Tesseract Modular

Notes: This module is a 12 ins and 12 outs precision buffered matrix.

It is conceived to be a semi-permanent matrix for medium to big systems, with white silkscreen labels to customize ins and outs names.

Every output has a rotary switch to select an input. This is not a mixer, you can make the same input go through several outputs but not several inputs go to the same output.

There's also a bicolor led next to every output for visual info of the signal that is going through it.

This module allows fast patch changes and easy rerouting signals, both audio and cv.

The last version has matte black & gold panel, and it's equipped with OPA4171 precision op-amps for the buffers.

Notes: VU meter for eurorack.

BLINKS is a VU meter for eurorack with 24 RGB leds per channel, function is pretty easy, it has 2 inputs, one for each led column (no output).

PATT button changes the led pattern ( 6 patterns to choose ).

SENS button changes the input sensitivity, cycling in 7 steps.

Long pressing the PATT button enters the color scheme selection.

Long pressing SENS button enters the brightness adjustment. Most probably you'll prefer the lowest setting.

The module has a 5v regulator in case you don't have 5v in you eurorack PSU. A jumper in the back select if the led board would be powered by the 5v rail or the internal regulator (which works with the +12v rail)

Up to 3 stereo signals can be connected to a buffered input using the rear headers.

Easy DIY with only a few components, the led board is already assembled.

5v not indispensable
+5v: 30 mA (on lowest brightness)
+12v: 4mA (or ~40mA if 5v rail is not used)

Notes: Dual AB Switch

The A/B Switch selects between A and B and the middle position of the switch is a "mute", works with any kind of signal (cv or audio) and is bidirectional.

This is an utility module that was made for switching stereo signals, but other uses are possible:

Select between 2 stereo sources.

Select between 2 stereo destinations.

Bypass control for mono signal processing.

Routing control for a single signal.

Panel is reversible so it can be mounted with the switches on the right or left.

This module does not draw any power.

Notes: This is a 3HP version of the Douts module,

A breakout box for the direct outs of the TexMix. Valid for '4StereoChannels' and '4MonoChannels' version 1.5 & 1.6, for earlier channel expander versions some DIY would be required.

Each module has 8 outputs so it could have 2x '4MonoChannels' connected or 1x '4StereoChannels'.

DOUTS has 3 headers on the back, 2 of them are for 4 Mono Channels, the other one, labeled STEREO, is for 4 Stereo Channels.

Notes: Direct Outs for TexMix & 3,5mm to 6,3mm converter.

This is a breakout box for the direct outs of the TexMix. Each module has 8 outputs so it could have 2 '4MonoChannels' connected or 1 '4StereoChannels'.

Without connecting the ribbon cable it's a 3,5/6,3 adapter.

The orientation of the 8 pin ribbon cable is marked by the 'DIRECT OUTS ' legend on the PCB of the channel expanders (mono or stereo) and a white line in the DOUTS input header.

Notes: Dual tidal modulator with max, min & mix outs

FranKinksTides is a 18hp dual Tides (based on the Swirls pcb layout) with the max/min circuit from Kinks and some switches for sync, quadrature, pll and fm operation . It can be a double/complex oscillator, a dual function generator or any combination of oscillator, Lfo and Envelope generator with lots of cv control plus some interesting cross-modulation and sync features.

Some improvements in version 1.2:

-Mix output is now buffered, no signal bleeding on single outs.
-Mix pot controls also the balance of the signals sent to the max/min circuit.
-Uni/bi switch now also determines the signal sent to FM1.
-Clock/sync switch has now a center OFF position, no need of plugging a dummy cable in the Clock1 when using Sheeps firmware to avoid ultra fast sound bank changes.
small improvements for DIY:
-Bigger font size on the pcb.
-Parts renumbered for easy DIY.

Notes: Analog modelling digital oscillator with phase offset modulation

Radioactive is a small but powerful 14-bit analog modelling voltage-controlled digital sound source: a complete voice Eurorack module in 6HP. It consists of 3 simultaneous independent oscillators, voltage-controlled AR/ASR transient generator, voltage-controlled pitch slew (glide) and voltage-controlled waveshaper with 5 different modes, but that's just the beginning. Its forte consists of selectable gate/trigger/constant envelope timing signals, rather unique 3-voice polyphonic mode, semitone-quantized mode, voltage-controlled waveform selection, on-the-fly selectable 10Vpp CV input range with offset (except for Pitch), a few experimental features, and then some.

