Notes: Based on the ADDAC501 Complex Random module, the 511 expands the concept to become an even more powerful random/stochastic voltage generator. Four channels, all capable of being used for envelopes, modulation sources, sequencers and much more.

Supplier's Notes:
This module greatly expands on the principles of the ADDAC501 Complex Random from 2013.

This is a fully fledged 4 channel voltage generator capable of all things random, with quantization, probability, distribution, interpolation, time control, clock, states and a 32 step sequencer.

The module operation relies on its screen for all parameter editing, each button accesses one single page where parameters can be changed allowing a fast and fluid workflow across all settings.

Long presses on all buttons have a secondary function allowing fast Channel selection plus Mute and Hold functions.

The combination of having 2 Encoders with Push buttons allow swift navigation and editing across all pages and their settings.

Notes: Bartender is the centerpiece of the mixer system. Four stereo channels, with two stereo aux send and two stereo returns. Each channel can be used in a mono mode where both channels are mixed. If you want to do eight channels of mono, you can put the channels in stereo mode (I know it feels backwards) and then use the pan control to control the crossfade between each channel, and then take the mono output. There is a built in cueing system so you can monitor channels in your headphones and control the blend with the main output. You can expand a Bartender with both a Barback and/or another Bartender. When connecting two Bartenders, the main level control on the 'expander' Bartender acts as a group control.

Notes: Rack power bringing 1.25A (1250mA) on both the +12V and -12V rails. There is a 5V rail, but it pulls from the +12V rail, up to 750mA. So only use the +5V rail if you have to.

Comes with 12-position flying bus cable and wall power supply. The wall power supply is the same unit as After Later Audio use on their cases, so there's plenty of headroom and you don't have to worry about memorizing which amperage is for which.

This should be roughly enough for 1 rows of modules in a 104hp case. If you need power for 2 rows, check out The Force module.

Notes: Upgrade any pair of AIAIAI's excellent TMA-2 headphones to high-definition wireless with the S11 and X03 bundle. AIAIAI's W+ Link protocol offers ultra-low latency, lossless sound.

Notes: B.B. King spent 65 years on the road, with hardly a break for more than a few weeks' time, totalling some 18,000 performances. To say that there were some more than memorable incidents over all these years would be a massive understatement. Impossible to include all these anecdotes of the numerous dedicated musicians and companions who lived and played with the great BB King in Jon Brewer's highly acclaimed Documentary 'B.B. King : The Life of Riley' featuring Morgan Freeman, this feature documentary organically arose after the passing of King in 2015, when a legion of his past band members, family and companions reached out in an effort to share these stories from the numerous Tours over decades, recounting the journey they shared with 'B.B.' through civil unrest, historical moments in music and in stage, from 'Chitlin' Circuit to Stadiums with The Rolling Stones and U2. A cinematic pictorial feast, featuring the story-telling style that has established Brewer at the pinnacle of Documentary filmmaking.

Notes: Existing for a few short years (1984 - 1988), El records was perhaps the most 'cult' of the UK so-called 'indie' labels. El records was created in 1984 by Mike Alway. Alway was A&R man for Cherry Red, signing artists such as Everything But the Girl, The Monochrome Set and Felt. Alway left Cherry Red to help run Blanco Y Negro (an offshoot of WEA) but soon felt constrained by the conservativism of the commercial music sector and left to set up his own label. El was once described as 'the most innately English record label there has ever been' and yet had a global appeal. Alway must be the only record label boss to have had four songs written about him.

Alway's mercurial approach was to take complete control of the repertoire, the philosophy of the label's releases and even the titles of songs in the manner of pop impresarios of the past. Alway became a curator, selecting, shaping and overseeing the records issued on El. He employed songwriters proficient in classical pop techniques such as Nicholas Currie (AKA Momus) and Philippe Auclair (AKA Louis Philippe) who in addition to issuing their own records wrote, arranged and performed for other el artistes and used creative talentssuch as photographer Nick Wesolowski and designer Jim Phelan to create the El "look".

El had a unique flavour eschewing the traditions of rock and indie music of the mid 1980s, exhibiting instead a taste for 1960s bubblegum and chamber pop, the European chanson tradition, Latin rhythms and film scores (one of El's key players was child prodigy Simon Turner who wrote music for the films of Derek Jarman).

The ethos of the label was decidedly un-macho and many of El's key artists were female. El's first single "I, Bloodbrother Be" by Shock Headed Peters was an uncompromising gay anthem. Alway saw El as a celebration of elegance and beauty, in his own words, "a pop world beyond leather jackets and jeans". While record sales were disappointing, this unique blend was critically acclaimed in the UK and popular in America and mainland Europe while in Japan El had a profound effect, directly influencing the Shibuya-kei phenomenon that included Pizzicato Five, Cornelius and Kahimi Karie.

