GHOST IN THE MACHINE - An experimental Eurorack Module with many Controls but not much Control

- This Eurorack Module - GHOST IN THE MACHINE - is an experiment for me both in terms of audio output and usefulness.
It is meant to encourage the user to play around and get surprised.
I like to call it a module with many controls, but not much control.
I guess it might be something for the noise fraction in modular synthesis.
In any way, it is thought to cause a bit of fun without providing structure.
Curiosity is the key.
If you are interested in this black box, you can find details for building it on GitHub:
github.com/TOILmodular/GHOST_...
Enjoy.

Damn system is looking fine with that paneling
Thanks. I enjoyed especially doing the panel design.
Absolutely cool thing. I’m just riding through space hearing the sounds of this phenomenal box 🤩👏👍
Yeah, you can get lost in outer sound space with it
Brilliant idea and implementation! Love it! ❤
Thank you very much, MeeBilt.
Sounds lovely
Thank you. Seems like my concerns that this sounds a bit too weird don’t have any basis.
Wow, this is incredible!
Well done ! 👍
Thank you so much
Amazing. Maybe I'll try to build one.
Yes, go ahead. It’s great fun.
this is just beautiful!!! gonna get boards ordered ;-) thanks for sharing mate!!
That‘s great. I thought it might be too weird
@@TOILmodular boards arrived, getting parts and soon assemble... will make some videos and share ;-)
Great, looking forward to your video. One more thing. I found an issue with the central push button, which can easily be fixed. I did that already in GitHub. But I want to make sure that you have the right version. If the version number on your control board states 2.1, you are fine. If it is 2.0, then please check the following. On the upper right of the board you find a 33K resistor (the only 33K), and next to it a 100K resistor. If next to the 100K there is a 1N4148 diode, then that is incorrect. To fix it, just do not solder the diode, but bridge the connections of the diode with a wire (e.g. a cut-off resistor leg). Then things should work fine. Sorry for that mistake. I found out that with that diode the button might not trigger the knob shuffling.
i will definitely build this in the near future, but i have no idea where i'll be able to rack it. wild design, thank you for continuing to publish great DIY stuff
Yeah, quite a few HPs. But it gives you some space between the knobs. And still a bit smaller than using separate modules for it.
incredibly compelling design!
Thanks a lot!
This is SO awesome cool!!!
Thanks, mate
Masterpiece 🎛️
Thanks. Glad you like it
awesome
Thank you
Love it. Eurorack is all about experimentation and playing around to stumble upon interesting sounds and rhythms. This is right up my street.
Are those Mutable modules clones or just custom faceplates?
They are clones. Check out my other videos and my GitHub.
Really amazing ! Do you plan to build and sell some ready-to-plug modules ?
Thanks, but sorry, no plan for selling. It’s just DIY and sharing with the world.
@@TOILmodular I understand, thanks !
hey algorithm promote this. you need more upvotes!
Haha, greetings to the almighty algorithm
Sounds like a gemerald of a classic sci-fi spaceship
Got me! I found the thing glowing in a hole of molten rock in my backyard
looking for some help with my build. wondering if there is a way to contact the designer for assistance
Sure. You can either create an issue in the GitHub repository. Or send me an email. The address is in the channel info.
I see myself with just this module and a drum machine…be lost forever 🙂↔️
Yeah, I didn’t imagine before I finished the thing, but the ghost is really able to swallow a lot of your time, if you let it.
Want one!
Get it! But DIY only
@@TOILmodular sadly I cannot build myself due to nerve damage, can't handle a soldering iron any more.
I wish you luck with the kits though, it's a great idea and is well designed and implemented.
I see. Sorry to hear that. Maybe there’s some similar commercial stuff around. Or you can set up something like that with separate modules. Basically, the module interior does not contain any special units. Maybe besides the shuffling part.
@@TOILmodular thanks, yeah I can achieve similar results, may take a few connections but that's the fun of patching!
I want...yep, I would get real lost with this.
Yes, an addictive machine.
@@TOILmodular Do you ever sell your creations?
Sorry, I do not sell stuff. Would be too much to manage. This is all just about sharing my own 2 cents of DIY with the world, paying back a bit for all that I found from all these incredible DIY sources.
@@TOILmodular I can appreciate that.
Lol I use my whole system to make stuff like this one module is doing.
Right, that’s actually how I got some of the ideas for this thing
Can I play with it?!
If you don’t try to control it
sounds like a slowed down... effed up Benjolin.
Yeah, maybe. Like a blind or masked Benjolin
@@TOILmodular I dig it! I have no HP left. lol
The curse of Eurorack - lack of HP. No cure available. I am thinking about building my next case.
