RE: [Doepfer_a100] Serge modules for future

2015-12-14 by Scott Rogers

Yeah, I’m finding it a bit strange too. I do understand though. I thought it looked pretty cool being all silver and shiny too. But when I decided I needed to have some other modules, well, the hell with it! I just got a nice Aion 904a filter. It’s black so it doesn’t fit in at all but wow does it sound fantastic! I have a bunch that look different now and it doesn’t bother me at all. The sound is all that matters.

The purism exhibited in this thread makes me chuckle Neil and Jacco. But hey, it's your loss :D

 

Why would Doepfer release a whole series of Serge when Elby is just about to do this?

That would not be a very smart business move in my eyes..

In case you missed it: Elby also sells ready build modules. So no soldering needed.

I own 2 of his analog shift registers and they work very nicely. And to be honest they really don't look out of place in a system that's mostly made up of Doepfer modules. 

 

On careful inspection of link to Elby Designs you would have also noticed they will produce the resonant eq in 2 versions: one with faders and one with pots,  just saying.

I am not in any way affiliated with any of the companies I linked and mentioned.

I am just a bit surprised at the stubborn purism. Part of what has made Eurorack so popular was that Doepfer made it an open format with standard components, a great way for other companies to join the fun.

But then again it's your systems... 

 

Have fun & all the best,

 

Ernst

Not me ;-)

No analog modelling in my rack.

Aaah! That one is not by Serge, but by Thonk. Now I understand.

btw: I doubt there will be a big market for it, especially since the 
(incredible) "Rings" by Mutable Instruments is in the market. I know it 
is very different from the Serge, but it will draw a lot of potential 
buyers away from an analog resonator.
