Studio Equipment

Notes: Bluebox is the portable digital audio mixer that lets you get the most out of your electronic music gear. Connect your eurorack, sampler, drum machine and synthesizer outputs to 6 stereo, 3.5 mm TRS inputs and map them to 12 mono tracks or 6 stereo tracks, all with independent control for recording and playback. It's that keyboard mixer with live performance features that you always hoped someone would make.

Connect the output of your electronic music gear to bluebox, and then route each track independently to the three outputs and effects sends. Each track offers control of volume, gain, 4 band parametric EQ, pan, mute and solo functions. Apply high-quality global reverb and delay effects along with 4 band EQ per track to add new depth to your sound with total control to quickly tweak incoming audio or track playback as needed.

With Bluebox you can record independent tracks or the Main mix using a standard microSD card. Capture your jam session for later review, or record the ultimate mix of the tracks for your song.

Bluebox's compact 5.5h x 5h x 2h case lets you tuck it into a crowded tabletop studio or throw it in your pack for the next gig.

Interact with the dynamic visual interface on the 3.5h touchscreen along with physical knobs, navigation buttons and transport buttons to quickly access the most important functions. MIDI input and output allow you to sync the clock with external gear for synchronized effects and metronome.

Notes: The ultimate effects send to bring your sounds to life. With DSP onboard each effect, high fidelity processing can turn your dry sound into an ethereal sonic landscape using our most popular effects modules.

Notes: 2hp's flagship system bundles three voices, filtering, reverb, modulation sources and step sequencing into an ingenious lunchbox format. Tasty.

Supplier's Notes:
The Flagship Lunchbox.

Notes: Complete synthesizer voice with analog VCO and VCA, multimode filter (lowpass, highpass, and bandpass), and ADSR envelope for sound shaping.

Notes: The 3:1 Mixer has two section of 3 inputs to a single output. Each section has an LED indicator indicating activity on the output. Section 1 is normalled to section 2 so it can easily behave as a 6:1 mixer as well.

Notes: Alan (micro Turing Machine) Shift Register Based Sequencer

The randomness of the Music Thing Modular Turing Machine, shrunk down to 6HP. Alan retains all of the same functionality as the original including the connectors for the expanders.

While this module has little to do with the original Turing Machine (by Alan Turing), it is a shift register based sequencer. You cannot program this sequencer, instead it builds random sequences that can be locked in.

Alan comes tested, calibrated and ready to bring random voltages.

The After Later Audio panel is black and gold and made from FR4. The package will include a power/ribbon cable and a one year warranty.

Notes: This is a new build of a micro Mutable Instruments Elements. It features jack lights that can be turned on/off via a jumper on the back. This module comes loaded with the most recent firmware, with the new Chords mode that unlocks a whole new world of potential.

These modules use tall bushing potentiometers to offer a more stable feel. You can see the difference in the last picture. You will feel much less wiggle with the tall bushing (left) than with traditional trimmer style (right).

The module is fully assembled, tested, and calibrated. Eurorack power cable is included.

Notes: Revised take on the excellent Benjolin dual oscillator and filter from Rob Hordijk, featuring the 'rungler' stepped CV generator and extensive output options.

Supplier's Notes:
Benjolin V2 - Rob Hordijk's latest revision of the classic Benjolin. The core of the Benjolin continues to be two oscillators, the rungler (stepped CV generator), and a multimode filter.

This latest revision adds:

Reworked oscillator and filter sections

All levels are adjusted to eurorack standards

Two different steps modes (8/16 and 127)

Double and single clock rate

Externally clockable

External filter input with blend control

Notes: CV/Audio Mixer and Dual VCA

CV sections

Blend has two CV sections each with:

Input (normalled to a +5V signal):
Attenuverter
Output

CV Mixer section

Blend takes the outputs of the two CV sections and offers the following:

Min output
Max output
Comparator output (level brought down to 4.5V)
Sum output

The min and max sections do not attempt to be precision min/max measurements. They will be within two diode drops of the actual min or max voltage.

VCA Sections:

There are two VCA sections that are also have a mix output. The CV input for each VCA is normalled to the output of a CV section. The VCA circuits are LM13700 based so they will slightly color the sound. The response curve is nearly linear but offers a slight exponential curve.

