I love the look of the blackhole cases! Been pondering picking one up for similar uses.

here’s the system i made for my Norns

I decided to get an intellijel 62 U for economy and i already had all the modules save for the three sis


here’s the other one. not as tweaked – just a shared sys with some weirdness but nothing insane

hows the squid treating you?

Love it, especially after running the main output through the MUM M8… instant mid 90’s vibe

Working on a patch. It seems like a good time to share my synth beast.

Looks like a really fun rig!

How are you getting on with your Ooots, particularly the saturation? I ordered one on a whim since it seemed so feature packed for the HP.

Also picked up a Blackhole Case based on your recommendation either in this thread or another, so wanted to give thanks! It was a perfect fit for my needs and was honestly the last piece I needed to solve before committing to modular. I’ll be sure to post pics once I have it all set up.

i approve deeply of this symmetry

I’m wondering the same. Thinking of selling one of my 6hp mixers and getting this just because of the saturation, but I haven’t heard anything about it part from knob.farm himself.

The saturation is subtle, but does add a nice little bit of warmth to the whole mix. The more noticeable and, I think desirable, feature is the tilt eq. It is quite useful and can really shape whatever is coming out of your modular.

I went with the Six (60hp). I was previously looking to settle on the Make Noise skiff since it was still around the HP I wanted, I just had a preference for a square shape for ergonomics. I also wanted just a touch more room, and I think the 16 I get with the Six will be enough for some added luxury while still keeping me pleasantly restricted.

I’m relieved to hear that the Ooots delivers. I found it on accident while researching their Ferry module. Ended up putting Ferry on hold and went with the ooots as that need is more immediate.

That’s great to hear. I was interested in this as a feature, but didn’t expect it would have quite as much of an impact on the final sound.

That was the main drawback in my eyes. I justified it since it’s a smaller case and should handle my planned modules. It will only be half full for the foreseeable future while I learn my initial modules, so I have time to see how the floating cables do. I can always swap them for a board before I fill it up if I notice issues. I’ll let you know how it goes once I get some time with it.

A while ago I had planned out my dream system and it ended up being exactly 72 hp 6U. I had an IKEA Rast rack and ended up cutting it down from 84 Hp and got some 72 hp rails from Erthanvar (rip). Somehow 72 just feels like the perfect size!


I borrowed an Doepfer LC-9 case from my friend and I can finally have all my modules in one case (except OD ER-101 and ER-102 as I managed to almost max PSU2 without anything in 3rd row).

From a live performance recently.
Almost full now, which feels like a relief. Last things to get will probably be a LEDRover and a Tete (when it comes out).

Beast-Tek Amoeba high five! Curious how you use yours. I use mine in concert with a Trigger Riot to add unpredictable and interesting drum hits to my drum lines.

I got it specifically to trigger the 8 inputs on the Squid Salmple which results in instant drum machine action… haven’t had it too long so still experimenting with all the different beat patterns, haven’t delved too far into its crazy side yet

Hey, here is something new!


And better with sound!
