Braids and Plaits are both digital macro Eurorack oscillators from Mutable Instruments. They're both excellent, but what makes them different? Let's find out.

Here are some differences I missed!
* Plaits shares no hardware or software with Braids!
* Floatingpoint DSP code written from scratch or inherited from Elements, Warps and Rings.
* Bandlimited synthesis used almost everywhere, producing aliasingfree results at the base sample rate of 48kHz (Braids ran at 96kHz and used naive oversampling).
* Highquality SigmaDelta ADC for CV acquisition, approaching a resolution of 16bit (12bit for Braids).
* ADC reads are interpolated in software to eliminate zipper noise.
* DCcoupled audio output, extending the range of the module to very low frequencies (Braids could not reach LFO ranges).
* Lean hardware design: less HP, mA and €

Thank you for watching. My name is Jeremy, and this is Red Means Recording. I've been making music for a few decades now, and this channel is a place to make music and to talk about the tools and techniques to make music with. We'll use synths, drum machines, modular gear, and software.
