weird - the knobs on my unit are so solid. Zero wiggle and a pretty heavy tightness in the turn. Best encoders on any piece of hardware I’ve ever owned so I guess it must vary quite a lot from unit to unit… I presume they will loosen up nicely. I remember the knobs on my MM were pretty tight at first and now they’re perfect… The level knob on my A4 mk1 is starting to move horizontally - soon it’ll be a slider.

How are you liking the M:C now you have it though? - looking forward to hearing what you make with it!

I like it, posted a couple recordings in the M:C only music thread.

I’m not sure if you are joking. In modular, 2-OP FM modules are called COMPLEX oscillators and indeed are known for their versatility.

That’s a good idea actually…I’m currently working on an app for Kit / Pattern randomization :nerd_face:

Welp, just took the plunge on a M:C. 10% discount from Guitar Center made it a no brainer.

just starting working with it in a tune, alongside a bunch of other stuff (music easel, polysix, juno 106, perfourmer, 707 samples, drumatix, etc…). sits in a mix very well, holds its own, and is WAY more than a toy :+1:

I just ordered one. To hell with waiting. :slight_smile:

Now I just want the Polyend Tracker, and my setup will be able to make mods, YMs, and whatever I feel like really.

I nearly sold my Digitone Keys, but then I came to my senses. It’s kind of a cold-dead-hands-synth for me. I like making YM-style chip tunes, which the M:C seems to exude, but I couldn’t give up the complex textures of the DNK…

I decoded the kit / pattern sysex this week and will have an iOS app available soonish, like my one for the Rytm…I’ve been feeding it Euclidean Rhythms all night :nerd_face:

That is so awesome! If I have Max, can I do something along the same lines?

Do you also record video or audio only? Just wondering if this is possible - looking for an easy way to create videos for YouTube.

For the iPhone as well? Please!

Does the M:C have sustain, so I can hold a note instead of having it decay?

#1771

Yes :slight_smile: -> Elektron-Model_Cycles-0075_1920x1280

It is possible to record the audio from the USB input when filning on the phone as Well. But i usually use a dslr for That and then combins the audio and video