Bright Young Things is the first book to tell the fascinating story of El, one of the most influential indie labels of all time.

Notes: In only 12hp, Axis condenses all the classical blocks for the audio amplitude management, redefining the classical envelope -> vca -> mixer path. The idea is to manipulate a sound over three axes: its length, its volume, and its place inside the stereo field.

Axis is a dual envelope generator that features an integrated VCA, a crossfader, and a voltage-controllable mixer section. The initial concept was to combine digital control over an analog VCA to closely emulate the classic Vactrol sound. After more than a year of refinement, Axis has evolved into more than just that. It offers exceptional versatility, providing a wide range of waveforms and the unique capability to simulate the natural percussive qualities of different materials. All this is in a complete analog path.

For the function generator section, we choose a faster method over the classic AD/ ADSR style: a selection of waveforms studied to give back a precise musical effect can be selected with the shape knob. The function length is independent from the actual wave shape and can be settled with the fader timeX from 30hz to 15 seconds. Also, setting the timeX fader at its maximum level will leave the VCA open.

A more typical collection of envelopes can be found in the first half of the dial. All kinds of sounds, from plucked notes to long volume swells passing through lead-friendly lines, can be obtained here.

More unusual, the last section of the knob is thought to simulate the acoustic vibration of a percussed object. Starting with a triangular envelope, from this point on, the more you turn the knob, the more rebounds will be added, simulating the natural ring of a material. Using this section at low rates can generate complex envelopes that could also be suitable for the vibrato-style AM effect. The envelope generator section includes a mode switch (cycle,trigger,hold), a trigger/gate input, an EOC trigger out, a function output, a CV for the envelope shape selection, and one CV for time.

As a cherry on the cake, a crossfader is placed at the end of the chain, blending both Axis halves. With a dedicated fader and CV control, raising it will invert the L/R output, creating nice stereo effects or moving the voices around the stereo field.

The VCA section is more straightforward: it has an audio input/output[1] and a VCA CV input[3].

You can plug the audio I/O to use Axis in its completeness and eliminate a lot of cables and mess!

Soundwise, here at Clank, we are all about vactrols LPGs, but since we knew it's not the most versatile option on the market, we came up with a different design. Blending together a VCA with a not-so-step filter, we obtained a VCA with a nice mild LPG flavor: enough to sound not so "clicky" but not too slow to inficiate really fast sounds.

By default, the envelope created by the function generator is normalized to the CV in of the VCA. Plugging a cable into the VCA in breaks the normalization, in this way you can use a different source to control the VCA and free the function generator for LFOs or modulation duties.

The range Y fader sets the strength of the envelope, but you can also see this control as a volume fader, which is nice since you won't necessarily need an additional volume for your voice after the Axis. Take into consideration that since the Axis VCA is actually a low-pass gate, lowering the rangeY fader also affects the cutoff frequency. The range fader also has its CV control to program dynamic changes to the sound. Basically, it's a VCA over a VCA that permits every note to be at different intensities. Last but not least, Range CV can also be fed by a unipolar modulation CV to obtain vibrato effects or audio rate AM modulations

Notes: Chaos is excellent for modulation purposes or as a clock multiplier/ divider, but that's only scratching the surface... It takes a different approach to writing sequences than traditional sequencers, as it is built on six touring machines combined with an effective pattern and clock generator. One of the biggest challenges in electronic music production, especially when it comes to sequencing, is finding that sweet spot between hands-on control and possibilities.

It can be frustrating because many sequencers with lots of fun and playable controls don't always pack the punch you need. On the flip side, you have those bigger menu-based sequencers with tons of options but can feel overwhelming with all the programming they require. It's designed to help you overcome these challenges and make your music-making experience smoother and more enjoyable, whether you're jamming or writing a song you want to execute live.

Typically, a sequencer starts with a blank canvas. However, with Chaos, you begin with all possibilities at your disposal and can easily narrow them down to fit your vision with just a few adjustments. This makes creating a sequence that conveys a specific mood quick and straightforward. Once you have established this initial mood, you can loop it from the last step to step 32 whenever you hear something you like. At this point, you can choose to modify the entire loop or adjust the parameters of any individual step. There is no need for extensive menu navigation; simply pressing a button and turning the encoder gives you control over parameters such as gate time, gate probability, gate width, gate ratcheting, gate swing, notes, scale, slew, and slew amount.

The LED bar continuously displays the voltage output of the selected channel, as well as the gate and each parameter's value, eliminating the need for a screen. You can save and recall the entire sequence of its six channels at any time. Additionally, there is an internal function that allows you to randomize all parameters or just a select few within a specified range, helping you discover new melodies to work with.

