Knobula

Notes: The world's favorite CV to Midi chord generator, now available in black.

Chord Pilot is an algorythmic chord generator that lets you create chords by defining their size and shape, instead of by their name. So forget about major, minor Dorian 7th augmented add 9ths, Chord Pilot lets you tweak your way to musical nirvana. You can store up to 196 original chords and fire them at will using the 8 buttons, CV control or MIDI.

Connect it up to any MIDI synth or a Poly Cinematic or a Pianophonic and let Chord Pilot navigate you through a musical journey of inspiring arpeggios, orbiting chord sequences and stunning polyphonic spreads of up to 8 notes at once.

Notes: Another clever one from Knobula, this chord-based sequencer/arpeggiator adds versatile harmonic options to your creative process. Pair it with the Poly Cinematic module for best results.

Supplier's Notes:
Generate extraordinary chords without using a keyboard.

Chord Pilot introduces a whole new take on the task of chord creation and performance offering 192 chord memories, a strummer, an arpeggiator and an 8 step chord progression sequencer, all in one compact 12hp package.

Knobula have thrown away the music theory rule book and instead offer a module that encourages the curious mind to discover alternative musical pathways, whether for generative patches or for EDM riffs.

To generate a new chord, Chord Pilot uses a series of controls that alter the width and spread of 'fingers' over a virtual keyboard before conforming them into a variety of musical moods from the pure and harmonious to the terrifying and cacaphonic.

Like all Knobula products, Chord Pilot has been designed primarily with performance in mind, to inpsire by experimentation, to lose yourself in the moment, and to occassionaly generate impossibly hard to play super chords.

With the ability to store and transfer chords in sets of eight, Chord Pilot makes a great companion module for Poly Cinematic, but it is equally at home serving any poly synth with a midi input.

Discover Chord Pilot, your guide, navigator and explorer to a whole new universe of musical harmony, and beyond.

Notes: A clever combo of kick drum synthesis, sidechain compression and digital reverb, Kickain allows you to generate rhythm tracks and work on your stereo mix simultaneously. Clever approach to mixdowns in Eurorack.

Supplier's Notes:
Introducing Kickain. The perfect pairing of a 909 inspired kick drum and side chain compressor. Designed to work in tandem as a single easy to control module, Kickain will revolutionise your side chain workflow, making it a breeze to tame the very heartbeat of your music, intelligently managing low frequency artefacts and removing any clashing frequencies or overlapping transients. The end result will leave you speechless, producing a cleaner, tighter mastering standard mix featuring the most powerful kick drum on the planet.

Spectral Compression

As well as the regular side chain effect of ducking the volume around the kick drum, Kickain also features two spectral compressor modes that intelligently eq the incoming mix to fit around the triggered drum sound, adjusting it continuously 1000s of times a second. The effect has to be heard to be believed, optimising the loudness of your kick without any intrusive 'pumping' on the overall mix. Tracks sound tighter and richer in the bottom end, whilst the kick is always punching through.

Tune to the Room

As with all Knobula products our focus is on performance, so we've given you the essential controls you need to design a kick that fits your tune, your room or your sound system without diving into menus or clicking encoders. The controls allow you to quickly create kicks for a whole host of genres and tempos as well as protect your ears and speakers. And if that's not enough there is a Send/Return option for further processing.

Reverb

Featuring 24bit stereo digital reverb, linked to the decay envelope, you can add subtle room effects or big 10 second bass drops at the twist of a single knob.

Notes: The perfect pairing of a virtual analogue kick drum and side chain compressor. Designed as a single, easy-to-control module, Kickain revolutionizes your kick drum workflow by managing low-frequency artifacts and transients. The result? A cleaner, tighter mastering-standard mix featuring a truly powerful kick drum.

Spectral Compression

Kickain offers two spectral compressor modes that intelligently EQ the mix to fit around the triggered drum sound, adjusting continuously thousands of times a second. This optimizes the kick's loudness without intrusive 'pumping,' ensuring tracks sound tighter and richer in the low end.

Reverb

A 24-bit stereo drum room simulator, linked to the decay envelope, provides ambient reflections or explosive bass drops.
