- LFOR
Modulation & Random lfor / digital lfo and stepped random generator / 4 HP ⇣ Combining a digital Low Frequency Oscillator with a Stepped Random Generator, this module offers three distinct voltage outputs in the form of Pulse, Triangle, and Random waveforms. The LFO functions as both a voltage and trigger source, while the Stepped Random feature can be seamlessly looped for continuous operation. LFOR_BACK.jpg 1/3 key features LFO with 3 Waveforms Triangle, Pulse and Stepped Random LFO Rate potentiometer Voltage Control over Rate LFO Reset Stepped Random lockable to 16 or 8 steps Random Voltages normalized to LFO Rate Pulse can act as Rythm Generator Wrong polarity protection Skiff friendly specs & downloads width: 4 HP depth: 28 mm power: 25 mA @ +12V / 20 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual The LFO provides three voltages in shape of Pulse, Triangle and Random. It can be used as a voltage and trigger source. The frequency of the LFO can be changed using the Rate potentiometer on top. The LED is indicating the current speed. The Rate of the LFO may be voltage controlled using the Rate CV jack. The small potentiometer acts as an attenuator. Additionally the LFO cycle can be reset via a trigger signal at the Reset jack. The Triangle output provides a standard triangle waveform. Random supplies a randomly stepped voltage at LFO rate. This random voltage is normalized to the LFO CV in creating some interesting random voltages on the other outputs. This connection can be interrupted by inserting a patch cable to Rate CV. Using the Random Lock Switch it is possible to lock the random steps to identical patterns of 16 (mid position) or 8 (down position) steps. If the switch is positioned upwards it is completely random. Patching a voltage to RNDM CV will give you CV control of the Random Lock (switch must be in mid position). Any voltage above 3 volts will produce random steps, any voltage below 4 volts will lock the random out to a pattern of 8 steps. Pulse out is not a typical pulse wave you would expect from an LFO. It is rather a rythmical trigger producing one long pulse at the start of the cycle and a short pulse at the end. This way and by the normalized random voltage (if the CV attenuator is turned clockwise), you will have a wide range of random or locked pulses to trigger VCAs or sequencers. A simple AVR-programmer is neccessary to complete the build. Nevertheless it is a very easy build with only 37 parts in total. prev Up next
- EFI
Filter & EQ efi / dual-mode analog filter / 4 HP ⇣ EFI is an analog multi-mode filter that draws inspiration from the iconic KORG MS-20 filter, refined to seamlessly fit within a compact 4 HP module. Celebrated as one of our top-performing modules, EFI stands as an essential addition to smaller modular setups, allowing you to save valuable HP without compromising on functionality. EFI_BACK.jpg 1/3 key features Analog Dual-Mode-Filter Filter Modes: LP, HP (+ LP Overdrive via Jumper) Resonance Control Two CV Inputs Two CV Attenuators Wrong Polarity Protection specs & downloads width: 4 HP depth: 28 mm power: 26 mA @ +12V / 24 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual The front panel features a switch for easy toggling between Low Pass and High Pass Modes. Alongside, you'll find two CV inputs, each equipped with its own attenuator for precise control. The filter easily enters self-oscillation via the Resonance control. In addition to Lowpass and Highpass modes, a third mode can be activated via a rear-panel jumper. In Lowpass mode without the jumper placed onto the connector pins, increasing Resonance produces smooth, liquid-like overtones. And with Resonance maxed out, the filter goes wild. Building this module is a breeze, requiring only 24 readily available components, making it an accessible DIY project. prev Up next
- Slopes
Modulation & Random slopes / sequenced quad slope generator / 12 HP ⇣ SLOPES is a quad slope generator with integrated gate divider. It is a good tool to create organic and moving changes that match the rhythmic pattern of your patches. 