Chaos is an endless reservoir of tunes and is incredibly quick and powerful for composing sequences, gate patterns, or modulation. In a short time, it will become the brain of your system.

Six CV outputs can be used for a wide range of applications; everything from chaotic modulations to fine-tuned sequences can be obtained. Thanks to its interface you can quickly adjust the voltages from where the random engine picks new values and then edit them in every aspect.In addition, Slew amount, Quantization, and external sampling are available on every channel.

Thanks to its 6 gate outputs, Chaos can be used as your system's quick and effective clock manager and gate pattern generator. Chaos also provides a stable master clock (10mS to 10Sec) from a separate output and can be clocked from external devices. On every channel, you can set Probability, Width, Swing, Ratcheting, and Time as a multiplier/divider of the master clock or unquantized in mS.

You can freeze the last 1 to 32 steps of randomly generated CVs and Gates in a locked loop when you hear something you like. Loops are not static; every parameter of Chaos can be used again to change the loop behavior in a non-destructive way.

Entering sequencer mode means taking control of every aspect of the looped sequence generated by the random engine. You can change time, width, probability, ratcheting, slew, slew amount, note, note deviation, etc., for each of the 32 steps of all six channels.

Thanks to the external input, you can substitute the random generator with external voltages, transpose a sequence on the fly, and a lot more.

If you're more into generative stuff or want to add a bit of craziness to the patch, you can use the Chaos function to randomize all the parameters on a channel. A sophisticated control named entropy is available on every parameter to set the distance of the new value from the last one.

Chaos can save and recall 10 slots where you can save entire sets or preferred channel behavior. Recall can also be done with an external voltage.

Notes: The name, indeed, comes from ancient Greek mythology since Proteo was a shapeshifter who could assume whatever shapes he preferred. In this way, our Proteo, has not a precise sound on its own but a clever mechanism that permits to acquire and transform every signal into waveforms. What if you can use your envelopes, LFOs or any other signal as a sound source?

What sets it apart from other oscillators? What's very different in Proteo is its internal pseudo-tape recorder, which is capable of continuously acquiring and transforming any external signal into waveforms and morphing them from a basic sine.

In Proteo, waveforms are not a static digital representation of a sound; they can continuously evolve in a very organic way, and tape loop time is a fundamental factor: changing it will drastically affect the resulting output even with the same sources at the inputs. Slowing down the time will capture a bigger portion of the incoming source with more harmonics. As a result, increasing it allows to capture up to low audio rate signals or really small fragments of the signal.

Exploring the interaction between Proteo, the sources and the time will force you to change your mind about how sounds and harmonics can be generated: visualizing how different shapes can sound and looking for new sources to generate YOUR waveform is the fundamental idea behind Proteo.

Proteo is also stereo, thanks to the Span knob you can easily detune one oscillator from the other to create nice stereo effects. Beside the common pitch the two oscillators have independent acquisition paths and morph controls, each one can emit different waveform.

Notes: Thererec is a 6hp smart dual-function generator based on a different approach! Two modern proximity sensors have replaced all the Attack/Decay thing, and this not only saved a lot of space but also turned Thererec into a whole new thing: a fusion between THEREmin gestural expressiveness and a tape RECorder,

Thererec, indeed, can quickly capture your hand movements and translate them into complex Envelopes and LFOs, adding a lot of expressiveness to your set. Once recorded, your movements can be mangled in both time and amplitude; they can be cycled or triggered in one-shot mode, letting you create complex but synchronized control voltage streams.

A straightforward movement with immediate feedback: move your fingers, listen, and connect yourself to the environment. Your body will do the rest.

Thererec sensors will track your movements to generate a voltage flow, and the LEDs and the CV outputs will reflect those movements.

Notes: Toolbox is the newest essential utility module for your modular system. It's designed to summarize and replace all those necessary small one-function modules, often overlooked due to their space and cost requirements. With a compact 12hp design, it offers a comprehensive selection of carefully curated blocks to expand and enhance the potential of every patch. The module is also specifically designed for internal interaction, allowing the combination of various basic blocks to achieve compelling outcomes, from complex rhythm creation to unusual sound shaper. Every system needs a Toolbox!

Since VCAs are always not enough, the first two blocks on the top row consist of two linear and very fast VCAs, which are also great for AM modulation. They are arranged from left to right: input (DC coupled), control voltage input (ranging from 0 to 8V), and output. The two inputs and control voltages are normalized from left to right, facilitating easy stereo operation. These VCAs, designed primarily for voltage attenuation, are versatile tools that excel in scenarios requiring linear response. With audio, their true strengths shine when applied to amplitude modulation (AM) scenarios, where the benefits of linear control become quite significant. Although they are optimized for AM and voltage control, using exponential envelopes with these VCAs can transform them into two highly effective and fast VCAs for audio applications.

