The first step is to select the source port, let's say PC Output Port MRCC3 is connected to the DAW, we would press and hold the left PC Port button and while it's pressed we would press the button under DIN Out 3, (The left button selects the source ports and the right is for destinations), the led on that port will light up, then we let go of the buttons. Now we've selected the source, we can route it to any destinations: press the button below any DIN Out ports that we want that sent to for hardware synths. To send to USB you select the right button on any of the host ports, or to send to another virtual PC Port, press and hold the right PC button and pick the destination virtual port with the buttons under the DIN Output ports. Important to know is that you may only ever pick one port as a source, (selecting another will supersede previous selections) , but you may select more than one destination for a particular source.

Thanks for the explanation! @@flaminggarlic

Turned out to be a bad MIDI cable...@@flaminggarlic

Thanks, heres what I think I did here: after bypassing the decoupling cap on the suboctave output (soldered a wire across the leads of the capacitor, had to take the panel off), I had to run the signal through an inverter (the mixing circuit uses an inverting mixer to sum the 4 divided signals so it comes out upside down and needed to be flipped to make the signal positive) then I just ran the cv into the V/O input of an oscillator (akemies Taiko) and I think I used an lfo as the input to the wavefolder to get a pattern out, but I cant remember which. This idea came to me while I was looking at the module in my local shop a couple years ago. I started thinking about how mixing square waves gives you a steppy voltage output with 90 degree angles (lots of jumps to voltage levels that then stay flat at that voltage until the next jump) and thought to myself "this would be a sequencer if you slow it down enough". I thought about it for a while, but after doing a bunch of digging I found out that the module's divided output is AC coupled meaning that there is a capacitor in the signal path that prevents the signal from holding it's voltage for long, so instead of steady voltages on the output it would make a peak and then go back down to zero, which wouldn't work for a sequencer. I decided not to get one. About a year later I found one for cheap on craigslist and bought it just for this experiment. I got it home and cracked it open, and within a few minutes I had bypassed the decoupling capacitor and got to patching. The inverted output was initially really disheartening, but I remembered I had a WMD toolbox which has an inverter in it (I could have also used Maths' middle channels now that I think of it) which saved the day. In between the time I thought of this and the time I found the module used, I had been thinking a lot about this concept and eventually it led me to the development of my sequencer Aristotle, which operates on similar principals.

@@jessejohannesen6149 thank you !

The noodler is amazing! For the note lengths there is a screen to edit the rythyms and it takes a little getting used to but it's actually set up really well. You can set the number of notes in a cycle (so like 16 would a simple place to start, but you could do something else and get polyrhythms), then you can turn notes on, set the velocity, add rests and finally tie notes together. You can then save that to a rhythm slot and do some more, then during playback you can modulate which rythym is playing with an lfo if you want some variation/generative composition elements.

A lot of techno comes from setting up two loops at different lengths over a repetitive beat, which is really easy with the NDLR.

@@flaminggarlic thanks. I think about it.

Yep, the FM is a great little synth so I usually buy one if I see it for cheap, so I occasionally have a few around. I love fm synthesis and the Volca does a pretty decent job of making it easy to dial in sounds and edit stuff, that and the arpeggiator make it really very fun to use.

you should see the modular spaghetti!
