I agree Chris. I know this list is for MOTM, but I can't help but want to
compare the two as far as sonic texture and features go. MOTM is the cream
of the crop, so as a system above the rest I think we need to know what the
plain-old "milk" modules sound like. PAiA 9700 too! Personally, I find the
Blacet modules to be an excellent addition to my studio although nowhere
near as road worthy as MOTM. My whole rack of non MOTM is studio-bound for
sure while I feel very confident about the construction and life span of my
MOTM!
I also agree with Paul about using the LFO and its shape features with the
110 Ring Mod. After some deep experimentataion last night I can't help but
boast of the 320/110 combo. The results are spectacular. You would need the
following modules to duplicate the Blacet Klanger:
110 Ring Mod VCA
320 LFO (carrier wave with shape, but LFO also added not on blacet!)
800 EG or 840 Envelope Follower (simple envelope control)
So buy all of these kits above and see the MOTM fireworks if you have a
blacet and think its the end of the road for features. I used my
self-oscillating 420 filter for the input to the ring mod. I won't even get
into how it sounds with both of my two ring mod together, but let me say it
was a treat. Thanks again for listening,
Thomas White
PS. There is no planned module like the dark star Kaos as of yet? Like
digital noise or something else snap crackly poppy for us distrotion heads!
