- In episode 1, it was fun to dive in. Then I found out that the system isn't just a matter of putting all modules in a case, wiring up the I/O on the back and get to work. It's modular (duh) so it's more a matter of recipes where the order of modules isn't fixed. Having all modules in a case doesn't exactly help to understand them either, there's just too many variables and it's extremely easy to make a wrong connection with the 'pale pink stripe' down or up on the LBZ ribbon cables. You really need to double check and then again. XAOC, make them red. Please.
In this episode I tried to get the Rostock module to work. It's a bucket brigade 'delay' with 64 memory locations. Or a shift register. Anyway, it allows you to accumulate values from the bus and store them so you can loop it. However, with a clock running at 2 mHz you don't hear 64 bytes when millions come by. If it's even audible it's in the nanosecond range. I had to slow down to actually see the module work.
XAOC has provided cool patch examples in the manual and I focused on delaying/looping rhythms with Rostock, Lipsk (bit inverter) and Poczdam (router/binary output). I am also using Odessa in the video, which is a truly amazing VCO which also has a Leibniz header on the back to control partials with bitmaps. I absolutely LOVE this system and can't wait to get started on episode 03.
I am watching this video, and I don't understand any of it. Back to the drawing board....
Having watched a couple of Tom Churchill’s videos, I’m taking an entirely different route into Leibniz. I started with just an Erfurt, and was amazed at how easy, and fun, it was to create complex sequences with simply Erfurt, a 3xMIA and a VCO. Now I’ve added a Lipsk, which increases the fun- and complexity!- by several powers of two. I guess I’m going to have to go bigger than 6hp next time (Rostock? Drezno?), but my Leibniz sub-system has worked from the off, and I’m not regretting this particular rabbit-hole at all.
Those zeros and ones are powerful indeed. Please continue this exploration.
I immediately shot Jena material after finishing this video. It's getting better and better once you get the hang of it. Coming soon!
Hmm, yes. Thinking in recipes maybe a cool way to think about this system. Look forward to hearing more from this series!
Nice one mate. 👌 I love Xaoc stuff. Completely unique; always a different take to the other manufacturers.
Totally agree. All these modules have something special to offer. But the GAS attack is terrible and my wishlisth is growing bigger than my case.
@@CinematicLaboratory 🤪
Tbh honest I was pretty lost with half of this video but I do like the results and I’m still interested!
Honestly, same here. This series is a journey and I learn as I go, while other channels study first, and show you the pretty results. I'd rather share the real life experience. A few episodes in, I'll be able to explain a lot more.
@@CinematicLaboratory I love it! Thank you for doing that!
Dope to listen to. That Osc is MAD 😊!!! But that system is way beyond me . Can’t imagine the HOURS needed to even learn the basics here. Amazing work!
*the Jomox kick module has a backwards connection too lol. Red is not -12
I usually stay far away from modules like this, but I've been a programmer for 40 years so I don't mind a few bits and bytes. I really enjoy trying to figure it out because they're analog modules doing digital logic. They're analog computers. And they're much, much easier to figure out. As for the -12, the power is on black guided headers so you can't go wrong here. And the red stripe for the LBZ connectors is clearly marked on the back, it's just the red stripe on the ribbon itself that's very faint (tiny little lines). I usually film in low light and it's super easy to make a wrong connection. So now I doublecheck under a bright lamp :).
Looking forward to see and hear more Leibniz stuff from you ❤ - concerning the Drezno Rostock patch: for what do you use the DAC output on Drezno? Thanks
I need to convert the delayed or scrambled data back to CV before I can use it to patch to the FM input or 1V/Oct. Rostock works in the binary domain.
Wonderful
Now I'm even more confused what the Leibniz system is or why anyone would ever want one. I really did XAOC but I just do not get this system, wish someone could actually explain what it does
Hopefully I'll find out at the end of this series. For now, I am just as confused as you are. The difference is, I took the dive so I have no choice but to swim.
So no Drezno here? what is driving hte poczdam?
Rostock get's a clock from Moskwa but doesn't have any data. With Lipsk I manually flip a few bits to create some data, which goes to Poczam. Finally, Poczdam routes them back to Rostock so it can delay them and send them back into the loop. There's no AD/DA conversion so you don't need Drezno. You need Poczdam to get the gates out and back into the modular.
Nice intro.
A guy is making a module which has the connections available on the front for repatching ease.
I saw it on one of Bries liebniz videos.
@@markhill7548 I saw it too, but as far as I could see it was still hand made. I think I'll go for 'islands' and use the bit i/o on the panel to make patches on the front. But it may be a cool solution for the true Leibniz user. I am not one of them yet :). I am a beginner!
@@CinematicLaboratory the idea is sound.