The threshold CV (0-8V) is crucial for the functionality of the blocks labeled with an asterisk (*): AND/OR gates, sequential switches, and flip-flops. By default, the threshold for each block (the voltage that must be reached at every input for the circuit to operate) is set very low, allowing almost any positive signal to be used. By increasing the threshold with an external voltage, you will change the point at which the circuits marked with the * begin to operate. This may seem a little tricky at first, but once you master all the functionality of the Toolbox, the Threshold CV rarely found in other Eurorack modules will open up many more possibilities!

Still composed of two identical parts, the second and third rows contain two blocks of two-channel summing (A & B). This region offers many ways to combine two signals. From left to right, input A, B, SUM out inverted SUM out, and two Boolean operators: AND/OR While any input signal can be used here, the first two outputs are primarily intended for audio sources. In contrast, the Boolean outputs are more suitable for summing gates and logic signals. This setup also allows for the use of both logic and analog signals together; don't hesitate to experiment with Boolean operators using analog or audio signals.For example, connecting two different LFOs to the input of the summing section can create many gate rhythms from the two Boolean outputs by varying the threshold with external voltages.

Summing mixers/Mult Out: This section consists of two 3-input summing mixers connected in series: the output of the upper mixer is routed to the first input of the lower mixer, allowing you to combine a total of five signals with two outputs available. To break this connection, insert a patch cable into the first input of the lower mixer. This action separates the two sections, enabling you to sum two sets of three signals each. Additionally, the lower section includes a multed output by default.

A bidirectional sequential switch is located at the center of the module and labeled with three "I/O" tags. This often overlooked component allows for a wide range of functions, from the most practical to the most creative. When a voltage exceeding the threshold level is applied to the * input, the switch connects the upper left jack to the lower right one. If the voltage is below the threshold, the lower left jack is connected instead. Being bidirectional, each I/O can function as both an input and an output, enabling a 2:1 or 1:2 configuration. Try using the switch at audio rate; this can function as a versatile oscillator waveform shaper. Think of something other than this block as a simple channel switcher!

On the right side of the sequential switch, we have a more classic block: the flip-flop. This block outputs a square wave at half the frequency of any signal applied to the input, whether audio or gate. Two flip-flops are available, which can be used individually or normalized in series. This block is handy for creating sub-octaves of square format from any sound or as a clock divider.

Offset / Attenuverters: Located at the bottom are two offset and attenuverting channels.This section comprises two identical blocks that can easily attenuate, invert, and offset any input signal. Each block features an input jack, one output, and two small knobs. The first knob functions as an attenuverter, allowing you to invert and scale the signal at the same moment. The second knob, the offset, adds a static voltage of +/-0-8V to the resulting output. This functionality is crucial when seeking a more refined control over voltage or a signal. Without any signal at the input, you can use the offset knob as a manual control generator for any control voltage (CV) in your system. For example, try to change the threshold with it.

Notes: Introducing Assembler, a synth-focused audio mixer meticulously engineered to deliver unmatched vintage mixing console sound and intuitive, hands-on control. Developed in partnership with the renowned Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers team, Assembler builds on the rich history and sonic warmth of classic analogue audio mixers while embracing a modern workflow designed specifically for contemporary electronic artists.

The idea behind Assembler was not only to provide a super flexible tool for mixing live or in the studio, but also to provide a sound sculpting tool that could add depth, complexity, and with its special Pittsburgh-designed circuits, help you even to sound better!

Inspired by the sound of iconic analogue consoles that shaped decades of music production, Assembler captures the essence of vintage mixers famed for their warmth, character, and dynamic response through tonal shaping and analog tape saturation emulation. These custom circuits, meticulously engineered for Assembler by Pittsburgh Modular utilize signal contouring and soft compression to unify the overall mix. This process emulates the signal chain cherished in vintage recordings, adding the warmth, cohesion, and character that other mixers often lack. The result is a better sounding modern electronic music mixer.

Assembler's ten audio inputs are split into three distinct mixer channel types to seamlessly integrate with various audio scenarios and workflows, however all ten channels have several features in common. Each input includes a powerful preamp capable of up to 20x gain boost, ideal for boosting line level signals, subtle clarity enhancement, or aggressive signal saturation. Three assignable aux sends add flexible audio processing options to each channel. Three segment LED meters, independent headphone Cue, and channel Mutes allow for precise and comprehensive monitoring. Channel 1 and 2 add extensive tonal control with vintage-inspired high and low EQ knobs, each offering -15 dB of boost or cut while all six mono inputs include a dedicated pan control. Two sets of stereo inputs take advantage of the powerful preamps and assignable aux sends to work with both Eurorack and line level signals. This allows for seamless integration of a wide variety of electronic instruments.