Power:

40 mA +12V
40 mA -12V

25 mm deep

Notes: An 8HP redesign of the Erica Synths Swamp module which was originally inspired by the famous Wiard Wogglebug module. Bog has moved the smooth range switch to the front panel and added an input for the S&H circuit (commonly called the Heart input).

Notes: CEM3340 Based Oscillator

A triangle core oscillator that is based on the same CEM3340 chipset used in legendary synths (SH-101, Prophet 5, MemoryMoog). Offers a wide frequency range from 80s cycles up to 40kHz.

Four waveform outputs (TRI, SAW, PULSE, SINE)

V/OCT tracking over 5+ octaves

Linear FM with attenuator

Choice of hard sync or soft sync (set via jumper on back)

PWM attenuator and input (normalled to 5V)

Size: 6hp

Notes: Cara (uMarbles)

This is a new build of a micro version of Mutable Instruments Marbles. It retains all the functionality of the original full-sized module but takes up less space. It comes with jack lights that can be disabled via a jumper on the back.

These modules use tall bushing potentiometers to offer a more stable feel. You can see the difference in the last picture. You will feel much less wiggle with the tall bushing (left) than with traditional trimmer style (right).

The module is fully assembled, tested, and calibrated. The calibration is done with a 6.5 digit multimeter, itself recently calibrated, to ensure you get the highest accuracy from your module. Eurorack power cable included.

Width: 10HP
Depth: 34mm
Height: 3U
Power Consumption: +12V: 80mA -12V: 20mA

Notes: Clouds

This is a new build of a Mutable Instruments Clouds. This module is identical to the now discontinued factory made Clouds. This module loads parasites 2.01 Firmware by default.

The module is fully assembled, tested, and calibrated. Eurorack power cable is included.

Notes: Dual VCA (dVCA) - 1U Intellijel Format

DVCA is a dual VCA based on the Mutable Instruments Veils. It features two separate voltage controlled amplifiers, both with a gain and a response curve potentiometer, that is variable from linear to exponential. The outputs are normaled, so when no patch cable is present on output 1, output 2 will contain both signals, allowing the module to be used as a mixer. Several DVCAs can be daisy-chained for voltage controlled mixer operation.

Comes with jack lights that can be disabled via a jumper on the back.

The panel is an After Later Audio black panel with gold accents.

The module is fully assembled and tested. Eurorack power cable included.

Notes: DVCA

DVCA is a dual VCA based on the Mutable Instruments Veils. It features two separate voltage-controlled amplifiers, both with a gain and a response curve potentiometer, that is variable from linear to exponential. The outputs are normalized, so when no patch cable is present on output 1, output 2 will contain both signals, allowing the module to be used as a mixer. Several DVCAs can be daisy-chained for voltage-controlled mixer operation. It comes with jack lights that can be disabled via a jumper on the back.

These modules use tall bushing potentiometers to offer a more stable feel.

The module is fully assembled and tested. Eurorack power cable included.

Notes: ADSR Style Envelope Generator

An ADSR style envelope generator based on the CEM3310 chipset, found in many classic synthesizers (Pro One, Prophet 5, MemoryMoog). We have added a small twist, end of attack and end of release delayed triggers. The module offers this rich set of features packed into 6HP.

Attack, Decay, Sustain, and Release controls with CV inputs for each.

Threshold controls the required gate level to trigger the envelope

Time range is configurable via jumper on back (shortest attack is 0.5ms and longest is 750ms)

End of attack delayed trigger

End of release delayed trigger

Length of the gate signal controls the length of the sustain phase

Retrig the attack while the gate is still high

Size: 6hp

Notes: A multimode filter offering LPF, BPF, HPF, and NOTCH simultaneous outputs in 6HP.

Low pass filter (4 pole)

Band pass filter

High pass filter

Notch filter

Two audio inputs

Two FM inputs with an attenuverter for FM1

v/oct tracking for cutoff CV

CV over Resonance

Resonance will reach self-oscillation

Size: 6hp

Notes: Take your gates and generate triggers and take your triggers and generate a gate.

Gate to Trigger section:
Takes a gate signal and give a trigger output on both the rise and fall of that gate. The IN LED will illuminate while the gate input is high.

Trigger to Gate section:
Takes a trig signal to start a gate signal and is normalized from the fall output in the Gate to Trig section. The gate length knob controls the gate length. The fall output will generate a trigger at the end of the gate. The OUT LED will illuminate while the gate output is high.

