and

Not to mention psn Home is where you will be able to hear me DJ in home at my pad. It’s going to own. If you want to interact with VAC on a console, Do not buy a 360, buy a ps3 and add Hexfix93 as a friend. Thats me. I play soul calibur 4, and Battlefield Bad company the most right now.

PS3 is way better.

Back a while ago, when I was writing fate aka between the eyes volume one, I was introduced to this band by an x girlfriend. I remember it was right after I wrote we have to see we have to know and was all excited about it. Then she brought this over while we were all on acid. Out of no where. It blew us all away and we became instant fans. Made me think VAC sucked because of how much better their production was at that time in VAC’s history. Ever since then, I have strived to try and get up to the level of production found on this lp. The good news is I am finally there with my new lp.

In my opinion this is the band that started it all. They invented GOA and psytrance. They were the first to really nail complex musical compositions in a truly fast upbeat techno fashion that was in a bed of trance. I remember before there was goa trance, there was only juno reactor. And still, this is the grandfather of modern psytrance and goa. Guardian Angel is my favorite techno song of all time, I love the guitars and how the song builds up and sounds super psychedelic, with the angel chords fading in and out. Pull and release, Build up and decay, this song nails it on all fronts, and changes up a lot. The drums are tribal in parts as well. I fucking love this song. This is what has inspired vac since the early 90s.

I simply love every song on this record, like over the top. To me this is audio bliss on every front. So complex. So trippy. So much energy. The talent level on production and composition is astounding. Especially from a musicians standpoint. I am floored every time I listen to it. Every listen I hear a new layer, a new sound. To me this is the ultimate LSD record.

To me, this is the top trance record ever made, I like even more than anything by astral projection. This is before, god is god and all their movie soundtrack stuff. I highly recommend this record if you have never heard it.

This is one of the best CDs in my collection I give this a 10 out of 5. Buy now! Click Here to buy Juno Reactor: Beyond the Infinite DRM FREE 256 mp3. Click Here to Buy audio cd Juno Reactor: Beyond the Infinite.

This filter is mean. Aggressive and in your face. It is more like a roland acid sound, but it has this big huge fatness of a moog. So I see it as more of a hybrid. Except, it has it’s own tone that sounds like neither. I dub the sound as “RUSSIAN ACID”. 2 pole filter is real close to the slope of the 3 pole 303. The low pass is a 12db, and the bandpass is a 6db. I love the low pass, and like the band pass as well, just not as much. Both are very usable. IF you can only have one low pass filter, and you like moog and roland, this is the filter for you, it’s like having both in one, with a little extra charm. It’s like a tb303 meets a minimoog. 10hp of space. It’s worth every penny. The more I use it, the more I love it. I have used it in a lot of my new songs, and it adds a lot of new character to my songs. This was the right step for me. The frequensteiner’s low pass just doesn’t cut it. So I use these two together now. The possibilities are endless. I thank shawn or analog haven, and harvestman for this module. I give this a 5 out of 5.

Pros: Big sound, even with the resonance turned up(so many other filters fail in this regard). A very unique sound. Something new and not typical. It’s not expensive. Only 10hp. Does leads and bass very very well. Love it. Sounds amazing when fm’d, especially if you crank the resonance. I love that it has a mixer on it. So for some sounds you don’t even need a mixer for a basic system, the filter will take two input signals.

Cons: I wish it had 3 cv inputs instead of 2, and had an attenuator for each instead of only one input attenuator.

You want fat? How about this, AFG with animated pulse with 2 lfos on the harmonics and the sub osc out square wave, the sine output into the vco6 fm3 turned up a little over half then re tuned and both pwm positive and negatived with varied lfo on each, then rs95e saw wave tuned down one octave as a sub, all into the polivoks.

A very strong face. I really like unique looking models. I’m not a fan of barbie and ken in any regard. In fact one of the reasons I feature models on my blog is to combat the mainstream idea of beauty. I think Sam really nails what I think beauty is, dark, strong, and elegant. She live in colorado.

Update: Today i get home from work, power my modular on. Let it warm up. Test the tracking calibration on the livewire. NOW ITS PERFECT LIKE THE RS95e. No after playing it for 15 minutes, i had to calibrate it again. now its holding on pretty good. After a few days, I’m starting to think that i cannot live without this type of oscillator. It just does to much. Its a pain. Maybe mike brown can modify mine so it tracks better. Who knows. I don’t care that it doesn’t track as well as the vco6 and the rs95e, this thing sounds so good to me that i cannot give it up. Rtopia or someone can modify it so it tracks better, or if they simply put the tracking pot accessible from the front panel without me having to take the unit out of the case so often to calibrate it. This is worth the hassle so far. The model 15s i had would go out of calibration by almost a semitone with in a matter of minutes. This thing will only go out of calibration by a few cents, i’m talking cents. not semitones. But yes i’m that picky to where even cents will bug me. The tracking calibration issues i’m having on the afg are manageable, and i can actually get it tracking and in tune long enough to record it in and make songs with it. That was not the case with the pair of plan b model 15s I had. So it’s all good for now. The guys at livewire are really communicating with me and not blowing me off and doing a great job trying to help me with this problem. So i’m more than happy with the support from Livewire and analog haven. And don’t think that my AFG is broken, it’s not, i’m just so picky when it comes to calibration, that even a few cents makes me get a little bugged out.

