Proverbial KRELL Patch. Generative Modular.
video upload by Robert Shipe
"All credit goes to Mr. Todd Barton and Mr. Tony Rolando for their wonderful vids/tutorials on how to create this cool patch. I learned more about modulate-able/looping EGs/Slope Generators/Function Generators from this patch than anything else I've done. I like to throw together some Krell at least twice a year. If you haven't tried it please check out these videos below and give it a shot!"

Mutable Instruments Tribute Jam...
video upload by Cables For Clouds
"Mutable Instruments was a game changer in eurorack. MI modules inspired many musicians such as myself in ways I never thought imaginable. Music i never thought Id make is because of mutable instruments.
Goodbye Mutable Instruments.
Thanks for helping me broaden my music capabilities.
Mutable Instruments Modules used in this video:
Mutable Instruments Rings
Mutable Instruments Plaits
Mutable Instruments Elements
Mutable Instruments Tides
Mutable Instruments Clouds
Mutable Instruments Braids"
Mutable Instruments' founder, Émilie Gillet, recently announced the following:
“I won’t design new modules and production is progressively stopping. Modules are marked as discontinued when the last shipment is sent to dealers. I can’t predict when it happens as it depends on how fast a batch is made, and how fast it gets sold. It might happen in a week, in a month or in a quarter. There is no easter egg, no plot twist, no teaser.”

Taking our MIDI gear offgrid: Stolperbeats and Digitone
video upload by Making Sound Machines
"Finished a chilled weekend with a nice Sunday evening jam! Stolperbeats is heard here MIDI sequencing Elektron's Digitone 4 voice FM synth, a secret Making Sound Machines Eurorack prototype called Percussive Maintenance as well as Fred's Lab's cheeky little paraphonic voice called Zekit. If you haven't already, go check out the DIY workshops at Superbooth 2022 - where you can actually build a Zekit yourself!
Stolperbeats, roughly translating to 'beats tripping over themselves', is a drum trigger sequencer designed to create shuffled beats influenced by artists like Flying Lotus, Hiatus Kaiyote and J Dilla. We've always been fascinated by taking our beats offgrid to give them more fluidity and life. This module allows you to easily dial in and seamlessly switch between all the shuffle, feeling and groove we would, in the past, painstakingly nudge together in a DAW.
Stolperbeats' timing is set to Clave, a special mode where the accents in a 3:3:2 rhythm are fixed "on time" and the rest of the notes shuffle around that. The idea came when we chopped up some Modeselektor beats and started to add swing to them.
The Elektron Digitone acts as a sound module here, receiving Stolperbeats' triggers as MIDI notes - channel, pitch, velocity and note length can be adjusted per track to map to any MIDI capable drum machine or synth. The MIDI is split using the incredibly handy Meeblip cubit to target an extra bass voice on Fred's Lab Zekit. Of course, you can still patch the triggers into Eurorack at the same time, so we whipped out our Percussive Maintenance drum voice to add a kick and some hihats.
While Digitone's internal sequencer is not running in this sketch, Stolperbeats still sends a MIDI clock signal so the tempo synchronizes across the two machines. Enrica uses the built-in keys to live-transpose one of the tracks and play a shuffled melody on top of the sketch. We're very excited about Elektron 's new Syntakt by the way, that looks like a perfect match for Stolperbeats."
