My disclaimer – i am weak with some of the terminology and concepts of the electronics side of things. Not so much that i haven’t had a grand time with modular synths, other synths, and soma instruments. So, not a beginner, but very weak on some of the technical stuff.
I’m wondering if i have the utilities set up correctly. I have an alligator cable connected between the ground posts on the utilities and the pulsar. I hadn’t realized that this came without a cpu, but it looks like the ones i use for ciat lonbarde are correct. 12v dc, center positive. I’ve tried 2, and when i plug in the utilities module the light below the connection lights up. i’m going to have to do some reading to make sure i’m understanding the individual modules, so I figured the 8 sensors for body patching would be the easiest, and potentially the most fun. But i get absolutely zero result. fingers dry, fingers wet, pressing lightly, using more surface, etc. I can’t get anything to happen. I understand the pulsar well enough to get very fun results with it, and am familiar with fun places to bring in cv modulation, etc.
I imagine that since i am getting no results at all that i must be omitting something very silly. but i’m not sure what to look for. what else do i need to do, other than the above main connections, and then alligator cables between the posts next to the sensors, and a modulation input on the pulsar?
in any case – hello. this is my first post here, and i’m afraid it might be kind of dumb. but that’s ok. thanks.
