May Q&A session
Hi everyone!
I hope you're doing well. It's time for another Q&A session :) Please let me know if you have any questions, and I will do my best to try and answer them in the next Q&A video.
I want to mention the Discord challenge again. Every month we have a challenge on the Patreon Discord so make sure to come and join us there. There are also prizes :)

How has your experience been with the Keystep Pro? I have seen your video using it with VCV. Curious if two years later does it still satisfy and excite you. Gracias
Hi Omri! Thanks again for everything you do! With Mutable Instruments stopping production of physical modules, what in your opinion were the most unique and essential modules Mutable instruments created? We are so lucky for them being open source and available in VCV!
Hi Omri. A) Can you tell us what are great combo's for ambient (drones). I use the well known combo marbles/rings clouds. B) How can you make a deep wide ambient drone? C) there is a new Befaco pan module "Stereo Strip', soon in VCV I hope. Can you tell/learn us more about panning?
Howdy Omri! I'd love to see you attempt to re-create Adam Jones (from Tool) synth sounds, like on the song Reflection (synth comes in around the 42 second mark) in VCV. I believe he's using an Access Virus C synth (that he plays with his foot via a midi controller while he also plays the guitar part). I've gotten close to the sound and like you said every attempt is a learning experience, but I'd love to see your take on it! Cheers!
Hi Omri! I was wondering, you've mentioned Krell a number of times when talking about sound design and I'm curious what that refers to. The only Krell I know of is the extinct species in the film "Forbidden Planet" (a film credited with being one of the first to use an all electronic score years before the invention of the Moog.)
I was wondering if you could create a good VCV Rack 2 Mastering Chain patch that they would be willing to share with me? I’m running a bunch of elektron gear into my Octatrack and then going into Bitwig and was hoping to use vcv rack as a mastering chain via vst if you know what I mean…. I’ve seen a lot of people buy elektron analog heat as final part of their chain but I would love to a live the $800usd :)
As a mastering engineer, I would say that a limiter, compressor and EQ, you'd be far enough but my main recommendation would be to NOT master as you work in VCV. You want to dedicate your VCV session to music making and do mastering on another platform. There are so many reasons why you don't want to blur the lines and I don't want to step over Omri's Q&A but I felt I needed to say something ;)
Do you ever have issues with gain staging audio in hardware modular? If so, how do you manage?
Hey Omri! I'm thinking about processing electric guitar in VCV. Do you have any useful tips regarding that? At the moment, I don't even have a proper audio interface so if you could recommend a cheaper one for this task ,i'd be happy. Also, is there a way to turn audio into pitch cv? That would be rad. Thanks and have a nice month, cheers!
Hi Omri. I'm about to buy my first hardware modules, and i was thinking about ways to combine hardware and VCV. What are some of your favorite ways? (for context, i have a Behringer neutron, and buying plaits, some lfo's, a mixer and a dual vca, and use a keystep pro for sequencing). Cheers!
Hey Omri, would you please explain with a few exaggerate examples of what for you a "mud" and a "clash" sounds and how to solve it ? (i prefer without one sound "ducking" in side chaining) Thank you very much, Cheers!
