Expert Sleepers disting NT: Mapping Mayhem in the Modular Realm

Expert Sleepers, the UK’s masters of modular-computer integration, return with the disting NT—a Eurorack module that takes mapping flexibility to new heights. In this official walkthrough, we’re treated to a detailed demonstration of how the NT allows users to assign control over any parameter via CV, MIDI, or I2C, all through a streamlined interface. The focus here is on practical patching: from fader-driven modulations to multi-source integration, the video showcases how the disting NT can become the nerve centre of a complex rack. If you’re after a module that plays nicely with everything from faders to sequencers, this is one

Expert Sleepers: Building a Full Track with Pure Analogue Ingenuity

Expert Sleepers, renowned for bridging the modular–DAW divide, step firmly into the analogue limelight with a demo that puts their entire range of voltage-driven modules through its paces. In this video, every sound—kick, snare, hats, bass, pads, leads, and more—is crafted exclusively from Expert Sleepers’ own analogue modules, sequenced and sampled with the help of an Elektron Digitakt and the FH-2 MIDI/CV converter. The result is a patchwork of clever signal routing, modulation tricks, and classic synthesis techniques, all with a distinctly British sense of understatement. If you’ve ever wondered just how far a single manufacturer’s module family can go

Expert Sleepers Disting EX: Quadraphonic Mixer Mode – Spatial Audio in Eurorack

Expert Sleepers, long known for bridging modular hardware and computer-based workflows, takes a spatial leap with the Quadraphonic Mixer mode for the disting EX. This firmware update transforms the multi-tool module into a six-input, four-output mixer designed for immersive spatial audio—think Buchla-era quad, not just cinema surround. The official video walks through its gain structure, coordinate systems, and modulation options, all rendered in binaural for headphone listeners. If you’ve ever wondered how to throw your sounds around a room with joystick sweeps, spinners, and CV, this is a deep-dive into the patchable possibilities of quadraphonic mixing in a single module.
