On man, I still really want a Sloth. I wish I could find room for a Triple Sloth, but I don't even know where I'd put a single one

Ugh I want that Rebel Tech Kronos but Modular Addict still ain't stockin em. If I end up buying the Turing Machine backpacks from Thonk I'll probably get that as well.

"This is a very simple to build chaos module that can be built in 2 ways: slow or VERY slow. Slow means 1 cycle every 15 seconds, VERY slow is 1 cycle every 15 minutes."

http://nonlinearcircuits.blogspot.com.a ... chaos.html

This would be the "VERY slow" variant... :excellent: Primarily picked it up to drive the Survey on Cold Mac, though I'm sure I'll find other uses for it...

I got the Chronos as a demo unit from Perfect Circuit, too good of a deal to pass up!

There's actually three ways for the Sloth now: slow, very slow, and glacial. There was a mod with huge caps that they ended up calling the Stasis Sloth. I think it's one cycle every 2.5 hours or something.

I don't know why, but it's really funny to see such a small PCB with such huge capacitors.

Yeah, those capacitors giant. They're even bigger than the knobs (TWSS?)

Also, that package arrived today :!!!:
Kind of weird barely getting any tracking updates, but whatever, it's here.
And after a few hours of modular tetris, it's finally together:

Now, I just need to sell my second Sprott and Dunst, and the RF Nomad and then I can buy a Basimilus Iteritas Alter and Knight's Gallop when they're released. Then it will be complete....

....for now

There's a Make Noise power supply inside too. Top two rows and a few modules on the third row are on it. The bottom row and the rest of the third row are on the uZeus

Edit: fever's post disappeared...
Fever, that looks like a really sweet set up. Pretty much every module in there is on my gas list. I really love the Mannequin module (even though I don't have any).

I managed to sell the Dunst already and am trading the Sprott for a Chronoblob and EMW Echo Delay tomorrow. Not really sure where I'm going to fit those into my plan, but I have been feeling like I need more delays

Yeah sorry :facepalm: meant to edit, accidentally deleted, then had to run out...

Anyway, heading toward something like this... though I feel like I might not gain so much from the Blinds, so maybe I should just get a mixer of some sort (Scan and Pan :drool:) that'd leave me with 4U instead of 6... I keep wanting to get a Chronoblob or Dub Jr Mk2 but then I remember that I've got the SBG to bring in my Space Echo / Tonal Recall / RRR / etc...

Oh and the Mannequins stuff is great! Just Friends will be my next purchase, to join the rest of his inanimate-clothing-display-buddies...

You lack modulation sources, I'd say.

I don't know about that. Just Friends + Sloth + Cold Mac would probably do some wild things together. Definitely not standard modulation sources like an ADSR or LFO, but still

And Chronos is picking up "basic LFO duties"... Kinks might be a good companion to it, in that regard...
