My Intellijel 4U 62hp case finally came in and I cannibalized some modules from my main cases to get it up and running in a not-quite-final form. I must say that in this configuration it doesn’t feel like I am giving up much over my main setup.
I’m running this off of a 50,000mAh battery and it seems like I’ll get many hours out of it. I particularly like just putting my headphones directly in and jamming wherever- then if it feels like the patch is going somewhere, I can plug it into my mobile recording setup to put something on tape. I’ll share some thoughts about the case once I have more time on it but so far I am quite pleased.
This patch uses Plaits and Quadrax as voices. Quadrax is run through Disting MkIV’s tape delay which I have not messed with much but found to be really impressive. It can build up a nice drone but it’s oddly controlled and doesn’t go into feedback as soon as expected.
And, yes, that is an old Langstroth bee hive box I’m performing on. I thought it was particularly fitting considering the cameo at the end of the vid.
Hallo, Nice video. I’m looking to make my 62HP Intellijel case portable powered as well and came across this page. I note that you are using a 50,000mAh battery. Is that a USB powerbrick type thing? and are you using some sort of MyVolts USB Ripcord? How are you doing this? Any demystifying greatly appreciated. Thanks Tim
Hi Tim, it’s a Krisdonia power bank that can output regular USB (5v) as well as DC power at various voltage levels that work for powering any of the Intellijel cases.
Initially I thought I needed the Apple camera adapter dongle to power the Motu M2 but it turns out it just requires powering everything up in a certain order.
