This is the second time you got a Fenix right?

Nice, glad to hear those are finally shipping out. They said my Resonant Garden would be on its way soon but that was a couple weeks ago now so hopefully any day now....
Also, got an Argos Bleak in! Looking forward to checking it out.

My B&G Shared System + is still lost in the mail. It's been a bit over a month. I'm having fun accumulating stuff for my percussion and drones rack (Matter, Conduit, Drumfuck + exp, Circadian, clock divider, M32 etc) but can't properly use it until the B&G shows up so I can cross utilize some of the clocks and mod sources for the other rack. That being said I've had a TON of time with just the Easel and pedals. What an interesting machine.
Whole setup should look like this in two CV Bus cases.

That third row from the top is mostly theoretical at the moment, I ditched my Clouds but have been jonesing for another. Anyone wanna play a game of 'what am I missing/what would you replace Clouds with"???

That’s a big ticket purchase to have go missing in the mail! You seem to be keeping your cool about it!

Yeah, I am not happy unless I have owned some rare things 2 or 3 times

Damn antlerface, I hope yr B&G+ shows up soon; I'd be losing it haha
The good news is I can guarantee you're gonna love those CV Bus cases when they arrive, and all the MN modules I've got are great.
Also I got hit up by the dude from Synthesis Technology, who apparently lives in Ft Worth and wants my Mantis. He's giving me run of the lot with his modules (price differentials will have to be considered, I'm sure), and I was wondering what y'all suggest? People gush about the 350, 352, and 355 from what I remember? I don't really *need* anything, but I really like the look of the 352.

The Tempi is a pretty sweet module. It definitely fits nicely as the heart of a system. I had a lot of fun with mine before I downsized, although I never felt like I was using it as thoroughly as it deserved.

Oh man, given the chance, I'd definitely go for the e352. I have no idea what the price differential is, and I've never used one, but that thing looks amazing!
And yeah, Antlerface, that's pretty ridiculous and you're keeping your cool like a champ. I really hope everything works out well for you and hopefully Make Noise work with you if things go south.

What did you switch to when you downsized? I mean sure, I can get trigs out of my maths but that feels like a waste of modulation to ALWAYS patch that to trig my envelope/drum module.
I'd probably be okay with a 3-4 channel tempi tbh, but the layout is so good I won't complain about the extra 2-3 channels.
Honestly, I don't really have a comparable module any more. During my downsizing, most of my modular turned into a Sub 37 and a Drumbrute (which is soon to be flipped for a Digitakt).
This is my current modular:
https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/431105
https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/520683
So I guess the closest comparison to the Tempi is either the Batumi, which has a clock divider mode or the O_C?
Eventually, I plan to expand with a Black and Gold Shared System Plus so I'll end up with a Tempi again in the end

Eurorack geeks - anyone know of some super cheap skiff type metal rack solution? I need to mount a Meng Qi Voltage Memory, Arcade Manifold, and the upcoming Koma Field Kit FX to sit infront of the Bugmodular, width comes to 98HP.
Don't need europower, just a hole (I can drill) to mount a 2.1mm barrel socket to power the VM and FKFX
Literally just looking for a cheapo rack, preferably metal or wood, a minimum of that size. Everything I'm finding is £100+ which seems absolutely crazy for a piece of folded metal -
figured you guys may have some tips?
This is my way of going modular without blasting all my cash into eurorack

I made my own case using quite expensive wood, but it could’ve easily cost barely 30$ for an entire 6U case with a top and bottom part.
Just for what you’re saying is even easier, I say DIY.
If I had ANY woodworking skills whatsoever I'd give it a shot, however as I've proven to myself many times, I can't saw or make a joint for shit, let alone sanding and varnishing and all that jazz.

Good news is he's giving me a E352 for a Mantis + $85 & we are meeting locally. I wonder if there's a way to route both waves to just output 1, so I can not have to worry about mixing/panning this on top of every other stupid sound source in my setup
