Syncing with hardware and Eurorack to the DAW using the Circuit Happy Missing Link ML:2m
Sorry for the dead pixel in my camera. Your screen is fine lol. Sensor cleaning is no longer fixing the issue.
The Circuit Happy Missing Link series of products is awesome for syncing hardware and eurorack to the DAW for any application. In this video, we pull up a track that I'm working on in Bitiwg and then sync up the TT-303 and the Eurorack system with the ML:2m and make some loops to put on top of it.
I am happy to do modular / music production / performance lessons! Hit me up at AlexAndersonMakesMusic@gmail.com to inquire!

USB Streaming and Polyend Play plus for full control over all tracks in a live performance

In this one, we're going to cover how I plan to use the 3DVCA for eurorack live performances, which is mixing 6 inputs (3 stereo pairs) down to one stereo feed that goes into an Overseer filter.

Getting spacy with a new fave, the 3DVCA from Mystic Circuits. Quadraphonic sound is all the rage right now but there is a lack of gear focused on making that easy to do. In addition to it's plethora of uses, the 3DVCA is great for 4 vector panning and mixing. In this video we showcase this ability by using two WMD Overseer filters to place the same sound into different ends of the spectrum and...

    I use the standalone Missing Link Junior. It has been an incredible game changer for me! Syncing Ableton has become incredibly easy. I do almost exclusively Eurorack recording and do a few effects in Ableton, or I might re-track record a lead, bassline, or drums. It makes my jam sessions super easy to turn into a finished track. I love it!

    This reminds me... I gotta sell my Play. The workflow is just terrible. They should at least give you the option of making it work like a normal sequencer where each lane remembers the last note/sample you used. That nice big grid is useless because their implementation is slower than everybody else's single-row interface. Whenever you want to edit a row you need to either manually dial in the sample/channel/instrument again or else you need to long-press a step on the row to copy it into the global buffer, and if you don't hold it long enough you'll just erase the note. It's an insane waste of what could've been a great sequencer. And don't even try using it with an external keyboard. It's so bad.