This is in the 1U Intellijel format.

Notes: This is a new build of a micro sized Mutable Instruments Plaits called Knit.

These modules use tall bushing potentiometers to offer a more stable feel.

The module is fully assembled, tested, and calibrated. Eurorack power cable is included.

Width: 6HP
Depth: 25mm
Height: 3U
Power Consumption: 12V: 50mA -12V: 5mA

Notes: This is a new build of a Monsoon, which is a variation of Mutable Instruments Clouds with separate CV and controls for the 4 "blend" functions. The 4 LEDs on the sliders indicate incoming control voltage for the 4 main parameters. The button which was used to select blend parameters now simply switches what the 4 LEDs display (audio input monitoring or monitoring the 4 blend amounts.) Parasites 2.01 firmware is loaded by default. Alternative firmware can be loaded by request.

The module is fully assembled, tested, and calibrated. Eurorack power cable is included.

Width: 12HP
Depth: 22mm
Height: 3U
Power Consumption: +12V:120mA -12V:10mA

Notes: Morcom Expander for micro Turing Machine (Alan)

An expander for After Later's Alan module (a smaller version of the Turing Machine) that exposes the pulse outputs from the main Alan module. You get 7 seven random outputs and then 4 that are derived from other 7 outputs. When 1 and 2 are high then the 1+2 outputs is high. You can get some great rhythmic effects using these in conjunction with the main stepped CV output.

The module comes with the required cable to connect to the main module. The panel is designed to compliment Alan, After Later's micro version of the Turing Machine.

The module comes with a 1 year warranty.

Notes: This is a buffered/active mult with LED indicator. You get two channels of 1 to 3 multiples within a 2HP module. The output of channel 1 is normalled to channel 2 so it can also be treated as a 1 to 6 multiple as well.

Active vs Passive mults:

With a passive mult you are effectively just plugging multiple things into the same jacks. This will often cause some voltage drop in each of the signals. With an active (or buffered) mult you will not get any voltage drop from the original signal.

Comes with a black and gold panel, power cable and one year warranty.

Usage note:

The red stripe of the power ribbon cable goes towards the top of this module.

Notes: This is a new build of the Mutable Instruments Peaks module. This module is identical to the now discontinued factory-built Peaks. Peaks offers a unique approach to CV and adds in some tweak-able drum options as well. Stock firmware is loaded by default. Dead Man’s Catch available on request.

The module is fully assembled and tested. Eurorack power cable included.

Notes: Pique (uPeaks)

Pique is a micro version (4HP) of the popular Peaks module from Mutable Instruments. It can be an ADSR-style envelope generator, an LFO and a drum emulator.

The module is calibrated, comes with a power cable, and a one year warranty.

Notes: Popple is an 8hp multimode stereo filter based on the Mutable Instruments Ripples V1 filter section. Popple maintains the buttery smoothness of Ripples filter while giving you two separate audio paths. The audio paths share a resonance, control, a frequency cutoff control, resonance CV input, and a v/oct cutoff CV input. Each channel then has it’s own cutoff CV input with attenuverters (which are normalled to a 2.5V signal).

Popple will also self-oscillate at high resonance settings, when coupled with the v/oct CV control, it can also act as a dual sine wave oscillator.

Notes: An 8HP version of Mutable Instruments Peaks that adds CV inputs and attenuverters for each of the four parameters and adds attenuverters for each of the outputs.

It can be an ADSR-style envelope generator, an LFO and a drum emulator.

Additional Dead Man's Catch firmware modes:

Basic (original modes):
Envelope
LFO
Tap LFO
Bass/Snare Drums

Alternative ENV:

Notes: STEPS has three functional blocks:

Internal clock:
Rate control and output

Burst generator:
Pulses output which generates 8 pulses on every trigger
Gate output which is high during the burst event
EOB output which fires at the end of a burst event

Random Looping Stepped CV Generator:
R.gate output outputs a random gate during a burst event
Random stepped output or a loop of 8 steps.
Steps output with attenuverter. The Steps output is held low while there is no burst event.

You can either use this as a random stepped CV source or as a repeating 8 stepped CV source. You then can trigger the burst generator to play the 8 step loop or 8 random steps. All of this can use the internal or external clock signals. To get more complex patterns you can daisy chain STEPS modules together by tying together their clocks and sending EOB to TRIG. This way you can generate 16 step patterns (or longer).

