    Seriously though, this is definitely one of those few modules I would Manhunt for my starter dream Eurorack rig someday; I almost jumped out of my seat when I heard the folded + overdriven sine blast through the headset in Nick Batt's earlier video review.
    Of course, hearing the real deal yourself is objectively the best way to experience such a banger price-affordable piece of sound source module.

    Is this module practical enough for you to keep around forbyourboqn use? I thought I told myself no with this module already because I honestly can't stand the way it looks and has no octave switch. Now I want one again. Your video really shows off how good it sounds its insane. I have a bastl pizza oscillator that I'm not in love with looking to replace it. Originally wanted a versatile digital oscillator to replace pizza but this thing sounds so good.

    • @TheUnperson
      @TheUnperson  Před rokem +1

      This is the only analogue oscillator I own so I’ll definitely be keeping it. It does sound very good, and I love the drive, wave folding and FM. I think for the price it’s pretty insane. You could always put some stickers over the front panel lol

    is there a way to use this outside the context of a modular system? I have a few semi modulars, and I have a rack that could power this module but I dont have any other elements of a synth voice in modular form...

    • @TheUnperson
      @TheUnperson  Před rokem +2

      Do any of your semi-modulars have an external input? If so, you could use it as an extra oscillator which will go through the filter/vca, etc of that synth :)

    Just a quick question! - If you could only keep one of 2 modules, Data Bender and Maths. Which would you choose?

    • @TheUnperson
      @TheUnperson  Před rokem +1

      Defo keeping the data bender! I mostly only use maths for LFOs and envelopes so it can be replaced by other modules ☺️

    I have a keystep and niftycase, would you be so kind as to explain, for a novice, how do I connect the keyboard in this system

    • @TheUnperson
      @TheUnperson  Před rokem +4

      The keystep has pitch and gate out on the back. Patch the pitch into your oscillator 1v/o and the gate can be used to trigger an envelope for a filter or VCA :)

    Is Pam's synced to the keystep here?

    • @TheUnperson

      They are not physically synced but running at the same BPM and triggered in time :)

      @@TheUnperson "in time" meaning, like you pushed start at the same time and hope for the best?
      Since no one asked: I have Pam's following Din Sync from the Digitakt, which has two MIDI outs, either of which can send Din/Sync, bless it.
      I tried sending Din-Sync from VCV Rack through my ES-3 with limited success - something about DC offset I think, b/c it kind of worked when I used an AC coupler (RC filter) on the clock signal, but it was very fiddly. I also had trouble getting VCV to follow Din/Sync from Pams sent through the ES-4. For now, I sync VCV to Pams by sending midi to the DT by hosting the DT overbridge VST in Host, then sending Din-sync to Pams. There is latency between the clock sent to the DT Host and the audio input from the modular received inside Rack, which I account for `manually` by inserting a delay on the clock signals inside VCV.
      So ZZC Clock inside VCV is the boss, it sends 24PPQN and Run/stop goes to DT's Host without a delay, but anything else inside Rack gets delayed clock signals (including reset).
      For extra fun, the delay time changes every time I restart my computer, so I need to use a scope to make sure I've got it ligned up. So far I don't recall it changing mid session.
