Behringer 960 Sequential Controller with Mutable Instruments Plaits Dream team jammin with Penishead 

this is as good at demonstrating Plaits as it is the 960

Thank you for this nice feedback

Damned, this is hard! But that’s the way it goes. For me the same

Thank you

Thanx

chance McDermott

hey thank you so much for the feedback. some day perhaps this will happen. But at the moment I feel good that I not go viral.

Yes, it is! -)

Yes, it obviously happend. Was not my manner but it happend. 😀

Thanks man

No not really.

Do you mean, have a silent step ? - A rest ? - Yes, but you need to use the sequential switch 962 and patch it so it switches from the 1st switch to its 2nd switch at the moment of your required rest, then back to the 1st rest again. It's tricky and isn't entirely silent as the decay of the previous step (generated by the VCA) can overlap into the rest step. I'm trying to find a better way of doing it.

@@and7barton Cheers a lot of hp to get there though which won't work with muh 2 x 84hp setup. Shame with Berhinger having some great stuff but takes up so much space. Love the mixer and output module but then I habe this whole eq section I could do without. I just got their Maths clone and Space FX. Just perfect for what I needed.

What? You have the Abacus module from Behringer in your rack right now? From Where do you bought it?

@@EarJuice the magic of Modular’s is the fact you can tailor-make your system any way you like. I’ve got three 960s now, and six 112 dual VCOs (12 oscillators). Also, three clock modules so I can drive the 960s separately if wanted, or in sync from one clock. This is the third modular I’ve put together. The first two were orientated towards music …. Mostly Berlin style. This one is more of a “sound laboratory” for exploring sounds, though it still could be used for making music …. Plus the sheer coolness of owning an impressive modular.

Thank you

Yes, I think so too

@@electrollerball fuckin best part :D

Oh yeah!!!

Yes, that’s correct! I use here clock and the clock triggers the gate in the plaits.

There is just a kick drum. All the rest is from plaits. Really

@@penishead_official thank you, shame I was hoping it was all Plaits as I’m looking to make a neat drum machine like that

@@Jin-Hu come on you need just a kick drum and all rules

@@penishead_official hmm I could just add a simple kick module 🤔

The 960 is the tuning of another module. It sends CV signal in this case it goes to a pitch input or 1v/oct. input on plaits. With another row you make a gate out to trigger the plaits. But this works not with every step of the 8 steps. But that’s another topic. But to make a sequence with pitch and Gate it is enough. So the 3 rows of 8 steps generate a voltage what can used different on other kind of modules. So it is on you. For eh you can use the third row to send cv to the model in on Plaits. Then this cv changes the engine on plaits which you can see in my video.

@@penishead_official Thank you for the reply and information- much appreciated, makes sense now-,I'm a complete noob to Eurorack world , cheers

Yes that’s correct. But it works if you leave one step without any gate.

The kick has nothing to do with the other Audio signals. There are many other modules involved like mixer and sidechain conpressor. So its totally a full setup in my rack.

Doepfer Dark Time?!

Come on?! The 960 works with all modules. It’s a sequencer that generates voltages. So you can use it for all kind of modules.

@@penishead_official Ok, thx.

Well, you need a clock distribution system in your rack. But it’s easy. The 960 is just normal syncable. Hey it’s a sequencer. That’s a must have. And if you have another sequencer like for drums than you have synced beat and instruments.

John Paul Patton i don’t think the DRM has any CV in’s, right?

@@spoookytooth There's a version of the DRM III that has cv triggers for each drum voice. A lot of people use the individual cv outs on the drum sequencer of the Beatstep Pro with it, too.

@@johnpaulpatton9786 oh I see. Yes,you are absolutely correct. My confusion was about the terminology.. cv vs. gate/trigger

Oh, I think its one engine from the plaits. That's just random what happens.

he's using his real name

Blame Mr and Mrs penishead the elder, they changed their name after WW2 from the rather unfortunate Goebbels... :P

I don‘t have a 182 but hey it’s so easy to combination the two modules. Plaits is always a good friend of any sequencer if you use the model IN with a CV Pattern

No quantization at all. Just by ears (which I do not have) 😅 its just raw plaits and the 960

@@penishead_official Nice work 👍

Sure: external in!

Yes, better with the 1027

@@penishead_official thx! You have an amazing channel!

@@MrThegodhimself I‘ll try and learn every day. Thank you

So I am thinking to start my modular with Brains and 1027 and 1050 for a mixer for a different instruments (already have neutron and modD, Crave) would 1050 be a good mixer and do I need an end VCO to hear Brains sequenced by 1027?

@@MrThegodhimself no, for your purpose it’s not the right one. It‘s only my opinion. It’s a little bit different than a usual audio mixer.

Clock comes from other modules, I suggest to use a MIDI/CV Module to convert Midi Clock to CV Gate or Trigger and put into Timing of 960.

I think you need any special gear between to sync them both. I do not know exactly but some new audiointerface can give out CV Voltages, or you need a midi to CV clock converter.

@@penishead_official ok brilliant. would something like the beatstep work? it has CV gate out and CV out..

@@loidis9347 yes

@@penishead_official cool. I’m talking about the beat step though, not the beat step pro. I can afford the beatstep but won’t get it if it’s not going to work with sequential.. so you are sure it will work? Thanks :)

@@loidis9347 but please read the manual of the beatstep carefully. I think this should work if it has this conversion in real time

Yes, you can....

@@penishead_official I mean yeah but the synths sound too loud in comparison, reach a balance ;p by the way, cool videos, I have a plaits and is always interesting to watch and hear what other people are doing with it

@@davidpinto1195 ok, I will balance it better the next time. Thank you for the info

No Midi at all.
