Fascinating- a ton of useful ideas here. I must confess that I find the screens on Hemispheres confusing- and Benisphere is even worse!- but that’s the price you pay for a hundred-plus applets over two processors in just 8hp I suppose. Clear and concise tutorials help- thank you!

Wow you de-mystified this module for me and never realized how great it was until I started learning it! I will have to try it with Pam and Mimetic Digitalis in my travel case. I also have a micro O&C with base software so good to see how it is useful to have both of these. Easier to use than Disting EX which does more but more of a pain to use.

Nice video as always. I used the original firmware for ages before trying Hemisphere, mostly because there was so much talk about it here on YT. After trying some of the apps it started to become apparent that Hemisphere has plenty of choice, but not really with as much depth as the original OS (although there's fewer apps). What would be really fantastic is to have the original firmware in the Hemisphere suite so you could use it when needed and then pop back and use the various Swiss army knife possibilities of Hemisphere.

I think the Hemispheres suite is more popular because it is accessible as it contains equivalents of typical modules we use every day. The stock firmware is definitely much deeper though and that’s why I have two O_Cs; one for stock and one for Hemispheres. To have both loaded you’d need a bigger memory Teensy than what comes on the current O_C models

Nice video, a bit confused as to how "A"SR works and the whole index thing. Also I'd recommend the Logarythm Branch of hemispheres. It adds two useful apps - a TB 303 style generative acid sequencer which is very nice and an emulation of the stepped LFO Clep Diaz. It also adds an output scaler for the Shift Register so you can limit the range from 1-32 notes instead of just having 32 notes all the time. The cost is the loss of the full Captain MIDI app which is alright by me.

Thanks for mentioning Logarythm. I was just about to ask how to scale the output of shift register because my main problem with the Turing machines is that the melodies are across a range that is so wide it's unmusical, at least to my ears.

@@AmbientMusicStudio Good question - the Enigma app and Enigma Jr applet let you adjust the range of notes output by the shift register to 8, 16, 32, 64 or 127 note ranges. So you can constrain those wild musical extremes

Nice video, now that I finally decided to change the O_C firmware! One thing I noticed though -using the trigger sequencer applet for instance, that the output does not trigger my other (drum) modules. Somehow I had to include a 'MI shades' module to change the output voltage before triggering a module with the O_C. I don't see you doing this. How come? Is there a setting i can change in the O_C that prevents me from using an extra attenuator? Thanks.
@SynthDad

Couple of questions first; what firmware are you using? Is it Hemispheres, or the later Benispheres or newest Phazerville one? I'd recommend Phazerville because there is now a global option to change the output trigger length. Some people had the same issue, and increasing the trigger length fixed it.

Hi Synthdad, I have the uo-c but have not loaded Hemispheres onto yet, as I’m new to Eurorack it’s all bit beyond me but potentially very interesting I have also been watching DASH GLITCH a South African Modular artiste who uses 3 x up-c+ 1normal O-C in his rig so wonder how you would Patch say 2x0-c in different modes say Sequencer 5/16 on one and Shift Register on another to combine, or is that all to complex, the choices would be infinite Love your streams, many thanks although I struggle to understand it all🤕🤕🤕🤔👍🆒🎶🎶🎶🌟👌

I have two O_Cs; one with Hemispheres and one with standard firmware. They both have advantages in different patches so it's worth having two (or more!) It's very easy to patch them together - you just use patch cables! I show how to patch from one app in Hemispheres to another one in this video (on the same O_C though). Hope that helps

ShiftGate is designed as a deterministic generative component. It can be used in conjunction with probability-based components by feeding them into the CV input. Probability in ShiftGate would be one job too many.

@@chysn First off, let me just say THANK YOU for your amazing work on Hemispheres! It has turned the o_C into my most useful module in my case! I can see why you designed it that way given how much is already packed in to ShiftGate, but for me it's difficult to use because my case is small and I don't often have extra modulation to spare. Obviously not every shift register needs to self-contain LFSR functionality, but given how popular the Turing Machine concept is in the eurorack world, it can feel unexpected when omitted. The "one job too many" is definitely a fine line to ride! Thanks again for your explanation on this!

@@BeniRoseMusic If you want something with probability, like Turing Machine but for triggers and gates, Enigma, Jr. might do exactly what you're asking for here. Perhaps our fine host will cover that in the Enigma video! As for ShiftReg, there are SO many ways to introduce probability into this kind of system. You can put Brancher at either the input or output--or both! You can use a VCA to introduce different amplitudes to the CV input. You can put the output of one ShiftReg channel into the input of the other. Even a simple square LFO can introduce chaos because it will have a different frequency than whatever is driving ShiftReg. It doesn't need a "probability" control to introduce chaos, because that's sort of its default. It's deterministic, but you'd need to work really hard to make it predictable. :) Anyway, try Enigma, Jr. It may be what you're looking for as a shift register rhythm generator.
