this makes me think we need to do a custom grid with a usb port out of the top left, like the old original 128… uhm.

That particular cable maker doesn’t offer it, but I wonder if they make right angle mini usb connectors. RME has a pretty cool usb b for their babyface pro:

My new case for the main system arrived. Gotta love Grau Modular.

They do. I have a variety, left, right, up, down. Watch out though, they’re all called “right angle” and you need to carefully check WHICH angle…

Is that like 20hp you allotted for it there?

I think it’s 21hp, actually.

Gheez that first picture had me drooling. Is it a complete instrument to you? It looks like it would be so much fun!

Thanks so much @stripes, just picked this up from the post office this morning :slight_smile: Getting closer to my ideal tactile, playable system. I also now have 2 × Maths :heart:

Not sure what you are using for a sequencer but push paired with this is amazing!

i assume you mean the top one - it is! insanely powerful. it’s a slightly different set up now - i moved er-301 to a bigger case and added a telexo used as a sound source and more modules for sound shaping (including roland 521 filter which is great with just friends as it has 2 3 channel mixers, great for mixing individual outs, although i find the useful range on the faders to be a bit too small)


Started re/dearranging things to use some of my old rack mount gear and have everything set up for playing & recording without too much messing about plugging stuff in every time

You beat me to buying the Brains / Pressure Points combo from Emily. Oh well. Listening to Undulations right now, so at least I know they’ll be put to good use.

I was surprised that the bargain priced PP + Brains and Maths weren’t snatched up sooner! Haven’t been able to put them in my case yet as it’s patched up for a performance next week :tired_face:

Thanks for listening :heart:

Just picked up a Mangrove and have finally been taking the time to learn how to use my Grid + Ansible that I’ve had for a few months but been too intimidated / overwhelmed to dive into - what a beautiful surprise to find how easy/fun/intuitive it is to use, and how many lovely sounds there are to be found in the Mangrove :slight_smile:

Shared a table yesterday with a friend while playing a gig. His modular definitely stole a spotlight from my A4 and laptop with Ableton :smiley:
