Welcome to the Club

In this video I’ll explore modular techno with some help from the new Queen of Pentacles by Endorphin. In case you’ve missed it, it’s a 909 inspired drum module with a serious twist on the kick, snare and clap – and eight banks of user defined samples (4 per bank) to make it your own. It also adds a great filter, saturation and the ‘total nightmare’ FX suite which are also featured on the milky way and grand terminal. An inevitable bed of sound is created by Manis Iteritas (noise engineering), and the Instruo Arbhar/Lubadh combo (1st part of the video) and the lead sounds are courtesy of Bloom (sequencer), Loquelic Iteritas Percido (lead) and Desmodus Versio (reverb on steroids).

I’d like to thank @Noise Engineering for answering my endless emails about the Desmodus and my local dealer (midi Amsterdam) for helping me get the latest stuff before it’s sold out. Please note I am not sponsored and I don’t want to monetize this channel because I hate commercials. Also, note that my enthusiasm for certain modules is purely personal taste.

Today the Endorphin.es 1U modules are launched and I had the privilege to make a launch video. If you have an Intellijel 1U row in your case, you may find this video of interest. If not, you may need one!

Endorphin.es made the modules compatible with Intellijel case outputs and I happen to have a Stealth 7U case. Unfortunately, I found out my -12V rail was broken so my ‘Spaceship’ couldn’t fly. I couldn’t make the video! So I had to improvise while waiting for a new TRS80W board to arrive from Canada. Intellijel support has been amazing, but the board would come too late. However, you can also make a cool video when things go wrong.

Endorphin.es started with TRS stereo outputs on the Grand Terminal, Cockpit & Blck_Noir, but then switched to dual mono from there on the Queen and the 6 HP series. This basically meant you had to use adapters. The Cockpit 1U solves all this. It has one TRS stereo input, and three dual mono inputs, duck/side chaining and a TRS stereo out. You can connect Cockpit 1U to Golden Master from the back, keeping cable clutter ‘internal’. It’s a joy to patch them up with any sound you can find.

Two-channel sample player

New Arrival! The Two of Cups is a two-channel sample player supporting pitch and sample selection with CV control. The knobs can be set to change the initial sample, pitch, and decay. 2OC comes with an SD card packed with sounds created by Julia Bondar, which include percussion, bass, and leads.

The 2OC is clearly designed to carry your ‘always used’ samples to complement a Queen of Pentacles or Blck_Noir drumkit, drones and leads. It seriously extends the sonlc abilities of a small system in only 6 HP of space. And ofcourse it pairs very well with the other 6 HP modules, especially the new Total Recall preset manager. The name Two of Cups refers to the Tarot card that celebrates a great relationship between two people in the fields of business and passion. It’s a lucky card!
