The tldr; if you need a simple utility, build it!

I just got an Oscillator Devices HydraX4 to expand my board. I love it. It’s a 4-ch loop switcher with reorderable loops, two programmable gain stages, one of which can be placed before or after any loop.

And MIDI control. I use PC messages to control a few pieces of gear on my board. The only problem is, this is my first MIDI device without a DIN jack. I didn’t want to wait and buy a cable, or hack one together.

So I grabbed this 1590LB and a couple of jacks. I had these parts prior to July 14th, so I will make this my final entry in the PHB.

Hell yes! My Oscillator Devices Minerva arrives today, and I'm building a 1/8" to 1/4" TRS cable for similar control reasons.
I am loving the interface and the thought they put into it. Simple and intuitive while also being very flexible.

I thought about getting a Minerva at some point. My wife asked what I want for my birthday and I told her a Trash Panda Quad. 🤞
