Befaco

Notes: A spectral processing playground.

Bandit is a fun combination of band-pass filters, VCAs, and routing options.

It serves multiple functions including equalizer, crossover, multiband VCA, 4 band spectral mixer, and spectral external FX insert point.

It allows you to:

Cut or emphasise different frequency bands of a signal, acting as a voltage-controlled equalizer/isolator.
Split a sound into four different frequency bands for external processing, and if needed, insert them back
Mix four different signals with predefined tone placement in the mix.
Create four different sounds from one sound source by modulating the volume with four different envelopes.
Create evolving timbres by modulating one or more frequency bands using LFOs or audio-rate modulation.

Specs

Current needs: +12V: 80mA, -12: 70mA, 5v:0
Width: 8 HP
Depth: 30mm (including power connector)

Notes: Clock Multiple, Conditioner, and Divider in a compact 2HP format

Distribute your clocks throughout your system using minimal rack space.

The first three outputs maintain the same frequency as the input, while outputs 4 to 7 provide time divisions of 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16.

The active topology allows you to patch clocks on the fly, avoiding the tempo interruptions that can occur with passive multiples.

To reduce the footprint, the input is a TRS jack, with the clock signal on the tip and the reset on the ring. For standard clock only operation, use a regular mono cable, or use the provided splitter to access the reset function.

Notes: A really interesting synth voice module from Befaco, the Oneiroi specialises in ambient pads, drones and soundscapes thanks to a combination of oscillators, looping, effects and randomisation. True stereo textures from a single module.

Supplier's Notes:
Experimental synth voice focused on ambient pads and drone-like soundscapes.

Shape your performance

At its core, there is a Sine Wave Oscillator, Wavetable/Supersaw, and a joyful Looper. This is followed by an FX section featuring a Multimode filter, a Resonator, a Delay, and a Reverb.

His randomizer creates instant patches at the touch of a button.

The Looper can record the external input or the output with "Sound On Sound" looping.

5-second Looper records either the stereo input or the module's output, the Wavetable oscillator uses the Looper buffer

The atmosphere creator

A full-stereo synthesiser that easily creates dense atmospheres for hypnotic music or cinematic sound design.

Featuring three oscillators, four effects, a looper, modulation with complex routing, and a randomizer.

Powerful randomizer with four different targets that acts in different ways depending on the position of the two switches, three levels of intensity and undo/redo.

Specs

Current needs: +12V=200mA, -12V=60mA
Width: 30 HP
Depth Assembled Version: 25mm
Designed, kits prepared and assembled in Barcelona.

Notes: Voltage-controlled lag processor and slope detector

Transforms stepped notes into smooth acid slides with independent speeds for both upper and lower notes.

The onboard slope detector generates gates while the output is rising or falling, allowing events to be activated when moving to upper or lower voltages.

Additionally, it can convert a gate signal into an Attack-Sustain-Release (ASR) envelope.

The shape control feature helps balance speed versus input range, enabling quicker speed while sliding to further notes allowing for time compensated portamento.

Features

Perfect pitch tracking (error < 1 mV)
Independent rise and fall controls
Assignable CV input for rise and fall times
Three selectable speed ranges
Fader-based interface allows for one-handed adjustment of rise and fall times