Under the hood, it's a chiptune-inspired wavetable-gnawing sound cruncher with a mind of it's own, and oh boy it's dirty. It could be described as raw and untamed, but it would probably be an understatement.

3 green illuminated indicators of selected waveform and their combinations, also providing information in setup mode
Single red illuminated indicator of incoming trigger or high/low gate signal
Simple and intuitive setup without menu diving (parameters are saved and recalled at start-up)

Notes: This module has 4 channels of OR Combiner and 4 channels of A/B Switch.

This new version has a reversible panel, so the switches can be placed on the left or the right side.

The OR Combiner is conceived to select or sum trigger and/or gate signals, each channel has 2 inputs (A & B) and one output. A switch select which signal would be present at output, being the middle position of the switch the sum of both. It could be used with other type of signals but only the positive part of these would be present at the output stage (with a small lack of voltage because of the diodes and the pulldown resistor), so it could work with envelopes for example. With bipolar voltages the OR COMBINER channels will work as a Half-wave rectified output (the negative half of the signal is clipped to 0V) This can add many harmonics to audio signals, the combination of 2 oscillators will give as result a sort of 'ring modulator' sound.

The A/B Switch selects between A and B and the middle position of the switch is a "mute", works with any kind of signal (cv or audio) and is bidirectional. Can be used with 2 input signals and 1 output or 1 input signal and 2 outputs.

The circuit of the first version has been re-designed to avoid the bleeding among other issues.

This module does not draw any power.

Notes: This is a dual sequencer, nothing really new but fun to play with. Oriented to facilitate the interaction of both sequencers in order to get more complex patterns and polyrhythms. Very "hands on" CV source & good complement for more complex digital sequencers like Eloquencer, Performer etc.

There are 3 GLOBAL STYLES:
DUAL (2 totally independent 8 step sequencers)
PARALLEL (one sequencer with 2 rows of CV and 8 steps)
SINGLE (one sequencer with 16 steps)
There are also those PLAY MODES:
Normal
Reverse
Pendulum
Random

There are 2 dedicated buttons (and trigger inputs) to change the sequencer behaviour, pressing 1 button will cycle between the play modes, pressing 2 buttons will do it within the global styles.

Each sequencer has:
8 faders & 8 switches (1 per step)
1 master fader
1 switch for manual step & reset
clock, reset and mode inputs
2 gate outs (activated with the switches, center position is no gate)
1 cv out (0 +8 volts range, unquantized)

There is also an output which is the sum of the 2 CVs of both sequencers and 2 gate outs which are a combination of both sequencer gate lines, pretty handy if it's being used as a 16 steps single sequencer but also interesting when used in dual style.

8 position rotary switch to control the number of steps of the second sequencer, but also other switch allows to send that "reset" signal to the first sequencer instead of the second one, useful for the single 16 step style or to make both sequencers interact.

It has 2 slew limiter circuits with input and output, so they can be used independently, by default processing the CV out of each sequencer, forcing the slew to the max will give as result like a weird-synched LFO, but also the gate outs could be plugged in to get like rudimentary envelopes.

The first sequencer has CV control over step repetition, there's a switch to select the CV IN or the second sequencer as source for such purpose (the master fader has no effect over this, so the 8 lines of the faders correspond to the step repetition, from 1 clock per step to 8) Than means that when used in parallel style the lower row of faders could control the step duration, Metropolis or System 100m style.

Two jumper in the back of the module allows to use the "mode 2" input as reversed CV sum output, giving a total of 6 CV and 6 GATE outs.

Notes: Tesseract's step sequencer is designed for hands-on playability, configured as a 16-step or dual 8-step design. Unique features include a 'drunk' mode to add variety to your sequences.

Supplier notes:
Step Fader mkII is a 'hands on' eurorack dual sequencer, featuring two 8 step lines or one with 16 steps, plus quantizer, slew limiter, internal clock generator, CV inputs to control any parameter and more...

