July Patreon Q&A

Hello Omri, I love your videos, I discovered and really learned the modular with you so thank you very much <3 A few days ago I tried to recreate Rob Hordijk's Blippoo Box using Rungler, the results are cool and weird but I was curious to see your version. Also how do you use the modules of HetrickCV in general? Especially those around chaos, scanner, feedback sine... It could be nice to have some of your explanations on certain, maybe some video series ;)

If this reply isn't too late, I've been really curious if there's an ideal but not-yet-existing module or feature you wish you had. Like, you're making a patch, or working on a piece, and you think, "I want an X to be able to Y, and no module does exactly that yet." I completely agree that constraints are the doorways to creation -- so working with the modules others have made, and accepting them as they are, is a huge amount of the fun -- but sometimes maybe there's a time when you dream of a module feature that doesn't exist in reality yet... If so, what would that module/feature be?

Hi Omri, is it possible to create surround sounds (quadrophonic) in VCV Rack ? That would be awesome ;-) Thanks...

I've been looking to make a good bass like the 303 preferably with as few modules as possible, any ideas. UPDATE- scratch that I've found there is a 303 in VCV already Bacon Music Open 303

Hi Omri, let's say i want to make a Techno song (kick, bass, melody, percussion) what are for you the most productive free/payed native VCV modules? I want to make a decent good mapped midi controller (faderfox UC4 and NI S62) setup but i don't want to spend time to check the Walhalla of modules in VCV. I rather want to spend my time more on creating than experimenting. Nevertheless your amazing tutorial video's and presets are helping a lot, thank you! I want to separate the wheat from the chaff in the VCV library if you know what i mean? Cheers.

Hi Omri, greetings from the Pyrenees! I would interested to see some different approaches on how to vary note lengths within a given sequence. In DAW land you just drag the box and make it longer on the piano roll. To add context, I listen to lots of reggae and am experimenting in VCV with dub style basslines. One more question, or request.... I would be fascinated to see a VCV build replicating some of the Macbeth modules, I know Collin Benders uses the oscillators but it seems there is a whole Macbeth ecosphere out there for those who can afford such things!

Hi omri! Do you have any recommendations for free granular modules in vcv besides clouds and supercell? (Already hoping to check out path set soon)

hello omri - i saw this video recently https://youtu.be/hnmkdGsA0jA and found it incredible to use the clock bpm like this. unfortunately the patch doesn’t work in vcv2 and the author doesn’t have the time to adapt it (i asked him). can you either suggest alternative modules to make the patch work in vcv2, or just explain how/why this works !? thanks, tony

What modules and techniques are recommended for arranging? The more ideas the better. I don’t mind guiding it in real time but would also like a fully automated patch sometimes but a creative arrangement for sure. Thanks !

Hi! I'd love you to have a look at the song Ohnesarg by Vilod and listen to the sound design in there. Some ideas on how to patch that would be superb.

And if that's been done - I like to use dialogue and vocal samples sometimes - what would be the best module for using vocal samples with a view to glitching and adding effects etc further down the patch chain

I don't know if this would be possible or if anyone else would be interested but it would be really good if now and again you could set a task - For instance give us a set amount of modules that we have to make something as interesting as possible or just general stuff that would test our knowledge and get our creative juices flowing - Not that you don't already and you may have done this before but I thought I would ask - Cheers Gerald

Hi Omri! Is there any good module for making moog-like bass sounds together with some cool module filters?

Please make video about using vcv drum machine

Hi Omri, is there a module that automates the mixer ie. midi mixer in miRack

Tips for turning very bloopy sounding voices into something more organic sounding? Im guessing a function of waveform/layering and envelope shaping

Hi Omri, I have the following question: Would it be possible to run more than one instance of VCV Rack or VCV Rack and other soft synths together and control (mix) them similar to the insane million dollar setup of KEBU, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH2guTTyX8s and using that for a live performance, just using cheap keyboards (controllers) for each synth...???? That would be outstanding...Thank you...
