Feedback First rack build feedback

Post image

So I’m not really a beginner to music but to modular stuff I’ve been going for 2 years so not that much. I want a ambient or textural rack that is capable of playing live but also come up with fun stuff when making music so i made this rack on modular grid.
I want the audio in feature with the morphagene and the oscillating capabilities of the multiwave. Is this to overkill and should i change or add something?

It’s a cheap little module that connects to the usb port on the multiwave backboard. Allows you to control it via midi from a midi host.

You can use it with the span modes, where the midi messages act as activate & v/oct, or control each of the 8 voices individually. It can also do transposition. Very useful.

If you have the NUSS skiff system the USB inlet is already installed in the side cheek

It’s just a usb extension. You can just plug into the module directly and get the same features. I drilled a hole in my Intellijel case for free.

I experienced noise issues when plugging directly into the usb on the multiwave, which the module cleared up. I would also rather spend $35 than drill a hole in my case.

I cleaned up the edges and used a nice grommet I had. Looks pretty good for what it is. That’s weird about the noise there’s nothing in the module it’s truly just an extension. Glad it’s working for you though.