Each sequencer has independent settings for the play mode, start point, size (length), clock divider (or step repeat), transposition and duty cycle.
There are 16 presets to store & recall all the above settings plus CV input assignment, scale, tempo, step repeat and clock out ones.
The 2 channels of the quantizer can be used for processing external signals, same for the slew limiters.
The 16 illuminated buttons can be used to set several parameters, even to play the sequencer as a keyboard.

There are 3 MAIN SETUPS:
DUAL (2 totally independent 8 step sequencers)
PARALLEL (one sequencer with 2 rows of CV and 8 steps)
SINGLE (one sequencer with 16 steps)

There are also these PLAY MODES:
Normal
Reverse
Pendulum
Drunk
Random

Each sequencer features:
Clock input (clock input 1 is normalised to clock input 2)
Clock output
Reset input
Gate/Trigger output
Slew limiter output (unquantized)
V/OCT output (quantized)

Additionally, there are 2 summing outputs:
Gate/Trigger 1+2 (OR output of both G/T)
CV 1+2 (sum of both slew limiters)

Features 2 CV inputs with offset pots. Assignable parameters are mode, start, size, clock divider, key (the position of the sequencer is controlled by CV), transposition and duty cycle.

Notes: Stonk it's a joystick controller with 2 channels of CV and 2 of audio. It's a CV generator, looper & audio processor.

Very hands on module which can be a chaos pad or DJ looper.

Features:

2 audio in & out (AC coupled)
2 CV in & out (DC coupled) i5V
2 extra CV outputs +/-10V
12 illuminated push buttons
CV & Audio looper (2:30 per channel)
LFO
Euclidean envelope generator
Multimode Filter
Stereo Reverb
Wave
VCA

The audio AD/DA is 24 bit, 48 KHz, the internal audio handle is 32 bit float.

The CV AD/DA is 16/12 bits, 12 KHz.

The extra CV outputs are the analogue sum and difference of the CV outputs 1 & 2.

Each channel has 6 modes available. By default 2 parameters are assigned to the horizontal & vertical axes but this can be easily tweaked, so it's possible to control any of them (frequency, symmetry, offset or amplitude of the LFO, for example) not only with the joystick but with the 2 CV inputs.

The polarity control & offset of every parameter can also be modified on every mode and every channel.

6 presets for store and recall not only the joystick assignment and settings but all the parameter values for all modes and channels.

Notes: Eurorack version of the 16n Faderbank, offering 16 CV inputs and 16 outputs, each corresponding to a fader. MIDI in and out allows you to configure the module in myriad ways.

Supplier's Notes:
This module is a eurorack version of the 16n Faderbank, implemented with 16 CV inputs and some other smart add ons. Almost everything is in the front panel.

This new version is oriented for firmware tweaks and future expansions, still being fully compatible with the 16n and the previous Sweet Sixteen.

Changes from previous versions:

Function push button
Function led
Expansion header in the back
i2C pull-up switchable with jumpers (aux pcb not required)
Mate black & gold panel with brass nuts

There are 16 channels, which can be used as:
Midi controller
Manual CV generator (0 to 8v range)
Attenuator
CV to Midi CC
i2C controller
CV to i2C data

The Midi CC number and channels can be different for the TRS jack and the USB port. The firmware has been tweaked to allow also Pitch Bend, which is pretty handy because you can get much better resolution through Midi (from min to max values Midi CCs have 128 steps and Pitch Bend has a resolution of 16.384 steps).

The voltage generated by every fader is up to 8v, which is good enough to control eurorack modules (like wide open/close the cutoff frequency of a filter etc).

In the midi CC messages, 0 volts will correspond to a value of 0, and 8 volts to a value of 127. But the CV to Midi can handle also negative voltages, for such task there are 4 slide switches (1 for every 4 faders) that swaps the internal voltage reference in a way that, when activated, 0 volts will be the middle position of the midi controller, -4 volts the minimum value and +4 volts the maximum. Those switches only affect the Midi/i2C outs, CV outs won't be affected by them in any way.

If you plug in a bigger voltage source (like a -5v+5v LFO or a 10v envelope) the fader will work as attenuator, so you'll be able to adapt how that signal affects the Midi CC out, covering the whole Midi CC range, saturating the waveform or just affecting it briefly.

