Re: 4-tier 60HP Moog setup (with pictures!)

How did you pass the uZeus board ? ... I don't have good pictures. To pass the flying bus board, you unscrew one wall from both 60HP skiffs, you pass the flying bus between them and screw everything back up. You can tighten it pretty well, the flying bus adds maybe 1mm, well within the flexibility ...

Re: side panel colour and cut

The fact they are more square doesn't hinder anything. For my 4-tier Moog rack project I put the square cheeks behind the frame and left the gorgeous old-style ones on the top, exposed. It looks good. And even if the wood colors don't match perfectly, behind the black frame the color difference is n...

Re: side panel colour and cut

Yes, the last empty 60HP case I ordered is like you're describing: lighter wood and less rounded edges. Mildly annoying but fortunately, when mounted in the 3-tier rack, the difference is negligible.

Expert Sleepers ES-3 and ES-6 not quite Moog case friendly

I just installed ES-3 and ES-6 as part of my 4-tier Moog rack project . Since I'm a clown, I didn't quite check if the modules are going to be skiff friendly. They are not! However, I'm stubborn so managed to get it installed and fully working: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4830253/expert-slee...

4-tier 60HP Moog setup (with pictures!)

You build a three-tier Mother-32 setup . You're happy with what you got but one day you discover the joys of DIY . Suddenly you're faced with insufficient rack space. It feels silly to repack everything for an additional 60HP or so. It feels wasteful and not elegant to get another skiff or case for ...

Re: Disabling sequencer, is it possible?

My solution is the MIDI Thru 4 / Filter box by miditech, bought from Amazon. It has switches on the back, disabling Realtime messages fixes the problem. One minor annoyance with this is that this disables also MIDI clock sync, so if you *do* start your sequencer by CV or manually, it's going to be f...

Re: two questions: gate out / EG attack time

Well, it's eurorack. You can get your Moms an external VCA (like Mutable Veils) and then you can combine it with an external resettable LFO (like Batumi) to get the effect you want.

Re: Keyboard tracking with Pittsburgh Waveforms

The symptoms are that tracking is flat. This is due to impedance mismatch of Mother's KB out and MULT outs with what external 1v/oct often expect. I had this exact same problem with an Intellijel Dixie. The solution is to buy an external buffered mult module and route 1v/oct through it. This workaro...

Re: New firmware ideas

Well, PC literally stands for "program change". Moog implemented MIDI on the Mother very faithfully. Agreed they could use CC0 for that purpose, too, but decided to allow it on ASSIGN instead. On the other hand, I agree 100% with being able to disable MIDI START/STOP messages. That's defin...

Re: Daisy chain

That's not really a direct answer to your question but you could put your Moms in a eurorack case, which would then use a single wall power plug.

Re: Missing feature: legato-controlled glide

To reply to myself, you can set MIDI velocity to be output via the ASSIGN CC (option 10). Then you'd patch it to VCF cutoff, maybe through the mixer to attenuate how much the velocity affects it. So accents are actually pretty easy to solve. For legato-controlled glide though, there's nothing like t...

Re: LFO rate 1v/oct?

Yeah, no, that's not going to work. You can fine-tune it too attenuate it, which I've been doing to the filter resonance sine. That works, it tracks acceptably well across 2.5 octaves and detunes rather pleasantly after. But with the LFO rate, frequency increments are too small to begin with. I'd ne...
