This is what it looks like under the hood. It's running on a Teensy 4.1, and the UI is currently handled on an external midi controller. To be continued...

New DIY project rabbit hole - 8 channel polyphonic eurorack sequencer

[Olli Harjola @facepalmgames]

The module selection is still a bit work in progress, we'll see if I can make it a little less of a cable mess when everything is plugged in.

[Olli Harjola @facepalmgames]

Couldn't find a #eurorack case with good size-portability ratio, so made my own. Quite happy with how it turned out despite a few little design flaws, like the headphone jack that sits a bit too low if one wants to tilt the case more than a few degrees.

dusting off the orb

[Olli Harjola @facepalmgames]

Well, this "safety valve" tube distortion was my first build, but in its most functional form it only made a low frequency passing wind type sound and I assumed it would be a very bad idea to connect it to other modules.

[Olli Harjola @facepalmgames]

Started building my first diy synth module. It was supposed to be a simple clock-synced modulation source, but there was some feature creep and the plans now include five outputs (4x vactrol CV, 1 gate), multiple modes per output, usb midi...

Mini backpack-sized eurorack synth case is starting to take shape. It's still waiting for some modules and the finished thing isn't going to be built in a cardboard box!

@TylerGlaiel To me this feels a little hacky and reveals the OO-style conceptual linking of data and behaviour that EC enforces. But in the end it probably comes down to personal preference and whatever feels right (+ performance and code readibility considerations where they matter).

[Olli Harjola @facepalmgames]

@TylerGlaiel Consider a PhysicsWorldComponent in EC. For some reason you need to split physics update into two passes with something else happening in between. With EC you would need to add and instantiate a separate PhysicsWorldPass2Component, or add some sort of pre/post update logic.