Panel USB port is type B, which seems to be stronger than mini or micro ones.

i2C could connect directly to an ER-301, monome Ansible or a monome Teletype.

The Teensy can be powered via the internal regulator or the +5v eurorack rail (selectable via a switch on the back).

The partial kit comes with all SMD populated, so only through hole components requires soldering work.

Notes: A whole lot of module for the money. Eight-track trigger sequencing with built-in drum synth, sample player and MIDI. Amazing value for studio use or live performance.

Supplier's Notes:
Trigger sequencer with audio and midi

TUKRA is an 8 track eurorack trigger sequencer with drum synth, sample player and midi.

This module can be an 'all in one' solution for drums, but also has great integration capabilities with other gear (eurorack modules, drum boxes, DAWs, midi devices and midi surface controllers).

There are no submenus, all functions and views are accessible all the time.

Brief overview:
- Up to 64 steps per pattern, 64 patterns, 64 parts and 16 songs per project. 64 projects in the microSD card.
- Play mode, clock divider, length & choke settings independent per track & pattern.
- Step value (can be used for modulation, to define the midi velocity, midi note & drum synth pitch or sample selection).

Ins & outs:
- 8 trigger/gate, clock & reset outputs. Clock & reset inputs.
- 4 CV inputs with offset potentiometers (so they're manual controls when no CV is plugged in).
- Audio L & R out (6 additional ones with the expander for independent track output).
- Front panel midi TRS in & out, and USB host for midi controllers.

Midi and audio:
- Midi note and channel configurable per track & song, midi note and velocity can be set by the step value.
- Drum synth, noise with envelope and 'one shot' sample player (factory and user banks) per track.
- Flexible sample selection (each track can play up to 128 samples).
- Mixer with volume, balance, reverb, bit crusher, filter cutoff, resonance and type (smoothly crossfades LP - BP - HP).

Modulation:
- CV & assignable midi CC plus 8 internal LFOs, 3 stepped random sources and step value.
- Modulation matrix for almost all parameters.

Rhythm variation:
- Probability for step, gate and roll.
- Euclidean Rhythm Generator.
- 'Ramifications' generative tool.
- Live view with solo, mute, fill, roll, invert pattern, reverse play direction and rotate.

Time:
- High precision clock source and low latency.
- External sync (via trigger, midi TRS or USB).
- Triplets and swing (aka 'shuffle'), triplet and swing can be generated from a straight clock input or midi clock.
- Micro grid edit, each step has 6 micro steps (24 ppq).
- Half and double tempo functions.

Notes: 8 triangle LFOs with relative frequencies and CV control.

Output voltage is +/- 5.25v (10.5Vpp).

Upper LFO is the fastest and lower is the slowest one. The frequency ratio between LFOs is approx 3/2 (or 1.5), being at max speed the upper 13.5Hz and the lower one 1Hz .

The frequency range with the potentiometer is 80-90%.

Negative voltages present at the CV input will stop the oscillation of all LFOs, but the potentiometer it's an offset, which means that will act as a manual frequency control and will also set the voltage range for the CV input, allowing negative voltages when set to max.

Dimensions: 4 HP
25 mm deep

Notes: 2 x Logic gates with voltage controlled boolean function selection.

Logic gates are used in order to combine GATE signals to conditional event. For example it can be used to combine the GATE signals from various sequencers to get different patterns.

The module has 2 logic processors, the boolean function can be selected with the potentiometer, the CV input or the push button. The CV input range is 0 to 8V, but the potentiometer will work as an offset, so for example, placing the pot in the center position will allow the use of bipolar i4v CV sources like LFOs etc. The input is protected so voltages over 8v will be trimmed out.

Each processor can work in 2 modes:

-Free: when the boolean function changes the output changes according to the inputs & logic type.

-Quantized: when the boolean function changes the output won't change until there is a change in any of the inputs, that way you won't get out of time beats when using the module for percussions with and LFO in the CV input ...for example.

To change the mode long press the button (1 second) if the mode you've just entered is the 'free' one you'll see a pattern on the leds.

