tafony’s Eurorack Live Rig: Like a Modular Kangaroo on a Red Bull Bender

tafony, Vancouver’s resident modular wrangler, takes us on an epic ramble through his ever-evolving Eurorack live setup. This isn’t your average gear chat—think more outback BBQ with a synth in each hand. From mixer headaches to the Digitakt 2’s melodic mischief, there’s chaos, honesty, and plenty of cheeky banter. If you’re after inspiration for your next outdoor rave or want to know which modules survive the wildest gigs, tafony spills the beans (and maybe a bit of patch cable spaghetti) in true DIY style.

Noise Engineering’s Modular Case: A Patchwork of Voices and Control

Noise Engineering’s Stephen McCaul lifts the lid on his current modular rig, the very case behind his recent performance jams. In this video, he walks through a tightly packed Eurorack setup brimming with six distinct voices, clever mixing strategies, and a few prototype surprises. From the clang of Incus to the saturated punch of Polydactyl, every module earns its place in a patch that’s as performative as it is sonically diverse. If you’re curious about how a boutique designer configures a real-world modular system for live play, this breakdown is a goldmine of routing ideas, modulation tricks, and hands-on workflow.
