Make Noise, the Asheville-based maestros of modular mischief, return with a deep-dive into the GTE—a module designed to extract, mutate and re-route rhythmic and melodic content in a Eurorack setup. In this video, the GTE is put through its paces alongside René and Jumbler, demonstrating how gates can be conjured from CV sequences and then twisted into new creative forms. Expect a blend of technical patching, hands-on modulation, and a performance that fuses visual art with modular synthesis. If you’re after inspiration for dynamic sequencing and generative patchwork, this is a prime slice of Make Noise’s exploratory ethos.
