Dimensions: 58 x 18 x 32 cm

Notes: Erica Synths MIDI thru box is professional quality, no latency, one MIDI In to 8 MIDI Through splitter in rigid aluminium case. It allows to connect up to 8 instruments to your sequencer or master keyboard and control them simultaneously without undesired delays and interference.

Notes: Take a DJ-mixer-style combined high-pass and low-pass filter, cram it into Eurorack and you have the DJ VCF. A simple formula, but one perfected by Erica's attention to detail, with CV control and adjustable resonance.

Supplier's Notes:
As its name suggests, the Erica Synths Black DJ VCF provides sound treatment functionality typically found on DJ decks - it is fully open when the cutoff knob is set to 12:00. When turned counter-clockwise, lowpass filtering is applied and when turned clockwise, highpass filtering is applied. The filter also has a nice-sounding resonance parameter. This module provides hands-on control over the sound during the performance, as well as unconventional timbre modulations that are hard to achieve with conventional state variable filters. The Black DJ VCF is a fully analogue design and consists of two VCFs - highpass and lowpass in series and the filter management is done by complex CV routing.

CUTOFF
This is the main control of the module - manual cutoff frequency adjustment with a twist - it's fully open when the cutoff knob is set to 12:00. When turned counter-clockwise, lowpass filtering is applied and when turned clockwise, highpass filtering is initiated

AUDIO LVL
Adjust the audio signal level

RESONANCE
Adjust the resonance level manually. On settings over 1PM, the filter will start to self-oscillate. The resonance is incoming audio signal-sensitive - a signal of greater amplitude may reduce the impact of resonance on the resulting sound

CV1 LVL
This is the cuto CV attenuverter. Adjust the CV level to your taste! Notice that the cutoff CV works differently compared to conventional state variable filters - it sweeps the filter from closed lowpass through fully open to closed highpass

CV2 LVL
This is another cuto CV attenuator

CV2 IN
This is the cuto CV2 input, which is controlled by the attenuator knob

AUDIO IN
Patch your audio signal here.

OUTPUT
This is the audio output of the module.

CV1 IN
This is the cutoff CV1 input. The CV1 level is adjustable by the CV1 LEVEL attenuverter knob.

Fully analogue DJ-style VCF
Manual resonance control
Cuto ff CV attenuverter and attenuator

Notes: Erica Black Series include high-end, unique functionality and superior quality modules. Only the best, highest quality components are used, all inputs and outputs are protected against undesired overvoltage. When designing Black Series, put Erica Synths prioritised design and usability first Big knobs are assigned to functions that make difference in sound. Erica Black series consist of range of modules that are needed to put together entire synth. Enjoy!

The Erica Synths Black Dual ASR EG is a versatile, full analogue voltage controlled looping envelope generator and low frequency oscillator with manually and voltage controlled shape and rate, designed for use in advanced modular systems.

It has two identical parts, each featuring all typical envelope generator controls and bonus features - the end of the cycle output and bi-polar LFO output. When in loop mode the shortest attack and decay settings turn the module into voltage controlled drone oscillator with adjustable waveform (it will not track 1V/oct, though).

Notes: Erica Synths Clap is developed together with French company e-licktronic and it's our take on analogue clap circuits adapted for modular systems. Sharp, punchy sound, Accent & CV control over Tone make it distinctively expressive in studio and live performances.

Features
Tone and Decay controls
CV control with an attenuator over Tone
Manual trigger
Accent for Better expression

Decay range: 120ms - 1100ms
Audio output level: -5...+5V
CV level (full span): -5 - +5V
Trigger level: 5V
Trigger time: 1ms
Accent CV level: 10V
Power consumption: 24mA@+12V, 20mA@-12V
Module width: 6HP
Module depth: 35mm

On this run of modules the Pitch & Decay CV inputs are inverted: rising CV will decrease pitch, falling - increase.

Notes: Pico Drum2 is compact yet versatile percussion synthesizer in a 3 HP eurorack module. It features 8 drum synthesis algorithms created to deliver distinct sounds to your modular system. Each algorithm offers a lot of flexibility therefore a big sounding bass drum and a squelchy snare can be dialled in within the same algorithm. It also tracks 1V/Oct and all parameters can be mapped to the CV1 input.

Technical specifications:
Output level: 10Vptp
CV level (full span): -5V - +5V
Power consumption: +28mA, -5mA
Module width: 3HP
Module depth: 35mm

Notes: Pico DSP is a small brother of the popular stereo effects processor Black Hole DSP. It contains eight algorithms, in detail four delays, two types of reverb, Leslie speaker emulation and an Overdrive/Bitcrusher. Each effect is editable in two parameters. One of them can be modulated using the CV input. Pico DSP features clear, high-resolution sound. Alongside the established standards, it is also possible to generate lots of freaky special effects.

Notes: Pico EF is Erica Synths' take on envelope follower module in 3hp! Pico EF features a preamp with +40dB gain (enough to boost even guitar and dynamic microphone signals for use in a modular system), envelope output with adjustable attack time and a gate output with adjustable threshold. The Pico EF can be used as a preamp, overdrive unit or for controlling VCFs with audio signal, or to use with external instruments to control your modular system in other creative and experimental applications.

Technical specifications:

Preamp boost: up to +40dB
Audio output level: 10Vptp
