Thank you! This is the first of dozens and dozens of eurorack videos where someone actually EXPLAINS the module and shows where you plug stuff in. It is SO frustrating that 9 out of 10 videos like this don't actually SHOW how you use it. Thank you thank you thank you!
Thank you very much…glad you like the video and that it was helpful!! I felt the same way…none of the videos really showed what these modules actually do by themselves
I consider this a historic episode....one of the very few that explored (or started to explore) a specific module in the same way guitar pedals have been explored for years now. This is I believe the future, but for it to take off, a new type of pedal board with a Eurorack back must be developed. I had to design one for myself to slowly start experimenting. With or without Eurorack though, Pedals should start "talking" to each other, for new textures and timbres to manifest. This I believe, is the distant future because of its simplicity, but before we go there and pedal builders start universally puting CV inputs on their pedals, we will have to pass through Eurorack pedalboards for guitar.
I think you can get pedal control modules. Like a control module with an external pedal attachment, so you can control cv hands-free. I think solo modular guitar is somewhat more practical in a recording setting than a live setting, just because turning knobs is such an important part of modular, and pedals are so convenient for stage performances
@@downhill2k013 Yes your right, there are pedal control modules (you mean modular stuff, right?) that you can use with pedals without CV inputs and only have a regular expression input. But it's not the same as having pedals with multiple CV inputs and outputs. My point was that if now mostly we need some Eurorack grear close to the pedalboard to hook them with some of the few pedals that have CV inputs, (this is what I am doing now anyway with a pedalboard I built myself) I think in the future this will be done only with the pedals. Things I think move towards simplicity. As for your comment about studio recordings, I think things evolve naturaly from the studio towards Live settings. People want to recreate Live what they did in the studio...right?
That was fun! There were some pretty good Martin Hannett-y, post-punky tones in there. It's funny how there's so little love for rack gear these days, when so much recorded guitar music was so heavily flavored by outboard rack gear.
You could do a special episode with guitar pedals that have CV inputs and outputs, as the probable future of guitar pedals....we are talking about the post Eurorack future. I could be wrong of course but it's a super fun thought I think.
I would like to see what can be done with the Eudemonia mixer and the outputs of the different delays. There certainly are a lot of possibilities with the mixing and matching of different modules and patching possibilities. I can see this opening up a lot of sound design choices that a guitarist has to choose from. Once you get some things telling other things to behave a certain way there should be some If you do a review of the Dreadbox Raindrops pedal when it comes out it will be interesting to hear any differences.
Thanks for the education on the Eurorack gear, all great stuff. You should checkout a new UK pedal company called Intensive Care Audio, really well made pedals with a unique brand design of pedals come supplied in medical bags, checkout the Vena Cava Distortion filter with Ring Mod, a crazy filtering Distortion pedal that does insane sounds and also the newly released Death Drive High Gain Distortion which has some great controls that change parameters, a very different new range of effect pedals, worth checking out.
Eurorack very in-depth stuff I guess guitar needs to find a new direction and this could be it believe that popularity of Eurorack is growing all the time…. Seems to be no limits in ideas and creativity for the future music! Interesting video look forward to seeing the next instalment thanks both!🙂
You guys should really consider to read manuals or watch other videos about the modules you reviews. A lot of mistakes about this.. Guitars should be plugged in the upper input, that is the one dedicated to line level signals (down is for eurorack level, much higher). There are two different kind of feedback (the full is not the “continuing” of the first one): 1/3 is the feedback from the first delay stage only, the full is the classic feedback. The plugs 1/3 and 2/3 are not for “only wet” signal. They’re output from only first and second delay stage, and volume is lower because they are not eurorack level, and are intended to be more like modulators, as intended by the manufacturer. Enjoy anyway, but please don’t share confusing informations. Cheers

Yes, oh yes!!! Been waiting for the fusion of guitar and modular for a long time! Excited by this! Keep it up!
We just filmed a couple more videos today...and more modules are arriving too!
great lovely soudscapes guys!

super fun awesome first 8 minutes to get to the delay.
That’s why it’s all time stamped

Yeah it’s one massive rabbit hole...but it’s great fun and like you said...pretty much limitless
