Pretty much an ongoing discussion: I’d like to remove Motion/Mental from the Mothership to use it as the Mescaline monolith, but retain the ability to make unusual percussive sounds. This is the discussion.
Read more "Synth Thoughts: A Drum Voice for the TNG Mothership"“Spielsachen” has been going on for quite some time (more than two years), and resulted in fifty videos to date.
Here’s my personal picks from that pool of modular thing performances – what are yours?
The Doepfer A-111-6 is the smallest and cheapest synth voice in Eurorack format. But is it any good? This is one of the “yes, but…” or “even though…” reviews.
Read more "Review: Doepfer A-111-6 Mini Synth"Some time ago, I rambled about potential setups which, why they did contain some modular content, had that as a minor component. Now, it’s time to look at results and experiences.

In the second of two articles, it’s about growing smaller, or an offspring if you will. A compact, portable setup that retains some (but not all) of the original Spielsachen principles.

In this first of two articles, it’s about sideways growth. Making things different, more efficient.
Read more "Tech Thoughts: “Spielsachen” – growing sideways"September of 2017 saw me get my first two Eurorack modules. Since then, my system has grown – and I learned a few things along the way. Let’s go over the most important ones.
Read more "Synth Thoughts: Lessons from the Eurorack Universe"Being able to assemble everything to your liking is one of the key advantages of modular synths. If your newly assembled wavetable synth gets a ladder filter, a lowpass gate, a six-pole opto-FET design or something else is entirely up to you. With that comes the necessity to do just that. To assemble a simple […]

Read more "Review: Makenoise René Mk.2"Superbooth 2019 is over, and with it came lots of new modules, from prototypes and POC devices to those available immediately. I always take a look at what Doepfer, the mother of all Eurorack, has to offer. So let’s have a look at the new additions that were shown there, most of which are available […]
