutable take on sequencing would be like…

Seems like Emilie already gave a answer
Quote: “Yarns was discontinued because of low sales number. If I had another batch manufactured, it would take 2 years for this batch to be sold.”

Still use my yarns everyday but yeah i get it why it’s not sold that much anymore

#280

That makes sense. Yarns was one of the first MIDI converters and many, many have followed. I can imagine it’s difficult to get folks excited about something in 12 hp when there are so many slimmer (and usb compatible) options.

#281

I’ve been using it a lot as just that. The only downside I could find for myself was that it needed a bit of care to dial in the zero value, but nothing one can’t manage.
I of course find the new Veils much better for that, because the fader layout does work very nicely if you use it as a VCA/mixer combo. Which is also one of the reasons we did consider this kind of layout in the first place.

so my braids suddenly sounds atrocious. every setting is just tiny distorted bursts of static and tiny short noises almost resembling what i would expect to come out. it is like the sustain has been globally turned down to .001 ms or something. anyone know what i did to get to this state?

#283

Braids has an internal AD envelope, I’m not sure how it works, but it might be what’s causing your issue?

interesting. i’ll investigate…

Whenever I’ve had issues with modules, especially digital modules, it’s been tied to some change I’ve made in my rack. Adding a new module, moving a module and messing up the power header, etc.

#286

do you recommend unplugging and replugging the power? feels like magic!

#287

Likely: very low pitch/transposition setting, resolution set to 1BIT or sample rate set to a very low value, or an actually dead DAC…

A video or audio recording would help.

#288

Not unless you’ve changed your rack recently, no I’d just leave it alone.

I know this isn’t helpful but this genuinely sounds pretty cool to me. Can’t help but wonder what it’d sound like through the QPAS, maybe with a smidge of reverb…