CV input 1 can be set to be a trigger input with a jumper in the back of the module, to work just like the push button, so any incoming trigger will jump to the next boolean function, those functions are:

AND
OR
XOR
NAND
NOR
XNOR

Notes: Vinia is a new powerful 8-channel audio generator and processor for Eurorack. Each channel is independent and has its own signal chain. This can be a multi-engine instrument, an FX processor, a combination of both, or a chain of several FX.

The sound generator section offers 2 sample players (one plays from the 16 MB internal flash memory and the other directly from the microSD card), various VCOs (VCO, multi-VCO, harmonic VCO), Karplus, a Chord generator, noise, a drum synth and modulation generators (LFO, envelope follower, envelope).

Each of these generators has a rich set of parameters for setting up your sounds. Then, there is a powerful multi-FX processor.

Tesseract Modular has added 20 different algorithms in Vinia: FM operator, filters (multimode, ladder, rubber, bandpass), a wave folder, tube saturation, delays (filter delay, delay, long delay), reverb, metallizer, grain pitch shift, and more.

These can be flexibly set in a chain per channel and offer many customization possibilities. The module also hosts a mixer. You can also save your channels in presets and work with macro parameters.

Each of the 8 channels can be independently configured as a multi effect processor, VCO, sample player...

Audio outputs are DC coupled so it can be used to generate complex CV modulation sources too.

There are 2 types of modulation in Vinia, the first is stepped (occurs every 1,4 milliseconds approx.) and very flexible, any modulation source can modify any parameter of any track. The second is the 'audio rate' one (44,1 KHz), only a few parameters admit this type and both sources and destinations will be within the same track.

Audio sources: Audio Input, Flash Sample Player, MicroSD Sample Player, VCO, Multi VCO, Harmonic Oscillator, Karplus, Chords, LFO, Envelope Follower, Envelope, Noise, Drum Synth

Audio processors: FM Operator, Multimode Filter, Ladder Filter, Rubber Filter, Bandpass Filter, VCA / Polarizer, Folder, Tube Saturation, Exponential Envelope, Delay, Filter Delay, Long Delay, Long Filter Delay, Reverb, Metalizer, Chorus, Modulator, Vocoder 16, Vocoder 32, Bit Crusher, Rectifier, Grain Pitch Shift, Ring Modulator

Notes: Remote extension module that allows to connect 16 signals (audio, CV, gate or whatever) between large or spread-out cases.

To avoid bleeding, signals are isolated with a ground line between them (both in the ribbon cable and the printed circuit).

The bundle consists in two XT modules and two ribbon cables (1, 1.5 or 2 meters depending on the option selected).

This is a passive module, it does not draw any current.

To avoid bleeding, signals are isolated with a ground line between them (both in the ribbon cable and the printed circuit).

The bundle consists in two XT modules and two ribbon cables (1, 1.5 or 2 meters depending on the option selected).

This is a passive module, it does not draw any current.

Notes: Smith: it's an 8 inputs & 8 outputs precision buffered matrix with presets. Each of the 8 outputs can take the signal from any of the 8 inputs, allowing over 16 million possible combinations.

This is not a mixer, the same input can be routed to many outputs, but several inputs can't be present at the same output simultaneously. The module works with both audio and CV signals, ins & outs have i10 volts range and minimum offset (1 millivolt approx.), which makes it perfect for distributing V/Oct signals too.

8 scenes that can be accessed through the dedicated push buttons but also by CV and trigger. 8 banks (with 8 scenes each, 64 scenes per preset). 8 persistent presets (with 8 banks of 8 scenes each).

This module can be used to store 'presets' for your live setup, allowing patch changes and easy rerouting signals with literally just pressing a button.

Another (more chaotic) way to use it is to plug several modulation sources to the inputs (such as envelopes, LFOs, sequenced CVs) and several modulation destinations to the outputs (filter cutoff, PWM, VCAs...). If you want to introduce a variation in the sound, select a different scene or directly randomize the current one to drastically change 'what is modulating what'.

Using audio sources can lead us to interesting territories too, sequencing waveform changes or using different processors (filter, distortion, folder...). Keep in mind that the switch performs pretty fast and the signal is passed without any modification (to preserve its accuracy, which is pretty important when using the module for v/oct) so with audio, the switching may be clicky. This depends on the sound source too, with 'dirty' ones there's no problem but with clean ones, like low pitched sine waves, it will be.
