ISSUES/BUGS to track if fixed...:
1. Automap, at the very least in instrument racks is a must I think.
2. Drum rack parameters aren’t remembered across different drums.
3. If a parameter changes its name, you lose control of it (e.g., Meld, Echo)
4. Need to rename racks otherwise, ROTO control doesn’t identify the rack properly - though apparently that's a feature not a bug :)
5. Odd interactions between parameters (e.g. wavetable position and sub in Wavetable)
6. Clock sent out isn’t tracked properly by external devices in the first bar.
7. I didn’t test this with every Live device so there may be other issues!

Eurorack drum tips feat. Winter Plankton Dassbrum & Zaps


video upload by Tom Churchill

"This is the first of two videos that I’m making about drums in Eurorack. In them, I’m going to combine some demos of specific modules with more general patching tips and techniques.

In this one, I'm focusing on two modules from Winter Plankton - a collaboration between Winter Modular and Plankton Electronics. I’m using Dassbrum, which is their all-new kick drum module, and Zaps, which has been around for a couple of years now.

I met the guys behind these modules at Machina Bristronica last year, and they’re kindly sponsoring this video. But rather than just doing straight-up sound demos, I thought this would be a good opportunity to dive a bit deeper into various approaches to making beats in a modular synth context."

On cross-FM and fake polyphony | Performance breakdown with Francesco Gennari


video upload by Frap Tools

"In today's video, ‪@francescogennarimusic‬ walks us through the creative process behind his first study for modular synthesizer. It explores three main concepts:

1) Cross-FM with the Brenso oscillator: https://frap.tools/brenso
2) Fake polyphonic strings with the Verbos Multi Delay Processor
3) Creative uses of the mute function through the QSC Quad Stereo Channel and the Usta Sequencer. https://frap.tools/usta https://frap.tools/qsc"
