    even if this is old, its nice to see hainbach review something i can actually buy instead of dreaming of such

    Your vocal impersonation of a twisted cassette tape is the best I've ever heard. Excellent.

    I'm really enjoying your videos, decided to sell a couple of synths to buy a Field Kit - I'm fascinated by the idea of making ambient soundscapes from unexpected sources.

    Can't wait for it to be released! KOMA is way ahead of the game, Field Kit itself was just a marvel and FX seems to take it even further. We live in a wonderful time where more and more instrument-makers are taking worthwhile risks and expanding the universes of sound. In addition to KOMA, companies like Folktek, Noise Engineering and Metasonix are pushing all the right boundaries for me. Good times in that sense. But to return to Field Kit FX, do you think it could be a good friend to accompany an eurorack system or even a sampler like the Roland SP-404sx?

    • @Hainbach
      @Hainbach  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Ellotus13 I fully agree! It's indeed a magic time for electronic music creation, with all the tools available now. I am thinking of putting the FKFX in my live 6U - a lot of power for the HP. With an SP it will be fun, too, both for creating sounds and as an FX.

    How is the build quality of the field kit fx, can I have an honest opinion as I found one used and although it's not very expensive it is still pricey. Also is it compatible with -+5v modular gear? Thank you.

    Hello Hainbach!
    Thank you for all the wonderful videos on your channel!
    I’ve just got the Koma Field Kit en Field Kit FX with both expansion packs.
    I have a question I hope you’ll be able to answer: jouw do I use the feedback cable from the FX pack (stereo to 2x mono jack)? Can I use it to split signals like a mult?
    Thanks!

    Hi Hainbach, I love your videos! Such great information I can't find anywhere else. I have a few questions for you. What sort of attenuation is required, if any, to connect your tape players, op-1, etc, to the field kit? Would anything different be required for guitar directly in? Hoping you've got some advice. I'm really wanting to integrate the Field kit and the fx into my setup

    • @Hainbach
      @Hainbach  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Field Kit will take everything easily, no need to worry about attenuation. Enough gain for guitar, too.

      Not directly, no. You can look into how Morton Subotnik and others did it though. There is a way to have CV manipulate audio signal and then record the signal.

    Hey HAINBACH,
    I'm just about to buy a simple mixer and several pedals for my Korg Volcas, but accidentally found this device.
    Does this mixer part works for connection other devices or it's just internal Field Kit's mixer? Would be great if Field Kit FX could replace several other devices for me.

    • @Hainbach
      @Hainbach  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It can work as a mixer with level modulation. The tone control is always active though, so you never get a clean signal. Creatively a good thing.

  • @StepRecorder
    @StepRecorder 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm trying to follow how you have this rigged up, but it's difficult to see all of the patch cables. So can you plug a synth or other source with a 1/4 inch cable directly into this device, say into the mixer, and then use the effects on that sound? Or do you have to use the CV inputs to use the effects? It's not totally clear to me. I don't have an synths with CV outputs at this time. (Also, thanks for posting. Your videos are great.)

    • @Hainbach
      @Hainbach  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You need 1/8 cables, its all in the Eurorack jack format. But then it works. The CV can be used to modulate the FX, so you don't need external FX.
