This is so cool - I am so going to use this in my next #eurorack jam.

"Shift Register Random Calvados Voltage"
How about a track made on my 54hp lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth, with some rhythm also generated by the synth? Using the #Disting Mk4 algorithm F6, the shift register random quantized voltage function and frequency divider for the percussions. #korg #volca #mix compressor used to create part of the rests and syncopation. Food related? Calvados.

"Food Noise"
Another track made on the portable lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth. Minimal techno, in the vein of experiments I was doing in the 1990s. In fact, a bit reminiscent of my "Radio Interference" album (with a bit of Little Drummer and Radio Two). #music #techno #experimental #minimal #minimalist #shortwave
It is on #soundcloud.

"Hot Sauce Feedback"
Another experiment in #minimalist #ambient #music with the portable #Behringer #Neutron. The built in delay & distortion built into it helps a lot, I don't have to carry much to make complete tracks. Sequenced from the #Korg SQ1. Recorded in the great outdoors directly to a Tascam digital recorder. Great North Carolina weather recently, so these sessions are doubly enjoyable.

I am slowly but surely setting myself up to do some regular videos on synthesis and other audio / video / photo related subjects.
I got some starting points for synths with basic controls, semimodulars and I'm now looking at modular. Which setup would you like me to talk about? (There is more, but poll is only up to 4 choices!?)
"Happy Wasabi Wavetable"
Another #electronic #music track done live on the battery powered 54hp lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth. Disting Mk4 on wavetable algo, Beehive and uBursts. Sequencing & mod through Pachinko. #2HP Kick, #Bastl Skis w/radio for basic percussions. Added an RD-6 to augment the drums. Final mix through the #Korg #Volca Mix (also powered by the battery pack) sitting in the lunchbox case lid. Listen to it on #soundcloud on my lunchbox playlist:

Where to put the documentation, specs etc for your modular synth modules and power? Inside the case, of course. You'll never lose them that way. I put then inside a plastic pouch too.
In the back, with cover and reverb tank removed. Bottom 1U has the power supply, a USB port, a strymon level converter and a midi to cv converter (the 3u modules are mounted in abyss devices adapters and adapter mounted to front rails back through long standoffs)
Cables are held in place through plastic clamps, fixed to the vector rails and power bus held by screws.
My system 100m tribute system (#behringer modules in a custom case, with 1u modules replicating the functionality of a 191J chassis. 1u modules include a CV din input for keyboard I finished last week, a logo, 3 multiples, a reverb and mini banana 3.5 conversion and power on/off. I put back the 2hp freez and Hat I was using in the lunchbox system. Also includes a kick and an Euclid. #eurorack #modular #behringer #roland #100m #synth #vintage #diy #tribute
I recorded another track on the portable lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth yesterday. It is called "Apple Pi a la Mode", to keep with the lunchbox / food stuff theme. Plus given yesterday's date...
Wanted to use the #roland #cr78 for some percussions, but that's not super portable (and runs on 110V, not battery power), so I ended up capturing a few loops on a TC Electronic Ditto+ looper pedal. Created a playlist for these tracks. #music #analog #modularsynth #loops.
my most recent #EarthModularSociety stream is the first one in a couple months due to life stuff. the patch is based around this wildly pitch shifting chord through the Rainbow Machine, so a lot of the harmonies, key, etc are quite ambiguous
"LFO Infusion Tisane" - a new track on #soundcloud. An #ambient #soundscape done 100% on the #behringer neutron. Recorded outdoors, running the Neutron on a battery pack, into a Zoom MS-60B, into a Tascam digital recorder, into my AKG K712 headphones. #Battery pack is charged from a #solar panel, so this is a totally self contained #studio... (even more if I use also the lunchbox #eurorack #modular

The same approach to add multiples to my #eurorack #modulars can be also used to add multiples to semimodulars such as the #behringer #neutron (and similar eurorack compatible skiffs). I added small L brackets to the side screws, then mounted short standoffs, then finally mount the 3U module to the standoffs. #diy #studio #music #synth
3D modeling a support for a "tank" version of the Chowndolo, it will hold in place the PCB I designed as well as a @belaplatform #musictech #audioproject #synthdesign #musicgear #musicalinstruments #DIYmusic #electronicmusic #sounddesign #modularsynth #synthesizer #eurorack #musicproduction #opensourcehardware #3Dmodeling #3Dprinting #CADdesign #FreeCAD #opensource #hardwarehacking #embeddedaudio #creativecoding #generativemusic #physicalcomputing #digitalfabrication #BelaPlatform #experimentaltech #techart
This is roughly my #eurorack #modular #synth configuration:
https://modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/2777911
The behringer radar is sideways in the 1u space bottom right (modular grid doesnt support sideways modules), two 3u mults are way at the bottom stacked above the 1U modules, and the 3u 2hp full right module is a diy send/receive for guitar pedals. I need to create an entry on modular grid for it, along with a picture. Also need to create entries for 2hp kick, snake, bell all upside down. CM1A midi on left side
Here's my updated and improved review of the AudioScape Eurobuss VCA Compressor - did a better job - fabulous module - makes you work harder on your mix https://youtu.be/IynIr33IIyU #eurorbuss #eurorack
Uploaded the first full track I've done on my lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth since completing it last night (are they ever truly done?). It's been a long ongoing project, now I can focus on making #music, #experimenting.
It is an #ambient #minimalist track. One unusual piece is the use of a pulsar vco. It is called "Pulsar Salad" (it is a lunchbox synth, after all). You can find it on #soundcloud
Alright. Enough Rambling. #introduction time since I moved to a new server.

Wide variety of music types, am developing my skills as a #musicproducer in what little spare time I have.
My new (and first) album is available on #bandcamp https://timmarcusmoore.bandcamp.com/album/a-smeared-windowpane or @jamcoop https://jam.coop/artists/tim-marcus-moore/albums/a-smeared-windowpane Inspired by my disorientation in today's world and my young child's unrestrained joy in it. Streaming services soon. If you connect with it but can't afford to buy it, please send me a private message. #electronicmusic #eurorack #modularsynth #experimentalmusic #ambient
Playing with the #modularsynth at night, amongst the trees.
The only #modular #synth I can just pick up and set up absolutely anywhere and play. Battery powered, with mixer and battery fitting inside the lid.
Next, it's time to put the disting module to good use. I prepped the micro SD card with a bunch of wavetables
