sure, well, to my best recollection (as i already ripped it all out):

the main things it was doing was controlling morph, gene size and slide on the morphagene, either stop or start point on the modcan cv record (can’t remember which) which is that lower pinging tones you hear, a bunch of vcas opening in various weird ways, and i think crossfade on cold mac…and maybe the blend control on clouds…thats seems right.

the secondary use was modulating the frequency of the 3 batumi random waves and the ‘both’ control on the maths envelope that are feeding splosh in the first place…so its basically a giant modulation feedback loop that would take two seemingly boring sine wave noodles caught in two loopers more interesting (to me anyway)

Sloths is now available in 1U format (both PulpLogic & Intellijel!) — 3 different circuits (Torpor, Inertia, Apathy). Looks handy!

I love the Sloth circuit. This new one looks like a good addition to 1u, even integrating the CV input from the Sloths module. I still want a version with a built in +/- rectifier.

I’m also excited to see useful smaller hp items in Intellijel 1U. I’m going to move to an Intellijel case soon, and one thing that I’m thinking about is the relative lack of useful low hp modules. I prefer not to have blanks if I can help it.

Sounds like Andrew NLC has a few different 1Us planned (via MW): “Probably neuron (different one), difference rectifier & Bong0 will be along soon and maybe a bit more chaos.” @grey maybe you can get your 1U rectification soon (albeit not built in)

+1 on the built in +/- rectification. add in built in attenuverters and i’d be in heaven

this is awesome news. would love a full NLC 1u row. Just ordered 3 sets of sloth pcb/panels for each speed

Love my Timbre & Timbre. I noticed something I hadn’t noticed before yesterday. With nothing patched into the CV input. The Pot seems to alter the wave shape. I also notices the two sides don’t seem closely matched. Anyone have this experience?

#236

anyone have an all-nlc system? we know about the NULL-A2, but wondering if anyone here either has that + augmented w/ other nlc function blocks, or either an individual ad hoc system from selected modules. strongly considering going in the latter direction, but maintaining relative parsimony, e.g. 60hp or less.

please feel free to detail the system, its versatility/limitations, etc.

Anybody here use the Statues? How do you use it in your patch? I’m really confused on how this module works.

Torpor

For people who have the Sloth[s] module, what type would you recommend if I only got one ?
Torpor (15-20 second orbits), Apathy (1-3 minute orbits) or Inertia (15-20 minute orbits) ?

I’m tempted to get an 1U version and I think the Apathy one might be the best fit for me but I’d be interested in opinions of people who have these… How do you use them and what type works better for you, etc. ?

Thanks in advance.

Why not all 3?? Triple sloth is awesome! I use inertia and torpor the most.

I had a Torpor in my rack and then picked up the Triple Sloth. They’re all useful in difference scenarios but if I had to choose one it would probably be Apathy. Torpor is the most “noticeable”, I guess? Kind of like a randomized LFO. Interia is really great but depending on the patch might not be of much use.

The Triple Sloth I feel is greater than the sum of its parts with the combined outputs.

Another new observation. When I have something like an LFO patched into CV 1 it also affects anything patched to input 2. Is this normal operation?

#243

I believe that is by design. They can be broken up by patching a dummy cable into the 2nd channel cv input. Or a different lfo or whatever.

#244

Indeed! Andrew answered me an explained.

The CV pots affect the folding, whether or not you have a CV signal patched in.

In most circuits, the signals from the Timbre pot and the CV pot would go to an op amp input and would be unable to noticeably affect each other, but this is a Buchla based design and the CV pot acts as a voltage divider with the voltage coming from the Timbre pot.

CV1 is fed to the switching pin of the CV2 jack; turn the CV2 pot down to zero or patch something into the jack, if you don’t want that to happen.

I have the good fortune of being able to attend Andrew’s monthly workshops and have been attending for around two and a half years. It’s been a really affordable entry point into eurorack for me. I haven’t yet been willing to drop the required money for other modules just yet, although it is definitely in my future.
Sometimes I perform out with just the lower case. I’m currently using it in a live dub band, so mostly for the odd bleepy bloopy flourish or siren type sound, however I also process a split of the snare drum through the Big Room, Delay No More and Digital Filter Simulator.
As a noise box it is great fun but without any non-NLC modules to supplement, it can be quite difficult to tame for more melodic work. I’m often wishing for things that Andrew hasn’t or doesn’t seem likely to address (quantizers for instance). Using external sequencers seems to be a good work around for the moment.
It’s certainly got it’s own charm. Even down to it’s own very specific build errors or problems that are constant works in progress due to it’s completely DIY nature. :slight_smile:

has anyone messed with Feague? I really like the concept(QLFO + filter) and the 2 videos he’s posted sound cool, but I’d really just like to hear some filter sweeps on it. I know as a filter it outputs 2 LPF and 2 BPF, are they identical? or is the phase different from each or something?

I’m building one here as soon as my parts arrive anyway but just curious if anyone has thoughts on it