The Assembler offers significant flexibility with its three assignable aux send channels, allowing effortless integration of external effects like reverbs and delays or functioning as sub-mix channels. Specifically, two stereo returns and one mono return, each with independent gain adjustments (up to 2.7x gain), enable both creative experimentation and professional-grade signal blending.

Assembler prioritizes ease of use with its intuitive one-knob-per-function design. Every feature, EQ adjustment, auxiliary routing, panning, or level setting, is immediately accessible, providing a seamless, frustration-free mixing experience. Users new to audio mixers will appreciate its straightforward operation, while seasoned artists will instantly feel at home with familiar analogue mixer functionalities clearly laid out.

Equally adept at managing both line-level instruments and modular signals, Assembler effortlessly integrates into any studio or live performance setup. A dedicated headphone output with a separate cue mix ensures detailed and reliable monitoring in live situations, enabling performers to preview and adjust their sounds confidently.

Assembler purposefully eliminates extraneous features found in many modern modular mixers, focusing solely on superior audio quality, intuitive user experience, and robust reliability. The result is a professional-quality audio mixer that offers an exceptional analog sound experience at a significantly accessible price point compared to competing products.

Assembler continues this tradition by seamlessly blending revered analogue sound processing with modern modular flexibility, and it will also self-oscillate for all the noise artists, if that is important.

Notes: Introducing Boom Chick, a revolutionary analogue drum machine built on the warmth and character of Pittsburgh Modular's newly designed analog drum circuits. These powerful, expressive percussion voices are paired with an advanced sequencer designed for intuitive creativity and deep rhythmic exploration. Inspired by the hands-on performability of iconic analog drum machines, Boom Chick redefines analogue percussion with exceptional flexibility and sonic precision, tailored for modern musicians and producers.

Compact yet incredibly powerful, the Boom Chick ensures frustration-free jamming and tweaking through its intuitive knob-per-function layout and straightforward interface conventions. It's hands-on, immediate, and built for musicians who want a drum machine that feels alive. Turn up the dirt, push the limits, and make some serious noise.

Created by the Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers team, Boom Chick features five meticulously crafted drum voices, each designed for maximum flexibility and expressiveness. The sounds are raw, dynamic, and laser sharp, built to drive and slice through any mix. The electricity creating the analog sounds is directly shaped using the knob-per-function interface. No menus, no hassle, just pure, tactile beat-making analogue magic at your fingertips. By focusing on creative, new analogue designs, Pittsburgh Modular ensured that Boom Chick doesn't just mimic the past, but kick starts a new future of analogue beats.

Every voice has been meticulously engineered for maximum sonic impact, making Boom Chick a true drum synthesizer, not just a drum machine. Starting with a massive bottom end, the Kick drum sculpts a specialized sine-wave oscillator using gritty overdrive, pitch manipulation, and a precise, percussive envelope allowing you to dial in everything from low and long or clean and punchy rhythms to aggressive, overdriven beats. The Snare drum showcases the power of modern analog with powerful snare hits that can mimic a physical snare drum or venture into creative new territories. Drum channels 1 and 2 offer even deeper sound-design possibilities. By utilizing two oscillators, wave shaping, frequency modulation, and noise you can generate everything from subtle nuanced percussion to wild, expressive sonic textures. Toms, claps, snares, kicks, cymbals, rim shots, cowbells, congas, claves, space sounds, and outer space sounds can all be dialed in and reimagined. Hats utilize a custom oscillator noise matrix to create crisp, bright metallic tones ideal for intricate rhythmic patterns.

Boom Chick's sequencer is designed to offer profound depth while maintaining intuitive simplicity. It features two powerful modes: Step Mode, for meticulous programming of each drum step, and Live Mode, allowing real-time rhythm creation and expressive performance. Tools such as Step Shift enable quick and precise timing adjustments for intricate rhythmic patterns, while Step Roll and Chance introduce engaging complexity and variation. Timing functions like Humanize, Swing, and Quantize provide refined control over groove and rhythm, allowing for perfectly locked or naturally loose-feeling sequences. Swing adds groove by shifting even steps slightly behind the beat, while Humanize introduces subtle timing variations to simulate natural playing styles. With up to 64-step sequences and polyrhythm capabilities, Boom Chick encourages experimentation by removing the boundaries to live performance and making beats.

At the heart of Boom Chick is a 6-track sequencer that gives you deep rhythmic control while staying easy to use. With design inspiration taken from Pittsburgh's Voltage Research Lab 2, Boom Chick's sequencer will take you from quick jams to mind-bending polyrhythms. This sequencer is not only designed to keep up with you, but also propel you to new territory.

