    discovered a couple of things over the weekend.. most importantly using the Sub37 as the controller for the Slimphatty means all the knobs on the Sub37 send and match the controllers which are usually buried in menus on the Slimphatty..
    so awesome.

    after a good 2 days of maintenance in the studio, I repatched and reworked a few of the setups.. so everything is back to working as it should..

    also finally found a boutique TB-03, so I decided to finally get around to setting up a sub mixer for the TR-09, TR-08, SH01A and the TB-03 so they are all now setup, powered and connected via midi..

    then yesterday, I think I managed to fix a broken Machinedrum that I have had on my desk for 6 months.. the internal battery needed to be desoldered and replaced.. removing it, meant it would boot up (once) and I picked up the replacement battery today.. so fingers crossed, fixing it..

    should actually make some music soon.. but it just drives me nuts when things are not totally right..

    close tho..
    so close

    • nothing exciting.. just thought I would shareautoflavour
    • thats why i switched to setting up and stripping down just what gear i need when i need it. you shouldn't feel like an engineer in your own studio.kingsteven
    • its half the fun.. that said, i am a bit of nerd when it comes to hardware.. love knowing how things can talk to each other..autoflavour
    • setup tonight had the Analog4 cv driving the SH2, with audio signal going to the Moog Murf clocked to Ableton, then into the Moog Ring Mod, with frequencyautoflavour
    • controlled by the TT303 .. signal finally going through the RE201 space echo..
      sure you can do that with software.. but where is the fun?      autoflavour
    • yeah man, i know... i just prefer the approach of doing it on the fly. loads of clear workspace and grab a synth as you need it... takes less effort in the longkingsteven
    • run and makes for more creative possibilities. as soon as i have something in place i need to move it or switch round ins/outs or it becomes an ornamentkingsteven
    • patchbays are your friends..autoflavour
    • everything in the studio is always plugged in, and can be routed anywhere from one central point. so much quicker.autoflavour
    • its like sitting inside a giant modular synth.. also, I wouldn't know where to store all this stuff if it wasn't setup..autoflavour