1/3 key features Quad Slope Generator 4x AR Envelope Attenuator per CV Output 8 CV Outputs in Total Internal Gate Divider Clock Input Internal Trigger & Modulation 0V to +10V Range specs & downloads width: 12 HP depth: 28 mm power: 75 mA @ +12V / 49 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual It can simultaneously generate 8 control voltages, which are mainly changed with the potentiometers RISE and FALL. The further you turn RISE clockwise, the longer it takes for the slope to reach its maximum voltage. The further you move the FALL slider potentiometer up, the longer it takes for the slope to subsequently reach 0V. Each slope can be triggered with a trigger or gate signal and outputs a voltage from 0 to +10V (inverted outs respectively -10V). If you need lower voltages, an attenuator is available for each slope. Outputs 1 / 2 and 3 / 4 provide a mix of slopes 1 & 2 and 3 & 4, but the mix can be changed by inserting an inverted signal of one slope with the "1 INV" or "3 INV" switch and the SHAPE 1 / 2 and SHAPE 3 / 4 potentiometers, which adds an additional triangle LFO to the two signals. The rate of the LFO can be changed with the RATE knob. In addition, there are inverted outputs for slopes 1 and 3. The RATE knob also changes the rate of an internal gate, which is divided by 2, 4, 8 and 16 and fed to the four slope gate inputs (from left to right). This connection is broken when you patch an external gate or trigger signal into the dedicated GATE input. One LED per slope indicates if a GATE signal is present. To synchronize the slopes to external modules, you can insert a clock or trigger signal into the CLK input. This overrides the internal gate generator and feeds the gate divider to trigger the four edges according to its division. The inserted clock or trigger signal is buffered and passed to the THRU output. The RST/DIR input jack can be used to reset the gate divider or change its direction. The functionality of this socket can be selected by soldering a solder bridge on the bottom side of the board. The slopes can be very short and snappy, but may also last up to 10 seconds.

- Chiasso
Oscillator chiasso v2 / analog fm drum synth / 14 HP ⇣ CHIASSO V2 stands as an exceptional oscillator, perfect for generating dynamic Techno sounds that consistently captivate through each knob adjustment. In its V2 iteration, it retains the same exceptional sound foundation found in V1. However, V2 introduces innovative enhancements like CV decay inputs and an added noise source for oscillator A, promising even more sonic possibilities. 1/3 key features Two Analog VCOs Two LFOs SQUARE and TRIANGLE Waveforms for OSC and LFO Cross Modulation CV Decay Fade Potentiometer to adjust the Oscillator Mix Trigger and Pitch Normalization Wrong Polarity Protection specs & downloads width: 14 HP depth: 28 mm power: 55 mA @ +12V / 35 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual The module has two oscillators that can generate square or triangular waveforms that you can seamlessly crossfade with the WAVE potentiometers. Each oscillator has its own CV decay envelope, a pitch potentiometer and can be triggered with a trigger signal patched to the left TRIG input as well as individually via the left and right TRIG inputs. A fade potentiometer offers the possibility to manually fade between both oscillators to adjust the mix. Noise can be added to the left oscillator A to make it a little dirtier. There are PITCH CV inputs with attenuators for each voice which, although they don´t track exactly 1 V/OCT, are very useful for changing the mood of each signal to create very organic and moving sounds. The audio output of each side is normalised to the PITCH CV input of the opposite side. The left side is connected after the VCA and the right side before the VCA to achieve different types of cross-modulations and to apply modulation according to incoming trigger signals. In addition, the module has two individual LFOs with square or triangular waveforms that can be fed to the oscillators for further frequency modulation synthesis. Both LFOs have an attenuator to adjust the strength of the modulation and a RATE potentiometer to change the speed of the LFO cycle. The signals of the two oscillators are mixed and output at the OUT socket. prev Up next
- Flitzem Deför
Sequencer flitzem deför / brute sequencer and clock divider / 10 HP ⇣ Flitzem Deför excels as a sequencer for crafting concise, repetitive techno sequences and swift manual sequence alterations. 1/3 key features 4-Step Step Analog Sequencer 3x individual CV Outs to control 3 Oscillators at once 3 Different Sequence Modes: Forwards, Attenuverted, Offset or CV controlled, Backwards Clock or Trigger Through 2x Clock or Trigger Divider adjustable via two Switches Apply Sequence Variations with two Switches Reset CV Input Direction CV input Perfect for Techno Sequences Wrong Polarity Protection specs & downloads width: 10 HP depth: 28 mm power: 45 mA @ +12V / 42 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual The FLITZEM DEFÖR is a 4-step sequencer with 3 individual CV outputs. OUT A is providing a 4-step sequence playing forwards. OUT B will output the same as OUT A, but the sequence CV may be attenuverted or offset with the help of two