Boom Chick is modular-friendly, MIDI-capable, and performance-ready. This makes it a perfect addition to any studio or live rig. Individual trigger inputs and individual drum outs allow each drum to be sent to a mixer or DAW separately for external processing or recording. MIDI in and out to send and receive clock, trigger drums, or sequence external percussion. Analog clock in and out allows Boom Chick to easily integrate with Eurorack setups and other gear. Separate Line and Headphone outputs make personal jams, recording, or live performances easy.

Notes: The concept for Diamond Pedals' Boost/EQ began in the early 2000s, with a request for a 'compression-less' version of the famed Diamond Compressor - combining a clean boost circuit with the Compressor's Tilt EQ.

Nearly 20 years after the resulting original pedal's launch, we've re-imagined this idea on the same platform as the Comp/EQ. Introducing the next-generation Diamond Boost/EQ. This versatile, low-noise pedal delivers a punchy, dynamic sound that's ideal for any set-up

Taking the lively, high-fidelity gain stages of the Comp/EQ, the Boost/EQ offers plenty of punch while maintaining clarity and transparency. While the Tilt and Mid controls give you complete freedom to sculpt your tone. Need more sparkle? Dial it in with the Tilt knob. Looking for a midrange boost to cut through your solos? The Mid control has you covered. Want to make your Marshall tone a bit more Fenderesque? It's all possible with Diamond's Boost/EQ.

In addition, the Boost/EQ features a second mode that provides a low-gain overdrive - transparent, yet full of character. This makes the Boost/EQ the ultimate Swiss Army knife for your pedalboard, combining clean boost, tone shaping and overdrive, into one powerful and versatile pedal.

The Boost/EO offers 2 distinct modes of operation. The first is a clean boost mode designed to increase the output of your signal enabling you to beef-up low-output pickups, drive tube amps and dirt pedals for increased sustain and saturation or simply have your solos jump out in the mix.

Set to the OD mode, the gain structure of the pedal is modified and soft clipping diodes are added to the circuit. This provides smooth, transparent, musical distortion that ranges from just a touch of hair and harmonic overtones, to a nice low to mid gain overdrive. Depending on where your Boost/EO is placed in your signal chain, it will either deliver an increase in volume or distortion/saturation. Place it at the end of your pedal chain or in an amp's series FX loop for a volume boost. Put it in front of your drives and fuzzes for more gain and distortion.

Power

This device takes a standard 9 volt DC power supply with a 2.1mm negative center barrel. EQD always recommend pedal-specific, transformer-isolated wall-wart power supplies or multiple isolated-output supplies. Pedals will make extra noise if there is ripple or unclean power. Switching-type power supplies, daisy chains and non-pedal specific power supplies do not filter dirty power as well and let through unwanted noise. DO NOT RUN AT HIGHER VOLTAGES!

Notes: The Oceans Abyss expands on Electro-Harmonix's highly acclaimed reverb technology to deliver a truly immersive effects workstation. The pedal is centered around dual reverb engines that are independently programmable with full-stereo algorithms including Hall, Spring, Shimmer and more.

Notes: Polyphonic sequencing from Elektrofon, the Klang allows you to program and perform chords and multi-layered harmonies. Circular clock-style display gives visual feedback and real-time indication of chord progressions.

Supplier's Notes:
«Klang» is a 4 voice polyphonic controller. It stores, traverses and manipulates chord progressions.

Overview

«Klang» is a unique take on polyphonic control within Eurorack.

Displaying chords in a circular clock-like display, and giving the user immediate control over every aspect without "menu diving" makes for an easy to use and inspiring module.

The module can store up to 99 chords, where each chord is made up of 4 voices.

Each voice is represented by a colored indicator on the clock-face which in turn is controlled by an encoder.

The indicators points to notes on the chromatic scale drawn in 360- around the clock-face.

Interface

The big grey encoder in the middle of the module lets you browse the chords - the active chord and total chord count is shown just above the encoder on the display.

The + button lets you ad a new chord. The new chord is added after the currently active chord, and the new chord is then set as the active chord.

The - button removes the current chord.

Inputs

The module has 3 inputs - 1 trigger input and 2 bipolar CV inputs.

Trigger input

The trigger input triggers a chord change.

If the direction input is unconnected, a single trigger results in a single step in the forwards direction.

Direction input (+-5V)

The direction input normalizes to a single step in the forwards direction.

You can feed this input a bipolar CV (+-5V).

Direction maps the total chord count to 5V. This means that +5V results in a single trigger progressing +n steps, where n is the total chord count.

A negative voltage will do exactly the same but resulting in backwards stepping.

0V equals no movement.

Transpose input (+-5V)

This bipolar CV lets you transpose the current chord up or down within 1 octave.

It is therefore a 5V/oct input.

The reason for this is that it is intended to be used with an analoge voltage source like the Pressure Points from Make Noise, or any other analoge sequencer.

It is much easier to fine tune a 5V/oct signal with a regular potentiometer than a 1V/oct signal.

