A Seamless Bridge Between Eurorack, DAWs, and Grooveboxes – Introducing Bastl 1999


video upload by Bastl Instruments


"Bastl Neo Trinity brought the groovebox-style, gestural modulation workflow into Eurorack. Now, 1999 bridges the worlds of Eurorack, grooveboxes, and DAWs, opening up new possibilities for hybrid setups that are easy to build and fun to explore. Let Eurorack do what it does best. Let your groovebox or DAW do what it does best. Bring them together seamlessly with 1999 and get the best of both worlds.

Bridge to a Seamless setup

1999 is a TRS and USB MIDI expander for the Neo Trinity modulation hub, turning it into a powerful piece of studio infrastructure and making it easy to integrate with external MIDI gear. The classic TRS MIDI IN and OUT bring MIDI connectivity to your modular setup, and the MIDI IN is optically isolated to help prevent USB ground-loop noise. The USB-C port switches between DEVICE and HOST modes, allowing you to connect a wide range of USB MIDI devices and even power hosted devices directly from your modular system.

Chain of Command
With the new 2.0 firmware, Neo Trinity becomes a versatile MIDI-to-CV and CV-to-MIDI interface: Record CV/GATE sequences directly from MIDI input or from external CV signals connected to channels E and F. Control Neo Trinity parameters via MIDI CC, send knob movements to your external gear, or turn CV/GATE pairs into MIDI note output.
You can also chain more than one Neo Trinity with 1999 to create an ultimate Eurorack control system.

A COMPLETE TRILOGY
1999 is the latest (and final, for now) addition to our Matrix-themed Eurorack Control trilogy, joining our previous release, Déjà Vu – Double Fader Agent.

Now you have a chance to get all three modules in different bundles at a better price! Just click on the pictures below to get the ultimate Eurorack Control setup."

BASTL Instruments THYME+ PLUS Digital Tape Delay - Like new

via this Reverb listing

"At its core, THYME+ features 8 preset buttons that store custom effect settings of its flexible processing chain. The presets can be played manually like an instrument or sequenced by the onboard sequencer. Therefore, not only are the presets interesting, but also the transitions between them!

THYME+ represents an updated and innovated version of the iconic THYME released in 2017. Alongside improved connectivity, a better audio codec, and a few firmware tweaks and refinements, the new version’s hardware is enhanced with a compact metal enclosure, larger knobs, and a sleeker faceplate."

Slow Morning Ambient Session | Bastl Micro Granny & Elektron Digitone


video upload by Hideo Nakasako

"A slow and gentle ambient session for the morning.

For this session, I combined the warm, slightly worn textures of the Bastl Micro Granny with the clean and delicate tones of the Elektron Digitone.

The sounds slowly blend into each other, with subtle movement and small changes unfolding over time.

Nothing too busy — just texture, space, and a few sounds melting together.

I like how simple combinations of hardware can create a quiet atmosphere without needing too much.

If you have a peaceful morning, I hope you can take a little time to listen. ☕️

Recorded as a live hardware session.

Gear:
Bastl Micro Granny
Elektron Digitone"

Bastl Thyme+ Sound Demo (no talking): A digital tape machine!


video upload by Synth Codex

"In this video, I run a few different audio sources through the Thyme+ to show off its range: from subtle tape warmth and classic stereo delays to aggressive pitch modulation and rhythmic glitches. No talking, just raw audio directly from the unit.
The Bastl Thyme+ is a hardware audio processor built around a digital tape-delay engine with multiple reading heads and dedicated modulation sources named Robots that can automate almost every knob on the panel.

BASTL INSTRUMENTS KASTLE ARP DESKTOP MELODY SYNTH

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this listing

Additional Signal Sounds listings

"We say...
A pre-owned Bastl Instruments Kastle ARP in excellent condition. It comes with original packaging and accessories.

Manufacturer's description
Kastle ARP is a unique modular melody generator based on a quantized sine wave oscillator with a digital waveshaper.

The pitch selection employs straightforward concepts to unleash surprising intricacy. The quantized oscillator ensures it is always in tune, and its pitch can be selected using the NOTE and CHORD inputs. The decay envelope adds variation by occasionally skipping pitches before retriggering. The timbre control allows you to blend between noble sine waves and 8-bit chip-tunes.
