I am aiming to better familiarize myself with what´s available instead of aimlessly wondering (which is wonderful in it´s own, meditative way) while using Anushri´s drum section.

Could anyone please explain in a bit more detail how you would external sync to a DAW (Ableton if possible) ?

(I got as far as turning sequence speed knob to 0 to trigger external)

I wonder if the plexi enclosure has the location for these?

I am asking because I might consider upgrading mine.

Anybody has these and care to share a photo? Not just any power switch, I am curious about the “official” location!

• How to power and test them during development? A bench-top supply and signal generators? Too big and overkill. My rack loaded with precious stuff? No way I would let a scope probe shorting two pins impact them!
• What kind of setup to use for factory testing? A Doepfer mini case loaded with LFO/signal generators? Too expensive, and hard to operate.

I decided to find a DIY solution, and designed the following box.

It serves the following purposes:

• +/-12V and +5V power supply with euro connector.
• 4 signal generation channels dedicated to clocks (tempo, resolution, pulse width); gates (period, pulse duration); CV (several waveforms, sequences stepping through 1V/Oct octaves or scales); and audio (fixed note/frequency tone generator with various waveshapes).
• 2 signal acquisition channels, one is audio with frequency and note interval measurement (for V/Oct calibration) and the other is digital for clock testing/calibration (frequency/tempo measurement; and pulse width).

Maybe this might be useful to those of you building DIY modules and wanting a quick test/debugging setup less cumbersome than signal generators or your modular setup?

It won’t go farther than Board+programmed MCU+Mouser BOM with very minimal assistance provided (no building instructions etc). This might be useful to hardcore DIYers only anyway!

if i have to test it first the price will certainly move into the up+running region but i might as well do it. of course i have confidence in my soldering, i just want to let them go, so if anyone dares to take the ‘risk’ and take a finished device for the price less than the parts, now is the time.

I was thinking if there is any interest in this kind of enclosures?
Not for the slim ones like on the picture but for the KIT that MI is selling- square buttons, on board connectors and thicker profile.

I hope to keep the price near 50-60 EUR, depends on amount of interest.

Should I design the enclosure for MI Kit?

PreenFM was build by me from a kit without any issues.

Both in 100% working condition.
i am based in germany.

i’ll add pictures and figure out the shipping conditions for EU/International tomorrow.

please PM me if you are interested or mail at paul (Ä) h3nninger {dot} de

[edit:]

just took a quick picture:

display contrast looks a bit strange in the picture, but it is easy to read in real live

shipping inside germany included, eu/international on request.

I an selling one of my 2 Renes. It is the white one pictured. Price is $450. USD (shipped to US only) +3% if you don’t like the “personal” option. It is in perfect shape and comes with screws and ribbon cable.

I may consider a partial trade for a Strymon blueSky and $200.

Thanks for looking everyone! I’m so excited for MI eurorack!

I’m happy to announce that i will be able to Demo all of Mutable Instruments currently available Eurorack Modules alongside some of my own creations

Anyone else is attending the Show? Any fellow Shruthizens™ to form a proper MI Away Team??

BTW, you will be able to follow the GearOcalypse™ live via my Flickr Photostream

Edit:
Oh, and as Fr@nk pointed out right, access is only with a Modular Synth. No Modular, no Entry! No, a iMS20 is no Modular….

I would like to formally express my thanks to the Olivier Gillert and his Shruthi-Team.

One year ago I started to develop my Stereo Synthesizer “Wave 1”. At the beginning of the 90s i want building a digital synthesizer.
My first project was a 8Bit soundsampler from DOEPFER Musikelektronik GmbH in germany. My next step was a digital
synthesizer on the basis of a digital sound chip SAM9203 from dream company. But I could not finish the project, because
my development tools was not not professional enough.

Now I have found many good ideas and tools for the construction of a synthesizer on the internet. Great help was the hardware
of opichenettes shruthi-synthesizers. My “WAVE 1” Synth is a Stereo-Version of an Hybrid-Synthesizer and have two analog Filtes (SSM2044) and
VCA-Chips (SSM2164). For sound editing is a small built-in touch-scree.

On yotube you can watch and listen to my first sound test. Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwUUhr8rD48

I will disassemble the Ambika later on and see if I can’t trace the issue with my multimeter, but from the way the filters sound, one of the SVF cards is lacking a proper low pass filter (it actually kind of sounds like the high pass filter is acting like a low pass filter).

Please listen to https://soundcloud.com/portervance/ambika-svf-filter-issue

The first 3 samples are SVF card #1, opening up the LP, BP, and HP filters then bringing them back down to 0. The second 3 samples are SVF card #2 (the one that has issues) doing the same order of filters. The last 2 samples are just a comparison of SVF #1 LP filter and SVF #2 LP filter. What’s going on here?

I think this might be the first completed DIY MidiALF, or at least the first I know of that Pete from Midisizer didn’t build himself. I think it is about as good a match for a Shruthi as there is on this world, surely equally great with any other Synths though as well. Build went well, and if you build one, I’m sure yours will go well too so long as you remember that LCD screens should face toward you and not toward inside of the case, and solder your header accordingly… All’s well that ends well ;)

Who else is working on one?

All of these come from a smoke free environment, have neevr been gigged out and all have nearly no use. I’ve just gotten way into debt getting overexcited building things. All of these items are for US shipping only right now as I’m not sure how dealing with customs would work.

Did it turn out just as I planned? Of course not! I’m okay with it ‘though, just need to add a bottom at some point and the power switch. Amazingly, when I plugged the XT piece in, it actually worked!

I got the boards and the case, very nice! However, some mailman wank (I assume) put something very heavy on the boards, smashed the IC’s and warped the boards, but I was able to straighten the pins (took a while though). The warped boards are going to be fine, was just a little harder to get the screws to line up. Any help would be great! Love this stuff…

I’am a glad Anushri user but face a problem with the sync to midi clock. I would like to use the arpeggiator and the drum sequencer in sync with my other machines using midi clock at 24 ppqn.

I tried sending midi clock and start/stop messages from my DAW and also from an Electribe MX and have always the result that the sequencer of Anushri is running with the same speed but there is a noticable delay between the two. It’s not half a second but big enough to destroy the groove and to hear the timing difference.

Does some here has similar issues or could it be that I misconfigured something?

Here is a small demo using the Slap patch. The chirps are very faint but they are there. https://soundcloud.com/portervance/ambika-filter-chirp

I haven’t experienced this issue with my other gear before so that’s why I ask.

Thanks in advance

1) I’d like to sell one of my Shruthis with the SSM2044 filter.

Cosmetically it looks almost new and I’ve performed a little mod according to a hint by fcd72. As you can see I’ve installed some LEDs in each corner which light up continiously and that can be controlled via the CV in the modulation menu. I can remove them if you wish.
I can add a power supply if you need one.
