Description : You have a small modular or semi-modular synthesizer, and you are wondering: what else needs to be added to expand the capabilities of the system? And how can I get the most out of what I buy? In this extensive course, the synthesizer designer, Chris Meyer, reveals important utilities or modules needed to expand the base system, such as Moog Mother-32, and then explores the wide range of modules available in the EuroRec modular synthesizer format.
Description : You have a small core modular or semi-modular synth, and you’re wondering: What should I add next to grow the capabilities of my system? And how can I get the most out of what I buy? In this extensive course, synth designer Chris Meyer reveals the important utility or “glue” modules you need to expand a core system such as a Moog Mother-32, and then explores a selection of the wide range of modules available in the Eurorack modular synthesizer format.
