Awful, tragic news. Such an underappreciated actor; Ziggy Sobotka is one of The Wire’s great recurring characters. www.the-independent.com/arts-enterta...

What did you do in 2025? What did you learn? What worked well for you, and what didn't? What kind of music did you compose? Did you make any purchases you're happy with or any you regret? What would you recommend to others? And did you discover any free resources worth sharing? #eurorack #synthsky

What happened in 2025? Not that much. Few modules were added: Doepfer A-155-2 Mini sequencer, Erica Synth Octasource, Intellijel Multigrain, Monome Teletype clone and Doepfer A-119 Ext In. Best buy for me was the external mixer Yamaha MG12XU. So useful! #eurorack #synthsky

Epic version for us who like retro computers :-) youtu.be/kMGbGGllQoE?...

Recalibrated my O_C today. Thought I changed some setttings by accident earlier. Had to do some minor corrections #o_c #eurorack #synthsky

Any Ladik afficionados here? Great build quality and their russian space program no bs design makes even Doepfer look like Dieter Rams designs 😂 #synthsky #ladik #eurorack

Sometimes I like to solve little programming riddles / problems. Commodore Basic V2 has no dynamic GOSUBS like "GOSUB n" where n is a variable. But by finding the gosub token in basic program memory (and the address), you can POKE a new adress to be used instead. This is self modifying code :-) #C64

Using a spare multiple to keep it tid when they are Not used #synthsky

Shortened the legs of my custom table and added labels to all the patch cables going into the mixer #synthsky #eurorack

Did a few basic patches with the Octasource and as always looked up the manual to dive deeper. Was a bit disappointed that there's only a 2 page manual online (the same as the printed one in the package). Show at least a few diagrams of the outputs in relation to the position of the knobs #synthsky

Where can I find decent 808 samples? Free or affordable would be nice. Thank you #808 #roland #syntsky

I'm exploring the idea of driving the Spectravox's band filters with a "moving" sine wave. This would require a module with 8+ CV outputs driven by a phase-shifted LFO. I had Claude code a visualization showing how the outputs would move across the outputs. #synthsky #sinewave #eurorack

Booting up the mothership #eurorack #synthsky

Hm, saw a video about the Teenage Engineering TX-6 mixer. I see the appeal of their other stuff (groove box stuff), but who needs a 1200 EUR micro mixer? You'll get 3 (!) Yamaha 12 channel mixers for that Money #eurorack #synthsky

These led patch cables from Oxi are nice, but only visible when it is kinda dark. Guess i have to turn off my watchtower like Illumination to make it work 😥 #synthsky #oxi #eurorack

Doepfer A-155-2 sequencer arrived. The bottom row should be the right place, that's why the ribbon controller module and sumdif will move #synthsky #doepfer #eurorack

Providing these "getting started" preset overlays is a great idea from Moog #synthsky #moog

A-102 Diode LOW PASS goes, hello A-103 VCF 18dB LOW PASS #synthsky #eurorack

Hmmmm hmmm #eurorack #synthsky

Hmmmm #moog

First adventures in Teletype land. Simple sequencer with some fixed and some random notes. Every 13 steps one step gets removed. There is also a bit of CV manipulation there, param knob value controls timbre in plaits #monometeletype #synthsky

Sometimes it is fun to use ChatGPT to discuss coding ideas or even take snippets from what it comes up with. With Java/SQL/Python that works well. With C64 it is kinda bad (normal Basic stuff is okay, SID with PEEK/POKE is bad). But its Monome teletype code by ChatGPT is hilariously bad #synthsky

After moving the overflow rack to its new place, the scope has re-entered the area. Shelf stability is not great, probably needs more elements to increase stiffness. Still waiting for 3d printer parts #synthsky #eurorack

Brian Cox almost looks like the leader of a synth band here...

Did it! #eurorack #monometeletype

Not my best day. 3d printer broke while printing cabinet legs and had to order replacement parts. Then i failed to update the firmware of the Teletype (wrong driver). When i installed the new shelf/cabinet (what is the difference?) I knocked over a lamp. Yikes #eurorack #notmyday

Made a shelf made from aluminium profiles. The mixer will fit underneath and my overflow rack will be in top. Needs 3d printed cabinet legs and it's done. #eurorack #synthsky

Camera says the color isn't yellow. But it is. First experiments: Script triggers on input 1 and sends 2 gate pulses to tr output 1 and a random CV to cv output 1. Range of random is controlled by variable X. A lot to learn here #synthsky #eurorack #monometeleype

The small us keyboard arrived and waits for the Teletype clone to arrive. Looks a bit out of place there. Yesterday I read the first chapters in the tutorial. Happy days ahead #monometeletype #synthsky #eurorack

At some point before 2020 I saw this film, it is the reason I bought my first Eurorack module, Mutable Instruments Plaits during the pandemic #synthsky fawesome.tv/movies/10737...

