Demonstration of the Clavia Nord Micromodular converted to eurorack module. The front panel control knobs are now fully CV controlled and the in- and outputs have been converted to standard modular levels. And -of course- all have a 3.5 mm jacks to directly patch to other modules! 



Since the first demo that can be seen in this video I have used the converted Micromodular a lot! Most use to me is in making base drone sounds, that are adapted and influenced by other modules. Also having the inputs i use the Micromodular vocoder a lot to modify sounds. Add to this complex modulations and you can create some real interesting sounds.


At the moment i'm working on an additional USB to MIDI converter using a Ploytec IC. The original module requires 3-4 MIDI connections. One in- and optional out pair for playing MIDI notes and one full in/out pair for the programming of the unit. My idea is to have a single USB on the front panel that controls both MIDI play and the programming control.


Thank you for your interest and please do share if you have done your own Eurorack conversions!
