i don't know if this is possible

So excited about this and love all the different options!

this looks amazing ! really interested !
i mightve missed it but is there a trim on those leds, that would be helpful for some

This is not possible without breaking the concept. There is no 'first' step to begin with. It's a loop with no defined starting point. The only way to achieve this would be a MCU that reads and writes the state of the shift register.

Looping (stepped) CV recorders with reset are useful as a workaround, for instance the Antimatter Brain Seed. Great pairing with the Turing Machine, not only for recording of sequences – controlling its playback with the Turing machine is interesting, too.

Really hyped for that 6HP version.

Really interested in seeing a price on these.

Question regarding the 6HP version! Looks like you can't set the level (voltage range), is that the case? If so, what does it default to?

Meant to answer this earlier, sorry that I missed it.

1. Pragmatically, there's no panel space for a Reset jack.
2. As others have mentioned, the Turing Machine lacks a traditional reset function because of how the circuit works.
3. Something about limitations forcing you to be creative (just kidding, I hate when module makers say that).

However, I will continue to think about this... because with the current hardware implementation it's actually possible, but see #1 above. There would have to be some "secret mode" that takes over one of the other jacks.

Thanks! If people are interested, I'd like to know which version they would want to get.

There's no brightness trimmer, but the LEDs will be toned down considerably compared to the demo clips in the first post (they were super bright).

The CTRL input is multi-functional, it can be assigned to Shift, Bits, or Amp. By default the voltage output level is around 8V, so you can use an external VCA or attenuator if needed.

I'm expecting a manufacturing quote from my assembler shortly, and I'll open up preorders then.

Cool, then I'm all in on either 6HP or the 12HP version. The biggest one is not my cup of tea.

12hp version is what I’m looking at

ETA: alum panel I guess (for me panel look isn’t a super big deal)

Orange · Post by **Orange** » Thu Mar 15, 2018 5:20 pm

12hp if there is still enough space in the case by the time..

cackland · Post by **cackland** » Thu Mar 15, 2018 6:36 pm

Mostly 12hp and 18hp.

zed888 · Post by **zed888** » Thu Mar 15, 2018 6:57 pm

12hp here.

lisa · Post by **lisa** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 12:40 am

6 or 12hp. Depends on the prices.

sempervirent · Post by **sempervirent** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 12:42 am

Thanks everyone. Would be curious to know preferences for aluminum or black matte panel options too.

ignatius · Post by **ignatius** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 1:02 am

aluminum and larger hp module for me.

Silentnotes · Post by **Silentnotes** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 1:40 am

6hp aluminium please

maltemark · Post by **maltemark** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 1:53 am

I'd get both a larger and smaller unit, straight aluminum

InteBra · Post by **InteBra** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 2:17 am

6 or 12hp. Aluminum.

Aluminum.

Black matte all day! Haha and bigger is better for me.

bobbylandry · Post by **bobbylandry** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 7:41 am

All about 18hp and matte black here

miles_macquarrie · Post by **miles_macquarrie** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 8:09 am

I'm interested in the 18hp version w/ the voltage expander in black please!

khyber · Post by **khyber** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 9:27 am

black, 12hp
