P.S. Don't do yourself down!!! Everyone's experience with Eurorack is valuable. I totally appreciate your insights into these modules and your workflow. We are all learners!
I was today years old when i learned that it was S ALM PLE. Now i get it. Also, I'm with ya on the menu diving and wanting more imediate use. Its so powerful to have Pams and other modules that do tons with only a few buttons but it is a chore. Great module... but not as fun.
@@nicksouthcote8826 all a balance of power size and cost, wish pam’s went more of a simplicity route for my uses but small cases i do love the power too, i don’t envy eurorack builders haha
The reason I want to build modular system is drums sounds. In my humble opinion modular drums sounds are so good and unique that is hard to achieve by "regular" drum machines. I just ordered case and trying figure out power supply to it.
I’ve a long history with samplers..😟 I’m “looking at” the ALM Salmple to put in my rack, but am takin a long, hard look at the candidates bc I don’t enjoy the learning curve..
I use the BitBox Micro... I can agree with you to an extent about the work flow but I have more or less got my head around it. I don't really use it for drums, I use it for bits of speech, FX, and to bring polyphony into my rack without masses of modules! It's also really useful in live performance (which I do a lot) and it's also got the ability to record CV and play it back. I'm sure the Squid is also a really good option. I also agree with you about Pams!!! Oh, heck... you summed that up beautifully.
@@tafonyreynolds Oh indeed... that was how I first used it, just triggering samples and noises from the screen. I still do that but have now got it paired up with a Hermod+ (another long learning curve... still not quite got there yet!). The combination is great!
If you like wavetables you should check out the Piston Honda mk3, or any of its versions but the 3 is what’s up in my opinion, and I’ve owned all of them.
I always thought it was salmple like salmon, but I think both interpretations are valid. Enjoyed the video, now I have to put more effort into using mine.

Really enjoying your videos. And the cat! 😂

Sampling gate sequences and modulating the start and end points can be really cool especially if you like glitchy stuff
@@mikegeary8056 there’s so much still to discover!

that screen for easy manual playback is a huge plus too!

@@AndyVonal funny you agree on pam’s, wonder how much stuff like that i’m not alone on
I feel like you are saying my internal monologue out-loud. feel the same about simplicity and drum modules 😂
had a feeling im not alone hahaha
I just started using the choke group settings and it really oped up a new dimension for me
@@mikegeary8056 I bareeeely scratched the surface in this video!
Great video. Love your take on eurorack. Also love the OFF! shirt, too. Keith is my fav black flag singer.
@@jeffb01 mine too, wonder how many eurorack punks are out there 🤔
1:47 THATS ENOUGH
i never realized sALMple.....

@@mikegeary8056 just sold my PHmk3 to pick up a ziqual dimension mk3
Is there any way to sample internally?
@@jmfhsmith4923 absolutely! sample in on the front panel

i actually found it was even looking to noodling with it after, might need to check for a gas leak lol
