Sketches #110: Ambient Eurorack [ Mutable Marbles | Rings | Clouds | Beads | Make Noise Morphagene ]
Hello, world!
This is patch which has grown out of an earlier generative patch that I made • Sketches #105 - Immers...
The intention here was to try and create something that slowly morphed into a different part or section, a different movement you might say. I'm not entirely sure I was successful and creating this patch has involved a considerable amount of frustration and dead ends. However, it has also been an interesting learning experience too. How do you cope with a patch that doesn't seem to be working out as intended? What strategies do you have for dealing with patch frustration?
Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy!

[@daveybeeeee]

Yeah! 😊

[@Hessencemusic]

this is beautiful ! amazing use of these modules..

[@justrichardcharles]

Hey, thanks for the comment ☺️

[@NiclasJeppsson]

Very nice!

[@justrichardcharles]

Thanks 😊

[@runningin533]

lovely track with nice atmosphere and vibes. As for frustration day one ok expect that day 3 I've had enough of this bs pull patch cables start again.🙂🙃🙏

[@justrichardcharles]

Yes, I've had plenty of 'pull the cables' moments, glad it's not just me then. Sometimes that seems to be the only answer. A fresh start, and letting go of whatever it was I was trying to force with patch.

[@rmanpojo8485]

great track...... what is the module top right (big 6 black knobs) you use at 5:30 ?

[@justrichardcharles]

Hey, thanks for the comment! It's just a mixer, Happy Nerding Panmix. It has 4 mono channels and 2 stereo plus CV for the pan on each channel. I usually just record the modular as a stereo signal into computer, so it's quite handy having the ability to control the panning of voices directly from the modular.

I see you have a B' 2600, I have the B' System 15, but added some other B' modules, have you any Behringer in your rack? Cheers Tim.

[@justrichardcharles]

Hi Tim, I don't at the moment, but I have been thinking about getting the 960 sequencer. It seems pretty cheap and I thought it would pair pretty well with the 2600 and other rack stuff too.

[@DisciplinedCommotion]

@@justrichardcharles I have the 1027, because it takes up less space, and cheaper :)

[@justrichardcharles]

A friend of mine has one of those and said it was quite good, might have to give it another look

[@DisciplinedCommotion]

@@justrichardcharles I have the 1027 beacause it takes up less space, and cheaper :)

[@DisciplinedCommotion]

@@justrichardcharles I am pleased with it, but the 960 seems you can mute steps and stuff on the fly easier
