Born from a collaboration with Nine Inch Nails' Alessandro Cortini, this semi-modular beast draws inspiration from his live rigs, blending raw analog chaos with tactile control in a compact steel package that echoes the 0-Coast's footprint.
At its core sits a voltage-controlled oscillator with triangle and sub-octave waveshaping, plus a waveshaper-like Tones knob for morphing clean tones into gritty drones, all tracking 1V/oct for precise sequencing. An Agitation function generator delivers LFO and envelope duties, patchable across 7 sources to 13 destinations, while touch bridges and gateways let your fingers reroute signals on the fly for gestural madness. The standout Time/Filter Experiment section twists everything through a delay line with Time, Decay, Absorb, and Filter knobs, spawning swirling noise, phantom tones, and howling echoes—perfect for processing external audio via the high-gain preamp. Housed in a rugged 230 x 140 x 19mm enclosure weighing just 770g, it packs Eurorack-level I/O, a headphone amp, and even a power splitter for pairing with a 0-CTRL, all powered by a included AC adapter.
Players love its unpredictable edge for drones and textures, with touch controls sparking endless experimentation, though some note the steep learning curve rewards patient tweaking over quick jams.
