A 5 minute modular synth performance on the Divkid Output Bus.

Weirdly Ben has made almost exactly the module I need right now, as I'm building a modular mixer in my latest live system, and I need to sum and 'vibe up' the Roland TR-8. My pal Ben ‪@DivKid‬ sent me one for free - so here's me starting to use it! (Video update on this case coming soon!) 🙌

    YES MATE!! Banging mini rave. I'm sure channel 5 will be knocking on your door for the body cam series. I'm sure there's an upcoming next series of Police, Camera, Modular Action.

    It's a great idea to be able to pull stuff together, including non modular stuff, without an external mixer. I've used the stereo chain input on my blue lantern mixer for similar, mixing my digitone in with the euro stuff. I think it's euro level though so I feed it with the headphone output and adjust the volume that way.

    Ironically, I've built a whole mixer stage [stereo] for my modular using Befaco modules [STMIX/OUT/InAmp]. Although Ben's is compact, I need a level control on each input. However, form factor wise this is a very interesting module. Also, the TR-8S is the best drum machine ever made! Emulations are tighter than the TR-8, and adding samples clinched it. Linndrum samples being a fav. TBH, it's all wildly subjective. :D While I'm at it, I loved your Disting vid.

    The Output Bus is sort of compressing and driving it quite significantly - doesn’t sound like that on its own! Good drive always helps (as it does on the original Roland’s!!)

    @@mylarmelodiesI actually only use it to have an easy quick EQ and some compression, which gives me bit of high and low boost I like. I use it as a 'sweetener' only. I do like it to also have it on my headphones, so for me I miss this 'insert' before the final mix on the output bus.

    To be fair I’ve never owned a TR8S (and it’s all personal) so take such inflammatory statements with a pinch of salt - but it’s all about immediacy. Having 808/909/707/606/727 all in one box with faders is bonkers IMHO.
