2023 And Onwards: Eurorack Invasion

Things kinda got out of hand. Now I’ve got enough Eurorack modules to keep me learning for years. We all know, though, that there will be more, but I’m seriously trying to cut down. Also sold a lot of stuff I haven’t used, so that’s good. Still have the studio split in two, with the […]

IK Multimedia ARC Studio [2024 – ]

Corrects, or I like to say “standardises”, the frequency response of my monitors. Few things are game changers, this one is. It essentially makes the music sound the way it should. You calibrate it by making it listen to your monitor setup from 21 different spots around where your head is where you are listening, […]

Behringer Kobol Expander [2024 – ]

Another Behringer vintage synth clone, and these are so dirt cheap it boggles the mind. Behringer really delivers, these things pack such a punch for the price it’s amazing, and they are constantly pumping out new ones.

Behringer B1200D Pro and B208D BK [2024 – ]

We had had a couple of live gigs at the office, and looked like there were going to be more. After one gig, I placed the Genelec subwoofer on a table, and the table surface just flipped around and the sub dropped to the floor and got a small dent. The horror, the horror. So […]

Cre8audio NiftyKEYZ [2023 – ]

Thought this might earn a special mention, although I don’t list Eurorack related items here. It’s a really nice Eurorack enclosure with a keyboard with support for quadrophonic sound (depending on how you patch, of course) as a bonus. It features an arpeggiator, LFO, keyboard transpose and keyboard split, and is as such a compact […]

2022 – Settling Down Again

Time to move, even 150 meters appears to be quite the chore. Double the floor space, but the studio still didn’t get its own room. This time I actually opted for a split studio, half of the stuff in the livingroom and the other half in the bedroom. The livingroom has the modular stuff, and […]

Behringer Euro Modules

Behringer came out with a number of cheap modules, so here we go. “Roland” and “ARP 2500” in nice TipTop enclosures. The semi-portability makes this perfect for, say, patching in bed.

Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 [2021 – ]

Oh no I didn’t…? Yep, I did… Rev 4, to be exact. There it is, with its pal. I didn’t actually get two; the first one had a broken USB chip, or something, so I returned it and got another one, but not in that order. Here it is with its other pal.

Mooringer: 2020 – 2021

First time in many years I’ve bought anything new. Moog and Behringer more or less jumped me. 4 of the first and 6 of the latter plus the new ARP Odyssey meant some rearranging had to happen. I expanded the Jasper’s rack to stand partially on my desk, and crammed as many keyboards on top […]