potentiometers. Additionally there is a CV input that may change the pitch of OUT B. In this case the second potentiometer from top right will be an attenuverter for the incoming CV signal. OUT C is playing the same sequence as OUT A, but backwards. In order to trigger other modules in sync there is a CLK OUT that will provide a buffered copy of the incoming CLK or trigger signal. Furthermore the incoming clock or trigger is divided by 2 or 8 and 4 or 16 on the dedicated clock outputs. The division my be changed with two switches. If you like to alternate the sequence of the three CV outputs, there are two switches that will forward the divided clock signals to the sequencer´s clock input. This way you will instantly create breaks, variations and more complex sequences. A trigger signal into the RST input jack will reset the sequencer. Any CV applied to DIR will change the direction. By using the RST and DIR inputs and the four clock division and change switches you will be able to achieve very rhythmical, versatile and interesting sequences you might not expect from a 4-step sequencer. The 3 CV outputs are especially made to control three separate oscillators at once to create brute and heavy sounds and sequences that will surely shake every dancefloor. The attenuvertion on OUT B is super handy to create detune and octave shifting effects and subbasslines that fit the sequence automatically. prev Up next
- DIZ
Effects diz / delay, noise & signal destroyer / 3 HP ⇣ DIZ is based on the PT2399 chip and uses its extreme settings. The module was designed to create all sorts of noisy and glitchy sounds from any signal. The Input will be delayed, feedbacked or completely destroyed. 1/3 key features Weird Noise Maker Distortion, Delay, Feedback Very easy to use, crazy Sonic Potential specs & downloads width: 3 HP depth: 25 mm power: 15 mA @ +12V / 22 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual The potentiometers control the settings Amount, Diz ziness and Giddiness. The last one may be switched on or off via switch. Some say Diz ziness controls the delay time and Giddiness the feedback. But the effect of the potentiometers depends very much on the presence of the incoming singnals. You will never be sure what happens next. prev Up next
- Klangmaschine
Oscillator klangmaschine / dual digital fm synthesizer / 16 HP ⇣ KLANGMASCHINE is a powerful tool for creating a wide range of sounds, from simple sine waves to complex and evolving textures. It combines two simple frequency modulated synthesizers to create a very powerful and versatile digital sound source. 1/3 key features 2 Voice FM Synthesizer plus Noise Generator CV over all FM Parameters Tone Control Internal VCA Internal Mixer Individual Outputs Wrong Polarity Protection specs & downloads width: 16 HP depth: 28 mm power: 98 mA @ +12V / 56 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual FREQUENCY MODULATION (FM) SYNTHESIS is a method of sound synthesis that uses the modulation of the frequency of one waveform by another waveform to create complex and evolving timbres. FM synthesis uses a modulator waveform to modulate the frequency of a carrier waveform. The frequency of the modulator is usually in the audio range, while the frequency of the carrier determines the pitch of the resulting sound. On both sides of the module are the parameter controls for the FM voices. The sliding potentiometers control FM AMT, FM FREQUENCY and PITCH. Each parameter can be voltage controlled. Attenuators control the amount of incoming CV. If nothing is connected to the CV inputs, the above CV attenuators change the response curve of the parameter sliders. Above the sliders is a TONE control, which lets you emphasize either low or high harmonics, and a VOLUME control, which affects only the MIX OUT. Connect your pitch CV to the V/OCT to play notes. The left V/OCT input is normalized to the right. In addition to the two synthesizer voices, there is a volume control to add white noise to the MIX OUT. You can either listen to the oscillators individually at the OUT jacks, or tap a mix of all three sound sources at the MIX OUT. If you connect an envelope CV to the VCA CV input, you can control an internal VCA. If no envelope CV is connected to the VCA CV input, the LED lights dimly to indicate that all three voices are being output at the MIX OUT. As the level rises, the LED indicates the volume level. If a patch cord is connected to VCA CV without CV, the LED is off to indicate that no signal is being output. If the VCA is opened via CV, the LED again shows the volume level. In the "Just a Minute - Live Techno" videos shown above I use KLANGMASCHINE for the lead sound. Have a listen!