Holy ^#%!. It has finally arrived. I have been waiting years for this thing. My initial reactions where wow. Then I tested the calibration for tracking. Not so good. Went to the analog haven web site forum and found instructions on how to calibrate it from rtopia. Yup, now it tracks great for about 2 hrs, then acts like i never calibrated. It has to warm up a bit for the tracking to totally lock in, but once it does, I get 4 octaves pretty dead on for about 2 hrs before i have to re calibrate it again. Ok. What makes this so much different? The amount of control. The animated waves are fracking incredible. It can sound like a big swimming pwm, or a buzz saw, or a pavement grinder. Don’t laugh, I know this is analog. But this reminds me of the jp-8080, the super saw and feedback oscillator. This is a lot different, but kind of a big step like the jp-8080 was when it came to new wave forms in the subtractive synth format a while back. This module gives you a lot of different sounds. More than any other oscillator on the market. For that alone I think it is worth the price of admission. I honestly like the sound of the sine, saw, pulse, tri on the cwejman vc06 a lot more. But the animated osc on the afg really push this in a new territory. Granted, if I use both pwm modes on the vco 6 at once, I can get damn close to the afg, as far as animated wavs. + I think the vco 6 sounds a tad better. Who cares though, because this has a lot more controls over the harmonics and animation I think the vco6 and the AFG clearly stand on the top of the hill of the eurorack modular format when it comes to oscillators. The over all tone of the AFG is robotic, and new. I’ve read that some claim that it sounds vintage. No way, It may drift a tad like a vintage and the oscillators will beat against another in your rack rather fantastically. I compared the AFG to my sh-2, and they sound NOTHING ALIKE. The afg sounds like a robot factory. The antimatter switch is ok. But I prefer the normal waveforms for most things. Antimatter really gets you into robot factory mode. So far my favorite thing about the AFG is the animated pulses. The alien waves are good, but the animated pulses take the cake for me. I give this a 5 out of 5.

Pros: Awesome animated sounds. Buzzy. Lots of controls. Capable of making a lot of new sounds that other oscillators cannot. Unique sounding. Boutique. Top of the line in design. Lots of great knobs. Sub oscillator out that sounds great and is switchable from pulse to saw(like having 2 osc in one box, like the good old junos).

Cons: Basic wave forms do not sound as good as the model 15 or the vco 6, they are not as fat. The footprint is huge, this is a big module, I had to evict a couple of loved modules to make room for this beast. Calibration will hold for 5 octaves for about 6 hrs, but then will slip down to 3 octaves, Plan b model 15 suffers from this as well. The vco 6 and rs95e I think calibrate the high and the low separately rather than use one for all, this is why those have much better results when it comes to tracking. The europeans have it figured out. The americans do not.

What is so spectacular about this module? It tracks the best. I mean the best, even better than the cwejman vco-6 I have. This thing is rock solid and musical. The wave forms are pretty good as well. Not quite as good as the vco6 or model 15 plan b. The saw is pretty good and has control over the shape, either side of the of the shape changer yields a good saw. The pw is pretty good as well. Pwm is really good. But not as good as the vco6, which is the best of all, vco 6 even beats the AFG a little. The sine is kind of weak, very quiet. You can control the sine shape as well, all controllable waves can be done with cv in. Pretty cool, but what is not cool is the fact that there are no input attenuators on the shape inputs, so you will have to have an attenuator or you will get sound drop out from lfo too much like on the model 15. I really like the E model, because it allows you to tune with ease. But what kind of sucks is because of that, it is hard to do manual sweeps that sound natural. But please, let me stress this again. This is a very musical oscillator that sings in pitch, up and down the keyboard. This is not the case for the vast majority of the eurorack oscillators on the market with the exception to the cwejman stuff and livewire stuff. The lack of inputs and controls really just makes this a basic oscillator. Not wild like the plan b that has a ton of inputs but also lack attenuation, or the afg and cwejman stuff that has tons of attenuation and tons of inputs. Over all I give this a 4 out of 5, Especially because it tracks so well. The best tracking analog oscillator i have tested so far.

Pros: Sounds good, great basic functions, super stable and tracks better than any other oscillator in the eurorack format that I have tested so far.

Cons: Not enough inputs or controls. No attenuation on wave shapes.