Outputs

Each voice has a separate color coded 1V/oct CV output.

Notes: Empress have brought back the most sought after Parametric EQ pedal with groundbreaking updates.

More Control

Whether you're trying to cut through a mix or fix a feedback issue, you need precision! The ParaEq MKII offers the most control of any pedal EQ on the market.

More Power

The ParaEq MKII pedals operates internally at 27V, providing clean headroom without unwanted clipping.

More Purity

We're able to offer the most control without degradation to the tone due to minimal circuit topology0 the opposite of graphic EQs.

Which ParaEq Do You Need?

The original ParaEq has been loved and trusted by musicians on a variety of instruments for over a decade. Both the ParaEq MKII and the ParaEq MKII Deluxe feature a low-noise, transparent signal path that is extremely versatile.

With three fully parametric bands, you can simultaneously achieve broad tonal shaping and precise fine-tuning to sculpt your perfect sound.

The ParaEQ MKII Deluxe will appeal to players who:

Need high-pass and low-pass filters for precision work at the frequency extremes
Want the glorious sound of Baxandall filters for sparkling high end or extra weight in the low end
Want to be prepared for any EQ situation

Why Parametric over Graphic EQ?

Graphic equalizers provide a convenient visual sense of the EQ curve. However, there is a tradeoff in transparency and precision.

The ParaEq MKII Deluxe excels in precision and transparency compared to a standard 7-band graphic EQ pedal. When both are set to provide a boost, the ParaEq MKII Deluxe offers a much more focused adjustment, affecting only the targeted frequencies. In contrast, the graphic EQ alters a broader range of the frequency spectrum. Moreover, while the ParaEq keeps the rest of the signal unchanged, the graphic EQ can unintentionally reduce other parts of the signal. This makes the ParaEq MKII Deluxe a more transparent and accurate tool for shaping your sound.

This combination of transparency and precision is why recording studio control rooms are dominated by parametric equalizers, and why they're a great choice for creative and corrective EQ on your pedalboard.

Notes: EGL-1 is a desktop analogue synthesiser that is ideal for a variety of duties. The unit's sub-oscillator can be configured to determine the emitted waveform and decays when the Push switch is pressed. There are four LFOs routed to the primary VCO for bountiful modulation capabilities. The VCO itself is routed through a boost circuit for a some extra flair that's sure to punish listeners in all the right ways.

EGL-1 Features

VCO routed through boost circuit
4 LFOs provide ample modulation possibilities
Integrated sub-oscillator
Push switch causes the sub-oscillator to decay
Two types of modulation can be applied to the MAIN VCO (oscillator).

The bottom stage mixes four LFOs and allows you to adjust the input level to the MAIN VCO with the level.

The middle stage allows you to input a WAVE to the SUB OSC (another oscillator) with adjustable rise and fall of the oscillator, which can then be fed into the MAIN VCO.

The push-button in the top right-hand corner rapidly decays the power of the SUB OSC as long as it is pressed. While it decays, it has an effect on the sound of the MAIN VCO.

The MAIN VCO output also has an output circuit to make the sound more powerful.

The EGL-1 operates from a 9V centre-minus or battery. Neither is included.

Notes: Excellent basic analogue synth with its own distinctive character. The UNVO-1 is a two-oscillator design with a 'strain' and filter circuit to sculpt your sound. Control via the knobby front panel for experimental tones and powerful bass sounds.

Supplier's Notes:
It is powered by a center negative DC 9V adapter or a single 9V battery.

It contains two VCOs (oscillators) with a wide range.

The SUB oscillator has a different frequency and waveform, and is input to the main, respectively. Each of them has a range switch, so it works like an LFO under the switch. The color of the range switch (white, black) corresponds to the color of the SUB.1 and SUB.2 on-off switches next to the FREQ knob of the main oscillator.

When the WAVE switch is turned on, the WAVE knob is activated, and the SUB OSCILLATOR.1 and 2 are shaken.

The main VCO×2 is mixed and fed into the strain + filter circuit. This special filter has a FREQ knob and a TUNE knob. The TUNE knob powerfully amplifies the input signal while also tracking specific pronunciations.

The filter is a circuit that has been fine-tuned so that it can very effectively enhance the bass and treble of this input signal.

Unlike other switches, the noise-on switch moves sideways, left (VCO.1), middle (OFF), and right (VCO.2). They are populated in VCO.1 and 2, respectively.

It is a noise machine that can output a very strong signal that generates a variety of noise sounds.

This analogue synth runs on DC9V negative center or a 9V battery.

The main 2 VCOs can receive 2 oscillators and noise generator inside and go to 2 different filters.

2 oscillators can be tuned with each two FREQ. knobs and controlled with the wave knob.

RED switch is for wave knob working.

