I forgot to mention: The Ensemble Oscillator can work in microtonal and unquantized spread modes at well! Not scales. It also has a bunch of octave modes and 5ths and the like. Check out the manual for a full list. Thanks for watching!

You're making me miss this module! I had one but sold it thinking I wanted to make room for more analog gear and felt like I could get in similar territory with Tides Parasites and Stages Ourobouros. But it's not quite the same! I love the Stages Harmonic oscillator, but Stages is so clutch for generating envelopes, S&H, and slew that I don't use the oscillator mode very often. Lately I've been wishing I still had the Ensemble, especially since I just got a QPAS and feel like the two modules would sound heavenly and cinematic together.

I've had this for a few days, and I'm having a hard time figuring out how I would use it with other melodic modules. This is because, though it plays chords, it's not diatonic, so it changes key each time the pitch is changed. If it's set to a major scale, it plays a triad in C. This sounds great as long as you don't change the pitch and you're just modulating parameters or sequencing it by itself. But when a sequencer changes the pitch, say to D, it plays a D major, E: E major, and so on. It keeps switching keys instead of going to minor for the 2 and the 3, etc. The only way to avoid changing to unexpected keys all the time is to have it on 5ths or octaves, which I can do with my Neutron. I'm not sure if I'm just not thinking about it right, or missing a setting, or what. Not comparing it to the Neutron, but rather, it seems like the scale and spread become unusable unless a) nothing else is playing along, or b) it's set to 5ths or octaves.

What I do is use a sequencer with a velocity channel, like the Keystep Pro, and patch velocity to the Scale CV input. Then you can select a chord for each note of the sequence, since it's usually just major and minor, what I do is attenuate+offset the velocity so that >50% is minor and

"Chariots of fire made" me laugh.. childhood memories : ) Vangelis was my yellow brick road into synth music. Been thinking about my next sound source and for a while and I've considered the 4ms spherical wavetable navigator, MI Rings, FM like ALM Akemie's castle or another sampler like ALM Squid Salmpler. Or should I literally think outside the box and get a Electron digitone?? But then I got ST E352 Clouds Terrarium: (Wavetable and 2 operator FM++), so maybe I don't need another wavetable and the Akemie is a bit to "raw"? I also got MI Elements so Rings is tempting but I got MI Elements so.. I also got a 4ms STS so I probably don't need another sampler either / : Anyway: Ensemble Oscillator is a serious competitor now to the above mentioned and several other modules and units I thought about. Hopefully it will have easily updatable firmware, like for new scales, intervals or whatever that they might think of. But I would like to hear something more of the dark sides of this module though, like the "Blade Runneresque" sounds at 4:50 can it do base, darke drones and deep pads? Can it be bad and do hell sounds? Is it any good for halloween?

I have begun to sprinkle a couple of A-130-2's around after seeing this. I'm interested in your thoughts on VCA placement in the audio signal chain. I started with just an Intellijel VCA, which was nowhere near enough. But I'm also realizing that, for example, if you place the VCA after the VCO, you can have issues with say, the filter continuing to oscillate with the VCA closed. And for the record my first A-130 went next to the Ensemble. At first I think I assumed the VCA always goes last before the mixer. So now I have gone back and forth. And yeah, I realize it's a complex topic.
