Sounds great! I’ve been enjoying self-patching fm as you have here at very low frequencies. Odd, rubbery sounds. HO was one of my first modules and I continue to discover new things to love about it.

I just got one of these in the mail yesterday.

I was on the fence about this vs Just Friends, as I saw in the JF technical maps that you can work with the first six harmonics, and particularly as I’ve already got a Crow there was an appeal in expanding my ii ecosystem.

But right now I’ve ended up with this strange case with tons of modulators and my only sound source being the ER-301. And so I thought something both analog and extremely hands-on might be a good complement to that.

Maybe it will just be a matter of time until I pick up the JF as well, and then it won’t be forced into purely working as a sound source?

Really cool use and I don’t know why I haven’t played with that myself yet (FMing the individual harmonic outputs back into the oscillator)! BTW, where did you get the black pot covers? Thinking about making the rest of my system match the Verbos look.

I’ve been lusting for a Harmonic osc for quite some time now. I got in contact with a guy that wants ti trade one plus the Amp & Tone controller for my Moog Grandmother. Would you do it? I don’t know what to do… I barely use the GM.

It’s such a magical combo

Could go for a Harmonic + Scan & Pan combo too from the same guy. Tough one

I have all the verbos stuff. HO and ATC are my favorites.

Those two seems to be a perfect couple. I’ll see how it goes. The seller wants the trade to be face to face on Christmas eve and I’m out of town :thinking:

Have you seen the new oscillator on Modular Grid? Interested in the concept behind that one, or if it’s more for saving HP in mobile systems

#27

To me it looks more like half of Complex oscillator. I bet it’s going to sound really nice

I already have Stages; what can the Verbos do that Stages can’t? I’ve been hesitant to try any Verbos modules due to the high prices and poor reputation of the company re QC and customer service.

Verbos can do harmonic scanning under CV control. The lower block of knobs is the functionality not present in stages.
Oh, and FM.
Stages can tune partials and individually switch waveshapes though.
That said, I’ve been choosing between Cs-l and HO a couple of month ago, after demoing both at Schneidersladen. Went with Cs-l, but can not forget the sound of HO ever since. So I’m going to pick up HO as a holiday gift for myself :slight_smile:

After some readings, conclusions are :

  • People who sold it have regrets
  • People who have it, keep it.

I tried to forgive it but like kveye, I think I will make me a personal gift too :slight_smile:

I sold my HO, but I miss it. I actually picked up the CS-L. I think the CS-L is way more versatile. I’m committed to a smaller system so the HO is not something I’d buy again with a small system but if I ever expanded I’d def pick one up again, it’s got such a unique voice,

Yeah, versatility was the reason to pick up CS-L for me too. I just kept thinking about HO so I guess I have to get it scratch that itch.

That was the same for me, I really thought I wanted the HO but after I few weeks I realized it was more of a novelty for the size. The coolness wore off after a little bit. Also the when you use the scan functions it forces the vcas on board to overdrive in a way that I don’t think is always that pleasing. But there is really nothing else that sounds like it, it’s like a owning a Rickenbacker 12-string guitar; it’s sound is so distinct that you can’t get it with anything else but you can help not sounding like the Byrds when you use it.

Updating myself: All three (Harmonic Osc, Amp & Tone controller AND the Scan & Pan) are coming this way in just a couple o days. Can’t wait :smile:

Plucking, sweeping, self FMing, and manually controlling interval faders. The more choking and popping the better.

Verbos very much! Instant love and I don’t regret the trade at all.
