Modulaire eurack + elektron

Hello,

I have a mini brute 2S and I bought a 6U rack. I can sequence with the minibrute but I was told that it was just notes. Do the elektron machines sequence the eurack modular systems well or do you have another solution. I have a Keystep 37 but I trive it a bit limited.

Thank you so much.

Hi @derlich

This is a very broad question. Can you make it specific?

  • which elektron do you have? Only one with midi, or the A4 with CV outputs?
  • what modules do you have? Do you have a midi-cv module?

If you’d buy an FH-2 module (for example) you could use any Elektron that has a good midi sequencer. For example DT or DN or OT or A4 are great midi sequencers.

Try the search function for FH-2 (by expert sleepers)

I depends on the machine, but those which have MIDI sequencing are great with the use of a MIDI to CV module (like mutant brain, uMIDI, black midi-cv or the doepfer A-190-2) or an external interface (CV.OCD) and you’re good. It’s flawless with my DN or OT sequencing my rack through Mutant Brain!

There are several Elektrons which CV outputs but I’m not sure how good they are.

I’ve had A4 mk2, but for whichever reason I prefer using midi and a good midi-cv module.

i have all elektron, with A4 for the cv. two modules :

  • Noise Engineering Basimilus Iteritas Alter Eurorack Module.

  • Bastl Instruments 1983 Quad Eurorack MIDI to CV Module with Advanced Tuning Features

so it’s good. i work with the mii tracks and midi cc.

If you’ve got an analog4 you could well skip the midi to cv module.

Just connect the 4 cv outs of a4 to some cv ins of the basimilus and route the audio out back into a4 for some fx…

This Minibrute 2s ? Seems like it will do more than just send pitch from the multiple sequencer lanes ….

“ 3-track, 64-step sequencer

The sequencer controls Pitch, Gate, Velocity and Pressure. Use Seq 2 or Seq 3 to generate other types of signals : Gates, CV, Pitch, LFOs, Envelopes. Real-time and step editing are available.”

Suddenly, I wondered about the usefulness of the mini brute 2S. Why not a classic rack with sequencer, trig … that it is’ vantage of the mini brute 2S it’s sound, it’s modulations.

in fact, it bothers me to have several types of sequencers. isn’t it better to stay all electrons. but ca sending the cv, the gate and … cc value in connection with the functions of the modules?

It has a 48 point patch bay for CV I/O and 3 separate sequencers built in.

Have you watched any tutorials about using the mini brute with Eurorack? Might help ….

8. Patchbay

48 CV inputs and outputs to control many elements of the synthesizer and sequencer. Some utility modules provide extended possibilities.

So, i have finally a Popopyend Poly 2. I ah e all octatratrack, a mini rite 2s or key step, wath is the best solution for the st up for you.

Enjoy
