bumping to the top of the NEW forvm to welcome in the NAMM craziness! Citizen Klaus posted about the new Pittsburgh Modular stuff, here's a few pics of the modules they announced:

 bender

 

The Bender is a dual voltage controlled low frequency oscillator built around two triangle core, wide range, low frequency waveform generators. A low frequency cousin to the Generator, this multipurpose signal generator can provide the basis of a wide range of complex modulations ideal for amplitude, frequency and timbral modulation.

The Bender module is split into two separate voltage controlled LFOs. Each LFO is controlled by a separate rate knob,  range switch, control voltage input attenuator, and variable waveshape knob.

The two LFOs of the Bender module are wired together internally for frequency cross modulation.  The Variable Waveform output of each LFO is wired to the Rate CV input of the other. This controlled feedback loop creates everything from rhythmic patterns to wild, chaotic modulations. The internal connections can be broken by inserting a patch cable in the Rate CV Input jack.

 

MSRP: $139 

Available: February

 

sequencer

A great utility for any system, the Sequencer module is a compact, 8 step analog sequencer that uses an external clock to cycle through 4, 6, or 8 steps. The output of the sequencer can be used control the pitch of an oscillator, modulate a filter, or manipulate any module with a CV input.

Complex sequences can be created using a combination of the Reset, Hold, and Add inputs. The Reset input can be used to create odd or variable length loops while Hold pauses the movement of the sequencer. Voltage from the Add input is summed with the voltage created by the Sequencer transcribing the the output.

The Sequencer module also makes a great sub-octave generator. Clocking the Sequencer at audio rates using the square wave of an Oscillator turns the Sequencer into a sub-octave waveform generator able to produce 1,2, or 3 octaves below the frequency of the clock.

 

  • Variable Step Count of 4, 6, or 8 Steps
  • Reset CV Input
  • Hold CV Input
  • Transpose CV Adder Input
  • CV Range: 0-10v
  • Dual Outputs

 

MSRP: $139 

Available: February

synthblock

Wired for instant access to classic tones without needing a single patch cable, the Synthesizer Block is a complete semi-modular, monophonic synthesizer. The Synthesizer Block is 100\% analog and 100\% Eurorack compatible with a complete set of patch points able to override the internal audio and CV signal path.

The Synthesizer Block was designed to be the core of any modular system. Each major component is fully patchable and can function independent to the rest of the module. This allows the functionality of the Oscillator, Filter, LFO, Envelope Generator, and VCA to be broken apart and used like standalone modules.

 

  • Full Range Sawtooth Core Oscillator
  • Oscillator Waveform Mixer
  • Voltage Controlled Low Pass Filter
  • Wide Range Low Frequency Oscillator
  • Glide Control for Portamento Effects
  • ADSR Envelope Generator
  • High Quality, Linear Response, Voltage Controlled Amplifier

 

MSRP: $299 (?!? wow thats cheap as **bleep**)

Available : February

toolbox

A versatile 6hp size utility module capable of performing 4 distinct jobs at once.

The Toolbox offers Slew, Noise, Sample & Hold, and Voltage Inversion.

MSRP: $139

Available : January

an FYI, tonight there is a whole hour of donaldcrunk modular and non - modular material being aired on http://www.openlab.fm (and 89.9 if you happen to be on the mediterranean party island of Ibiza). it's playing now, 8-9 CST. i'm quite pleased with my first european radio invasion. there is a good bit of new material, and the curator of the show (notfromearth) does a great job with arrangement and re-mixing. definitely made me think about old tracks and new tracks in a different light.

 

listen if you have the time, if not there will be a sound cloud of the show later i'm told. thx bye, back to being a dad
