Having just purchased my first modular synth and assembled a modular version of the Dark Energy and Dark Time.(this is the easy part) I find myself way over my head and quite stunned by what I am looking at. I thought I was begining to understand a little but have quickly realised that all I am doing is just plug and hope that sounds come out and not smoking ruins.
My plea to all you experienced users is, can you point me and all new users to any publication that will give some of the basics of actually using the system. I have downloaded and printed masses of technical info but what is required is a simple guide as to what can be connected to what and what can or cannot be plugged or patched to what.
It has always been my moan that manuals are great at telling you how a thing works but terrible at explaining how to work it. RTFM is all very well but knowing what the words mean doesn't guarantee knowing what the sentence means.
Sometimes I just feel stupid. Explaining this to my 15 yr old son is somewhat trying.
HELP!!!!
