Patreon Q&A February 2021
Hi all!
It's time for another Q&A session :) Leave a comment here with your questions, and I'll do my best to answer them in the next Q&A video.
Thanks again so much!

Thanks Omri - sound advice! Pun intended =)
Let me know how it goes :)
Thanks! Yea - I watched as well as created your setup already. I understand it 75/25 :) Maybe I need to revisit it and keep practicing perhaps. I am still fresh to modular - and that will obviously take some time to understand. My goal early on however is to have that basic setup between A and VCV to be more fluid - so while I am learning VCV - I can also be creating sessions. I’ll keep reviewing your tutorials - eventually more will start to click! Thanks Omri!
I understand, yeah, it can be tricky to make everything work at the beginning. I recommend focusing on the modular aspect for now, maybe recording within VCV, and then, when the VST version will be available, you will know already what's going on and how to work with both worlds. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to help you out :)
Well now this feels more like a request than a standard question. 😬
Yeah, that's an idea for a whole video :) But I guess that a template is something that will depend on your setup. Did you see my Ableton VCV video? I show there a way to record and sync. You just have to set it up once with your setup and then use it as a template. I'm looking also for a stable way to send Midi and record it but I think that the best would be to wait for the VST version.
Well I’d like to learn how to feed midi from A to VCV - but also learn how to record audio to A from VCV. It would be nice to have a template both in A and VCV ready to fly! =)
So I am very new in using modular racks. I am aware and have viewed your integration of Ableton and VCV. However, I’m curious - is there a basic setup I could create - say 8 channels in Ableton where I can feed from VCV modules? I work a lot on Ableton and really thrilled at the idea of utilising VCV.
Do you mean audio or Midi as well?
You are already involved in so many things I don't know how you do it, but I wonder if you ever see yourself switching gears or focusing on other additional things like producing or mastering? Are there other places musically that you want to go that you are not already doing?
Thanks for this, Stephen, that's a great question. I already recorded the video though but I will add this to the next one :) Cheers!
Hi Omri. I started with Eurorack just over a Year ago and my Rack already changed quite a lot. I soon realized that my main Interest is in Granular Synthesis, Sound Design, Mangling and transforming Loops. I really love Modules like Morphagene, Arbhar, NebulaeV2, Panharmonium and my new Data Bender. And I'm looking forward to the new ADDAC Granular Sampler/Looper. How has your Rack changed since you got into Eurorack?
That's a nice question, thank you!
Do you have any new thoughts on setting up scenes/arranging in VCV? You posted a video a while back using Jooper and Jannacker, but i was curious if you've found any other ways to mute/unmute voices and setup scenes? Or if any new modules have come out since then that make it way easier to make a "song" instead of just a loop. In my patches recently i've been using Jooper to route volume CV to Mindmeld Mixmaster to setup "scenes" which works okay combined with a Phrase Sequencer to do scene select CV. But its a bit unintuitive. Do you usually export your tracks to a DAW to arrange them? Thanks
Nice one, thanks!
sorry, I meant "main clock" (or trigger generator - LFO) that is modulated so that in the end rhythmic variations are generated - you gave an example in the Self-Generating Patch Patron Walkthrough Video and I was curious to learn how to do this in VCV/HW; by just using LFO's (f.i. Batumi or Ochd) I could not obtain satisfying results
Oh, do you mean the one where the LFO is driving a sequencer and the sequencer is modulating the LFO? Something like this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Rfnc9TtF9U
jittery (irregular random) clocks in VCV vs Eurorack (and not Marbles ...)
What do you mean?
Hi Omri! Can you give some examples of self oscillating filters in VCV?
Sure :)
following ...
Hi Omri, maybe a dummy question. It does exist a way to load a sequencer module by a text file ?
I'm not so sure I understand...
