I do the same with all my make noise- I think they look SO much better monochromatic.

I don’t think the blue knobs have enough contrast. I’ve done the same.

The only Mutable knob I have that isn’t white is the top channel on Shades, which is the one I set to 10V rather than 5V.

I do have orange on all my Harvestman stuff though.

Is that 84 hp? in a Pelican (?) 1500?

that’s a good-looking system

[caelmore]

It’s one of these, which I bought as my first case nearly two years ago.

That looks quite ideal. Perfect size, too. Does it feel fairly shock-resistant, like when you’re setting it down, or loading it into what/wherever… do the rails absorb much, if any of the impact?

The monochrome does look fine on a MN system.

It’s pretty sturdy, in my experience. I travelled with it for the the first time a few months back and had an issue with the power cord coming loose from the power brick, which required removing a couple of modules to access and reconnect it. That was the only serious issue I’ve ever had with it, but I’m not the least bit surprised that it came loose considering the bumpy flights and long-distance bus rides it endured on that trip.

They also have a larger version of this case which looks like it’d be perfect for touring modular musicians or people trying to easily transport 12U worth of modules in a durable, waterproof case.

I’ve got one of those trogotronic cases too and it feels super sturdy. One concern I have with it is how the power is mounted- kind of just screwed directly onto the case. Worried if I travel by plane or train or something it could get jostled out of alignment. Amazing case though, feels like it’s half the price it should be.

Practicing a combination of modified field recordings and processing vocals and guitar. I’m the one taking the photo in the foreground from my equipment’s-eye-view, which is to say I’m neither singing nor playing the guitar.

After a brief hiatus, I picked up Teletype again. Looking forward to focusing and trying many things with this small system. The case is a Roland SYR-E84 and Teletype i2c is hooked up to Just Friends and /W.

omg this looks like heaven

A few months have past since I made this little studio setup for myself. Still enjoying it, but it’s getting a bit crowded. Especially if I’m getting a Grandmother there’s no way I can keep it this small. A good reason not to though…

[barnjazz]

hooked the tascam 4-track up to my computer and a microphone to record karaoke to tape at our first annual christmas party tonight! this is a killer party trick.

Fought with i2c cables for longer than I’m willing to admit this morning in order to complete my case I also decided I’d had enough of slouching over my system to see screens, so I bought a $10 mini artist’s easel (in metal!) to get a better angle — my neck is already happier after tonight’s session.

How are you getting audio into iPad, and are you bringing it back into the modular?

And what is that pedal?

Thanks!

[oscillateur]

The thing on the left is a Koma Kommander CV/gate controller, not a pedal.
