Re: This world is dominated by the aliens
I've been watching some modular stuff on YT. Looks like fun to play with but I doubt it'd fit at all with how I work. Could maybe spark the odd idea for a track, but it seems too open-ended and directionless for my tastes/abilities. I like to be able to pick a pre-set and start playing right away. I saw a video a few days ago (think it might have been a Hainbach one) where he was messing on de-tuning oscillators and... I dunno, fucking about with noise gates or summat to produce this really basic two-note sequence at half-beat intervals and it just struck me that it's a lot of work tweaking the routing and whatnot just to produce something so musically basic, it honestly wouldn't even occur to me to use it. Like I say, it might be useful for shaking up my usual approach to writing - and to that end, I did actually download that VCV virtual rack plugin, though I couldn't actually get it working - will have to have another go when I get a new comp.... but it is just fundamentally at odds with what I do. Seems like an odd thing to say, but I do basically just operate within a pop music framework, rather than that avant garde shit.Lasagna Pirate wrote: Mon Jan 18, 2021 11:20 pm 0CA7FEAF-8C31-4073-8FCE-92B323B0C506.jpeg
Here is the core of my ‘modular’ stuff.
There’s some modules that aren’t racked, I’ve been delaying ordering a larger rig.
I also have a Matrix Brute and miniBrute 2s in boxes. And about a dozen various CV desktop synths.

Well yeah, the whole purpose of Reason was to introduce a virtual rack with CV (control voltage). A much less space taking solution to do modular stuff. And as now (Reason 11) is also a VST, you can use it inside another DAW.

Also - it also works for the Logic Pro too (AU) and Pro Tools (AAX).

@Dolly.
If you think about it.... all synths are modular at their core.

Re: This world is dominated by the aliens
That seems to be the norm. Though I have not tried to do it yet, I could use FL Studio inside Logic. I’m thinking about doing it, so I can get that great FL mastering tool called Sound Goodizer!