- Stereo Total
Utilities & PSU stereo total / mono to stereo converter, stereo width controller and imager / 4 HP ⇣ Mono: the original black and white movie. Stereo: the epic 3D blockbuster. Let's face it, mono might be the classic, but stereo is where the party's at! STOTAL_BACK.jpg 1/3 key features Mono to Stereo Converter Stereo Width Controller Stereo Imager Buffered Input Multiple Two Separate Stereo Processing Blocks Wrong polarity protection specs & downloads width: 4 HP depth: 25 mm power: 15 mA @ +12V / 10 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual STEREO TOTAL is a Mono to Stereo Converter, Stereo Width Controller and Imager. It consists of two building blocks. The first block A is a Stereo Simulator that creates a stereo signal from an incoming mono signal. This is done by splitting the mono signal in two separate signals, passing the left through an R-C network to reduce mid range frequencies and the right through an operational amplifier in differential mode to obtain an output as a difference to L. Knob A STEREO DEPTH controls the depth of stereo, but also places the signal within the stereo field. Because the signal is filtered, mid range frequencies will be changed as you turn the knob. Additionally the incoming mono signal is multiplied (buffered) and a lossless copy is available at the MONO OUTPUT jack in order to allow further mono signal processing. The second building block B is a Stereo Width Control that allows you to change a stereo signal from mono to wide stereo. This is achieved by summing both signals L and R to create a mono signal when knob B STEREO WIDTH is turned fully counter-clockwise and by splitting them via complete negative crosstalk, when the knob is turned fully clockwise. Fully clockwise the stereo signal contains no centre image at all. Initially the module was designed to be used with mono signals only, but you may also use both building blocks separately. You can convert a mono signal to stereo with block A while you can also change the stereo width of another stereo signal with block B. You can also independently convert two mono signals to stereo using both blocks at the same time (you need to patch a dummy cable to the right channel of stereo input B to disconnect both blocks). A mono signal to block A will run through both blocks when nothing is patched into the block B stereo input jacks. prev Up next
- LFOT
Modulation & Random lfot / touch control lfo / 3 HP ⇣ Low Frequency Oscillator featuring an extensive frequency range and a tactile touch control capability. 1/3 key features LFO with 3 Waveforms Sine, Square and Pulse waves LFO FREQUENCY potentiometer LFO RANGE switch Adjustable Pulse width Two touch plates to play the LFO HOLD function PUSH function Wrong polarity protection Skiff friendly specs & downloads width: 3 HP depth: 28 mm power: 49 mA @ +12V / 47 mA @ -12V documentation videos description / manual The LFO provides three voltages in shape of Sine, Square and Pulse waves. It can be used as a control voltage, clock source or patched into the audio path for drum synthesis. The frequency and the frequency range can be controlled by turning the frequency knob and rate switch. Additionally the width of the pulse wave may be manually adjusted. An LED indicates the current speed of the LFO. On the bottom of the panel you will find two touch plates. Using these you can “play” the LFO and become a part of the circuit. By pressing your finger onto the HOLD plate you will be able to stop and reset the LFO cycle. It will start over again when the finger is released. The second touch plate PUSH is altering the frequency of the oscillator. Roll your finger from the top side of the plate to the bottom and the rate will be increasingly speeded up. Or directly press you finger an all plate parts and go crazy! After releasing your finger from the PUSH plate the frequency will smoothly recover to its original speed set by the frequency knob. prev Up next
