Thinking of Modules

I've been thinking about which modules I might have in my new Frac system.

I've already got the Blacet 2790 Mixer, plus a Lo Pass Gate PCB & Attenuverting Mixer PCB. Others I'm tempted by include:

FOH Plague Bearer
Blacet Midiverter
Blacet Micro LFO
Blacet Mini Wave
Blacet Dual VCA
MOTM Moog VCF
Synthasonic Phaser
Metalbox Digital Noise
Metalbox Psycho LFO

I can feel some Rackplanner sessions coming on...

1st FRAC module

So I've got my empty case for my second modular, but no power supply. I've got plans to DIY a couple of modules. In the meantime I saw a fairly cheap Blacet mixer module going on eBay, so I grabbed it! And it's arrived.

It's the small 2790 mixer module. Although I will be DIYing another mixer module, you can't have too many mixers. Plus it's handy to have a proper FRAC module around while I finish up my case.

I can't do anything with the module yet, but it's nice to know I've made a start on my new synth :-)

My Next Synth

I've got just enough room to squeeze in another small modular. Yay!

I can just about squeeze in one of the Ikea 'Rast' cases, which is the ideal size for two rows of FRAC format modules.

What's going in it? Who knows!

I've got an Attenuverting Mixer PCB from Fonik, and a LPG PCB from Thomas White, so it will be those two modules at least. I'll make it up as I go along, but I want it to be able to be used as a synth in it's own right, as well as being an extension to my current MOTM modular. I guess I'll have to make some patching panels to convert between the two systems. Oh yeah, I'll need a power supply and another MIDI-CV converter.
