I just acquired an O+C, it’s indeed quite awesome! l noticed lot’s of folks building them lately, so prices went down a bit… I paid £185 for mine freshly build and shipping included.

#22

I just acquired one too and it’s amazing, it opens many fields for my small system!
I’d clearly see a use for two… but I’m quite decided to pair it with a Batumi/Poti, keeping the O_c for pitch duties (ASR/Quantizer).

I’m not affiliated in any way but if someone is looking to buy one, i bought mine from Wilzyx on reverb.com, the build is perfect, I paid 185€ shipped to France and received it in a week :slight_smile:

I’ve got a noisering in my rack which I love, but could an O&C be a drop-in replacement for it? With the CopierMaschine app? The HP footprint is the same, seems like a straight upgrade to me.

Hi, could you please tell me how much for import? I’m in Italy I saw that Willzyx ship from Taiwan. Thanks

#25

Mine came through with zero import duty to UK. It was packaged and market up legit as well. So I was kinda surprised there.

I don’t have an answer to your question, but a hint: as awesome as all the functionality in O+C is, it’s all about menu diving.

#27

Per app there’s only one level of menu diving tho. I find it very acceptable for the functionality.

Zero import duty for me neither to France, so a pretty good deal, but maybe I’ve just been lucky ? (Wilzyx declared 75$USD as value for me, that may be the upper margin before taxes).
He gives 20$ to O_c developpers for each module sold (they confirmed it in the muffwiggler thread), so even if you have to pay import taxes it should be approximately the “common” price, maybe a bit more (~240€), but you’ll suport the work of the creators and futur firmware updates :slight_smile:

I agree there’s quite menu diving for certain apps, but it offers so much in little space!
I just discovered you can scale the LFOS in Quadraturia to turn them unipolar without external offset/attenuator, just with two menu options (gain/offset), you can also attenuate incoming CVs and save your attenuverters/offsets for other things!

you’re right, it’s more scrolling than diving as the structure is flat. I just wanted to point out the tradeoff between capabilities and accessibility, I should have been more clear. discrete modules certainly have their appeal. that’s my experience with my O+C journey.

#30

Thanks. I think I’m cool with a little menu diving, I seem to spend a lot of time taming the output of the noisering as it is. Rarely use it without attenuating it in some form.

Is there a PDF of the manual for the newest firmware? I can only seem to find 1.2 in pdf format.

I cannot find Wilzyx on reverb so far. Is it because I’m in the states perhaps? Can someone post a link?

#33

They are all gone for the moment, but I know he makes small batches from time to time, maybe just PM him there : Wilzyx O_c

I bought a temps utile & O_c from Doberand Labs. Great build quality and will negotiate the price. Paid 400 total shipped for both.

Edit: link to his Reverb store. https://reverb.com/shop/doberand-labs-audio

Ha, turns out I bought the last O_c from Wilzyx on reverb last night! Very excited to start playing with this module.

Thanks for the heads up! Strapped for cash at the moment but good to know they are back so quick. Seems like when I an afford one it will be easy to grab then.

You’re welcome @SYS2064 :wink:

Check if the firmware is up to date when you receive it, mine arrived with 1.3.2, but I just realized 1.3.3 is out, gonna update it tomorrow.

Sequins was already great being a dual channel sequencer, each with four 16 steps sequences, individual clock & clock div/mult, scales etc… but with the new firmware the gate outs can be replaced by CV-able enveloppes, so it can free up the two channels of my Maths!
They also added interesting clock divisions (x-1) to do phasing a là Steve Reich when driving two identical sequences with the same fast clock… I can’t wait to try this :slight_smile:

Damn they go quickly. Just got paid annnddd sold out.

I got most of the parts for an O_C some time ago, but then decided to take my modular in a bit of a different direction, and never got around to building it.

We’re both in Sydney (I believe), so I could finish the build and sell it to you, if you’re okay to wait a few weeks? Send me a DM if you’re interested, and we’ll figure something out.
