Popular-Eurorack-Module-Dataset-2024

A collection of eurorack module datasets (ranging from 1000 - 8000 modules) provided as csv files from 2024. The data has been extracted from ModularGrid.

Notebooks

• Generate_Dataset.ipynb The scraping script used to extract data off ModularGrid. Use this if you want to create your own datasets using ModularGrid's database.

• Dataset_Cleaning.ipynb Attempts to clean the dataset. Merges duplicate uploads of modules, including modules that have panel descriptors (e.g. Make Noise - MATHS (black panel) is merged with the original MATHS).

• Eurorack_EDA.ipynb Example EDA, insight into the most popular manufactures, panel sizes, and functions.

Attributes

• Name The name of the module.
  
• Manufacturer Name of the company that designed the module.
  
• Functions List of features that the module has been tagged with.
  
• HP Size of the front panel in Horizontal Pitch, where one HP is 5.08mm.
  
• Depth Distance from the font panel to the back of the module in mm.
  
• +12V (mA) Current draw of the positive 12-volt rail.
  
• -12V (mA) Current draw of the negative 12-volt rail.
  
• +5V (mA) Current draw of the positive 5-volt rail.
  
• Price (€) Set or estimated price of the module in Euros.
  
• Racks Number of virtual user racks the module features in.
  
• Rating A mean average of user ratings from 0-5.
  
• Votes Number of users who left a rating.
  
• Available Information regarding whether the module is currently being produced.
  
• Approved Has the module’s specifications been approved by the manufacturer.

Take the code with a pinch of salt, especially the Extracting and Cleaning scripts. It was put together pretty quickly for a university project, so it's just meant to get the job done, not be super efficient. Though I am confident in the quality of the datasets. Feel free to make the code better and use the data!
