    picked up an Error Instruments Radio Sputnik, it's been around a few years in various formats. Incredible combo of nostalgic creepiness and simplicity to emulate the sounds of tuning in to 'pip' stations on an AM radio (everyone who's in to synths did this as a kid right?) with an odd binary sequencer/ beat divider that emulates the pulses of the Russian station UVB-76.

    Had to get what remains of my eurorack system down from the attic to get extra cables and multiples, I had sworn off it but getting notions of taking the modular in a different direction this time, staying away from anything predictable and conventionally musical, maybe expanding this in to something akin to a VCS-3

      Experimenting with wild abandon is what modular is all about IMO.

    • Your old Mutable modules might be worth more than you paid for them now that they’re all out of production.mort_
    • UVB-76 was my ringtone for about a decade. Even pitched up, I had a Pavlovian urge to check my phone.garbage