Black and White for tone of oscillators

Notes: Simple but effective approach to signal routing here from Jolin Rosa. The Morpher is a four-in/four-out crossfader, scanner and switcher, allowing you to shape, route and manipulate any signal with ease.

Supplier's Notes:
ROSA is a multi-mode crossfader, scanner, and switcher that allows seamless morphing between up to four inputs and outputs. With its three operating modes (Scan, Wave, and Pass), you can easily shape and route signals to fit any patch.

A quick overview:

Scan Mode: Morph between up to four inputs with adjustable curves using the KNEE control.
Wave Mode: Independently control the four VCAs for complex dynamic changes.
Pass Mode: Route a single input (or mix multiple inputs) to up to four outputs, perfect for quadraphonic setups or parallel processing.
Infinite Analogue Potentiometer: For smooth, continuous transitions.
Global SHUT Control: CV-controlled mute for immediate silence.

Notes: The first outing for KMA's unique and custom AI driven True Double Tracker technology was in the ENDGAME, their powerhouse end-of-chain pedal. KMA designed their dead-simple-to-use, TDT Algorithm in ENDGAME to be as authentic to the doubling recording process as possible, but they realise that not everybody needs all the bells and whistles of such an all-encompassing device.

However, the processing power requirements required for TDT meant a simpler device wasn't yet possible. But as demand from the community grew, KMA's team worked hard to squeeze it down and make it happen.

So, meet GEMINUS - all of KMA's True Double Tracker goodness in a compact pedal that's suitable for any board. Whether playing live or recording with a single instrument, GEMINUS is the perfect solution for adding "fatness" and "width" to your performances - it really does feel like you are playing the same riff twice!


Enabled via the soft bypass footswitch, GEMINUS accurately replicates the minor differences that exist between two separate recordings. The TDT WIDTH control spreads your doubled tracks, anywhere from completely centred (0%) to 50% left and right (centre indent) and 100% left and right split.



KMA has carried out extensive research on how to make double tracking sound exactly how they think it should perform. In the process, they've spent thousands of engineering hours working on our own proprietary technology, even developing their own custom neural network AI with onset detection in the process for our algorithms.

The mode for the TRS input and output jacks is selected by the toggle switch. You can choose between stereo in and out, mono in and stereo out or mono in to mono out, so no matter your signal and tonal desires, GEMINUS will fit into your rig with ease.

For the most accurate performance (and just like the real double tracking scenario in the studio), their custom True Double Tracker algorithm should ideally be fed with a mono signal. Obviously if you are trying to emulate what traditionally happens in the studio, you wouldn't normally double up a stereo source. Having said that, the TDT algorithm has been optimised to still have a useful and very pleasing widening effect on stereo input signals, just take care that using too much doubling on some stereo sources may cause your carefully crafted reverb, delay or other modulation effects to turn to mush or even add phase issues.

To help tailor the Doubling to your own taste, the TIME control changes the timing range of the doubled AI-driven onset detection. Essentially, it's all about the tightness of the doubled signal to fit differing playing styles. Variable from an extra tight mode, that's perfect for extra fast riffs, to a looser timing that can just the right amount of density to more open playing styles, this control is a powerful weapon to make your riffs fit your musical goals. The centre detent is GEMINUS' default factory position, but turning the knob left will give a tighter feel. Crank the knob to the right and the doubled signal becomes much more relaxed.


While the LEVEL control affects the balance of the doubled signal against the original source. Useful for those times where you might want maximum width, but a little less (or even more) of the sound to be doubled against the original. Centre detent of the knob is GEMINUS' default factory position. There's some clever panning stuff going on under the hood here too, so neither the doubled or original signal is louder on one side or the other, when in Stereo.

Finally, the new PITCH selector switch can add some additional movement to your doubled signal, extending the usefulness of GEMINUS beyond standard doubling. When the switch is at the centre default position (-) there is no pitch adjustment, (~) adds some subtle modulation, while (?) adds even more wobble. In this mode, it doesn't mean that your second guitarist will sound like they are off on a quest for enlightenment all on their own (!), it is just super handy for those times when you want more chaos and instability in your ensemble.

To top it all off, they've added a switchable real True/Buffered bypass and 'silent' relay-based soft switching. When KMA were testing our new pedal platform, they really loved the clarity and signal integrity of KMA's Buffered Bypass, plus there are zero clicks and pops when switching in this mode, which is why it is the recommended and default mode on shipping. However, they know some players have some special devices like extra fussy vintage fuzz pedals and the like, so they added the ability to select True Bypass mode via an internal dip switch.

Phew, seems that there's quite a lot going inside GEMINUS then. We believe our True Double-Tracker in this pedal is the best sounding, yet easiest to use doubler you'll ever play - period.


Go forth and multiply your riffs!
