joining the modular club

[ToAd]

Kai,

Nice Christmas present ;-)

As you might know, I built this:

http://modular.thebigear.be/#8.0

And still discovering new possibilities ;-)

Consider a Cirklon with cvio for driving the modular. I finally went multi-timbral. And I gained 4U of space as I could ditch the midi2CV's.

As for sounds, keep track of your patches. I take foto's of the patches I like.
The few patches you find on the web are pretty useless, but it gives you a start.

As for addiction, I've been as good as clean for the last 2 years. I 
only replaced the midi2cv's because I didn't like the holes ;-)

Have fun with it! (and be gentle with the PSU)

I have a rack mount TeeBee 303 with 4xgate/CV outs and am wondering if the Doepfer Dark Link would make sense to integrate it with either iPad, Computer or other Midi keyboards (since it has a MIDI in as well) and it's smaller.