When I read about the concept for he first time I was intrigued. Then I thought it's stupid (typing on a keyboard...feels like working?). Then these clones got rare and the DIY kits are expensive considering shipping and customs). So when this showed up on german version of craigslist, I bought it 😃

Miss me with this instant forgiveness of Marjorie Taylor Greene. She’s no hero. She’s Christoph Waltz at the end of Inglorious Basterds.

Bob Moog died for your synths! Don't do modular! Not even once!* *Modularsynths gelten bei Synth-Nerd*Inen als Gegenstück zu Crack & Meth :D weil dann wirds wirklich wild mit Module sammeln. NOCH konnte ich widerstehen!

Found this old video of a Lorenz attractor running on a Raspberry Pi with audio being fed into a Koma Field Kit Fx. That is how I started my modular journey #eurorack #synthsky #lorenzattractor #math

Don't mind the chaos. Imho germans master the art of Beistelltisch (= side table). Now the Commodore C64 is back and there is even more space underneath for the scope and accessories #commodore #c64 #eurorack #synthsky

Ordered Doepfers new A-155-2 "Miniature Analog Sequencer". Thought I don't need one, because I already have the Oxi One. But the truth is, I use the simplistic Korg SQ-1 quite often and this thing is as basic as the SQ-1 and that's how my basic brain rolls :-) #eurorack #doepfer #synthsky

Been playing around with using voltages created by dynamic systems for a while now. Sarahs video here is about creating farn like structures with (fractal) algorithms (which is also an dynamic (chaotic) system). Interesting! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9W6m... #synthsky

Steve Davies is still the coolest cat on the planet: now playing modular synthesizer for "The Utopia Strong". Their new album, "Doperider" is aces! Saw them live last month.

Has anyone tried this? Saw a video from @msmadlemon.bsky.social and as a vintage compute person it seems like a lovely device. Yes, it runs on SID clones, but the original chipa are really going extinct. MIDISID : MIDI in, 2 x SID clones from MIDI IN on Tindie share.google/i11yNbmg8R4x...

Didn't use the "end of" outputs of my ADSR envelope modules so far, except the ones in Math. Got inspired by Monotrails last video on YT. Here the "end of decay" output triggers the next envelope. Pretty useful for delays #synthsky #eurorack

Any "watch ppl" here? :-) I’m generally not a "bracelet person", so I wore this Sinn 142 on a Cordura strap for a while. Unfortunately, the strap deteriorated rather quickly, so I’ve gone back to the bracelet. Still looking out for a new strap. Any hints? #Sinn #Watches

Yeah! #synthsky

Want to use use a microphone with your eurorack? Tascam DR-07X (and probably others, too) has a prerecord mode, where audio is routed to the line out, but it doesen't record. Doepfer A-119 converts the signal to hot eurorack levels #synthsky #eurorack #doepfer

2 or 3 years ago i had a lot of fun with the Koma Field Kit. Later i got the FX, too. Need to do more work in the fields! #synthsky #komafieldkit

Do you have projects that remain in status "kind of finished" for a verrry long period of time? Here is one of many. Show me yours 🤯 #esp32 #arduino #electronics

Today it's my turn to be a bookfluencer. Heard good things about this one. It's about the history of how we (humans) use, transmit and keep what we know #thingswithpages #books #JamesGleick

Eurorack fashionista, which are your favorite blank panels? Show me! Mine are rather dull. The blank aluminium ones are the style i prefer so far...fits the serious Doepfer instrument Style #eurorack #synthsky

Hm, why do I have to set a magic factor of 16 to get the correct BPM in the O_C Phazerville scope app? #synthsky #o_c

Whenever I work with 6,3mm jack plugs, I wish the modular synth used them for all the patching. It's soooo satisfying to plug them in and out. Yeah i know, space bla bla woof #eurorack #synthsky #firstworldproblems
