Squarp Hapax - Eurorack Guide

In this video I explore how we can use the Hapax with Eurorack in a playful way.
The Hapax is fun to integrate with any eurorack hardware, but also a nice way to have a hybrid between with both CV and Midi.
For this video I chose to use the powerful Percussa SSP to be able to demonstrate both the cv and midi capabilities of Hapax. Later I introduce Frap Tools USTA (sequencer) and Rample to further cv possibilities of the Hapax.
0:00 intro
1:29 simple setup overview
2:20 setup - cv/gate outputs
2:45 algo workflow, to get going
6:15 start tweaking
8:20 generate a lead
9:30 variation : curves
12:25 variation : symmetry algo
14:15 extending control with midi
15:00 small gotcha and workaround
15:30 assign encoders to control modules
17:50 LFO FX - modulate clouds module
20:47 use midi or cv?
21:25 complex setup overview
22:35 why no clock?
22:58 setup drum track via gate
23:54 generate some perc
25:30 triggering drone
26:26 using cv/gate in
26:37 cv to midi function
26:57 multi track cv/gate recording
31:00 what do I have so far?
32:00 generating automation from cv in
33:25 record and use cv in 1 and 2
36:45 using cv out for modulation
37:30 eding automations
38:50 fx with cv in
39:40 round up
40:28 bonus: automation to fx
41:11 bye for now

Thanks for more videos! Waiting on mine to arrive and I will be making videos too!!

Nice set up ....

[@rhampton1914]

Wow this will go perfect with my SSP. I like the way you explained everything. Makes you just want to go out and buy one and experiment with the many options that has internally. Almost does too much. I'm still learning the SSP,,,, it may take me a while to venture onto a new piece of gear like this LOL

[@TheTechnobear]

its complex, but actually very simple to use...
of course, in these videos I want to show 'everything', since different users have different requirements...so perhaps comes across a bit more overwhelming when so many things are thrown at you in one go ;)

[@rhampton1914]

@@TheTechnobear if I had one of these I probably used the SSP in a completely different way

Nice thx for sharing 😎😍😎 geezy cya

[@doverbeachxyz]

Thank You for this demonstration. I'm Thinking to replace all my eurorack sequencers with hapax and a midi to cv, because I need more gates for drums. I love to have my session under control of one sequencer but I've never found something that fully satifies me. Lack of polyphony, lack of chance operations, fiddly user interface... every sequencer I've tried is limited in some ways.
Hapax seems to have everything I need.

I am doing this with fh2 and can recommend :)

This is really great! Thanks so much for sharing it. I'm struggling to get CV In into CVIn2 working, as you are doing at 26:26. I Clocking just fine, but just cant see any CV action. I don't suppose you have any tips?! Thanks much, P

[@TheTechnobear]

Hmm not sure … I’d check you don’t have cv in allocated to something else ( eg clock)
Also double check you have cv and gate in correct inputs… as iirc, gate is used to sample and hold the v-oct input. So having them wrong way round will mean you see nothing. Also check voltage range in settings.

[@Probbie]

@@TheTechnobear Okay; I'll check those things. I appreciate your response. P

[@mraymond77]

Thanks for sharing, Why are the top 3 rows constantly lit up while in step mode?

[@TheTechnobear]

because I set the project scale to pentatonic, so its shows all the intervals on one page = 5/8.
you can of course, use this not bound to a scale ... then all notes are present on the grid (as rows)

[@mraymond77]

@@TheTechnobear ah I see, thanks for the response!
