Imagine a drum machine that doesn't need a power brick—just plug in gates from your sequencer and watch eight unique analog voices spring to life, each with its own quirky personality.
This passive powerhouse packs eight distinct subtractive analog circuits into a sleek birch plywood frame (32cm x 18cm x 2.5cm, 0.9kg), handcrafted with gold-plated PCBs and smooth metal sliders topped with rubber caps. Every channel gets powered directly from its own 3.5mm gate input (5-12V recommended), responding organically to gate length, LFOs, or complex CV for everything from snappy percussion to droning textures—treat them as drums, synths, or hybrids. Tweak each with three color-coded sliders for main pitch/texture, secondary tone, and volume, flip the latching Mod button for alternate behaviors (like boomy kicks on channel 1's saw wave or pinged filters on channel 2's sine core), and link neighbors for cross-mod chaos. Route Even/Odd CV inputs via eight mute buttons with dual LEDs, process external audio through the single input (routed via channel 2), and output via 10 jacks—eight individuals (DC-coupled for mod duties), plus summed Even/Odd mains for stereo tricks. Sixteen touch plates add fingertip modulation, while passive mixing brings compression and bleed for lively, unpredictable results.
Since its 2022 debut, players love its live-friendly simplicity and endless experimentation, though it shines brightest with punchy sequencers to drive those gates reliably—perfect for evolving rhythms in your Landscape setup or any modular rig.
