Your welcome, very glad if that brought back some happy memories

@zYklen @killingtime Should we just go ahead and start a Lizard-inspired thread? Here’s my contribution: https://mola-recordings.bandcamp.com/track/lizard-point

Hah I recently moved to Plymouth! I find the areas around here can be pretty inspiring too, we’ve been exploring the moors a bunch and often feel like I’m in the stone age up there… I love it around here.

some of the setups here are stunning, how good would it be if there was an exhibition where you got to see all these in the flesh somewhere.

It’s looking that way. Great to know so many people are inspired by the location.

@Petajaja nice to meet you neighbour. You’re right, Plymouth is surrounded by beautiful countryside and coastline. So many inspirational places to explore.

Looks like a nice set up to me - you need more volumes of Akira, though

I did a fun live in-studio performance/collaboration with a video artist last night. I haven’t had to pack gear for a show in months, so this is what I settled on…

Alright, I can’t take not knowing anymore. What are the wooden doohickies?

Not sure if you saw or heard, but @Justmat posted quite the clip playing some ciat stuff in this thread. Crazy crazy good stuff

In contrast to the many pictures of modular systems that actually work & function as musical instruments, I would like to present my current system:


It consists of a 1u VCA, Links, and Kinks. I felt like the modules would like to have a lot of space to swim in. Also, although this system can only produce noise (from Kinks), it does make nice red & green colors.

(This is my first modular system and I’m learning that it can take a while before modules ship from stores, especially if you buy modules from Europe. It should actually make some sounds soon! And many thanks to the fine people here; without Lines I would not have decided to take the plunge.)

Surely you mean “… especially if you live in the US”, no?

Ah yes, good point – that is true, I do live in the US. Ordering modules from Europe when you live in Europe is probably a lot easier!

That’s a Quadratt (attenuator/attenuverter/mixer) rather than a vca, so you’ll likely want to add a vca as well. Quadratts are great, though!

Hah! The past few weeks I’ve also been floor-jamming through the same IKEA speaker… :laughing:

Gorgeous synth too…

Always good to go slow with a first modular system (with any modular system, I think), otherwise you risk running out of space before the modules you’ve put in make sense as a whole, and not just on their own. Smart choice of a case. Kinks may not be much but with some self-patching you can use it to dirty up another audio signal, i.e. as an effect. Enjoy the journey =]