When first turning on STEPS, you will need to run the module in RAND mode for at least 8 steps to fill the shift register with data.

A caveat about STEPS:
If a trigger is received off beat from the internal clock, the first step duration will be shortened.

Power:

75 mA +12V
65 mA -12V

Size: 25 mm deep

Notes: This is the After Later Audio take on the classic Slope Generator module first introduced by Serge back in the 1970s. The module is really a jack of all trades as it can be a slew limiter, envelope generator, oscillator (both LFO and audio rate), and function generator.

This stays true to the original design by offering both a unipolar and bipolar output while adding separate controls for exp/log for both rise and fall and a gate/sustain function to get full ADSR envelopes.

The rise output is high during the rising portion of the cycle and fall output is high during the falling portion of the cycle.

Use the IN input to get standard slew limiter functionality.

Use the GATE input to trigger an ADSR envelope and then use the sustain control to control the level of the sustain. Rise will control the attack and fall controls both the decay and release times. You can also use the GATE input while using a cycle mode and this will adjust the 0V level to the sustain level. This gets some great effects with audio rate frequencies on the on the rise/fall controls.

There are two rate modes controllable by a jumper on the back. The module is set to AUDIO mode at the factory.
LFO mode - 10min/cycle to 115hz
AUDIO mode - 75s/cycle to 1.2kHz

Power:

55 mA +12V
30 mA -12V

Notes: uO_C

This is a new build of Micro Ornament & Crime, a variant of the popular Ornament & Crime designed by mxmxmx. The firmware is Stock by default.

Notes: uTides v2

uTides is a micro version (8HP) of the Mutable Instruments Tides v2/2018. It retains all of the original functionality of the full size version, both software and hardware. Its core is a triangle function generator and waveshaper that can be used as an LFO, oscillator, AD-style envelope generator (EG), and AR-style EG. Tons of utility nicely packed into 8HP.

The module is calibrated, comes with a power cable, and a one year warranty.

Notes: Deckard's Dream MkII is an eight-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer in desktop format. It is inspired by a certain cinematic sound from the late 1970s and early 1980s.

The synth features a fully analog signal path with two independent layers per voice. Discrete waveshapers help to reproduce the oddities of the original waveforms, especially the sawtooth glitch, which is a big part of the CS-80 sound. An autotune function assures that all 16 VCOs are tracking perfectly. It even offers detune and microtuning settings for a more vintage feel. With the addition of MIDI implementation, 256 presets (which can be managed on the integrated OLED display) and an upcoming software editor provided by Spektro Audio, this vintage inspired poly synth is at home in any modern studio.

For each layer, the synth offers a VCO with square, saw and sine waveforms, discrete 12 dB HP and LP filters with separate resonance controls, an ADSR for the filter with adjustable initial and attack levels, and an ADSR dedicated to the VCA. The synth also provides velocity and aftertouch controls for filter brilliance and volume levels.

Furthermore, polyphonic aftertouch gives Deckard's Dream expression that has only been possible on a very small number of synthesizers. MPE technology (using controllers by ROLI, LinnStrument, Haken) takes this even further with the addition of polyphonic pitch bend.
The Deckard's Dream MkII delivers everything the previous version did, in a new thin and light tabletop format with woodsides or rack-ears (both included). It also brings additional controls over Sustain modes and timing.

The synth is build in Japan, Tokyo, using only high quality electronic components.

Notes: The EHX Nano Metal Muff was built for the player who demands nothing less than hard-hitting distortion and an intense, aggressive sound. It’s a combination of weaponized distortion and an extremely powerful EQ section that provides all the flexibility and tone-shaping needed to dial in an array of ultra-heavy sounds.

The Nano Metal Muff’s newly designed noise gate is a superb addition to this high-gain pedal and eliminates unwanted hum when you stop playing. It features a noise floor threshold control (GATE) and its own LED to indicate when the gate is engaged.

A compact footprint and intelligent, straight forward controls complete the picture.

Notes: Small but perfectly formed, a clever multiple from Erica's compact Pico range. Active buffering to prevent signal loss and two-part A and B setup for 1-3 plus 1-2 or 1-5 configuration.

CV1-CV4 can route the external 0-5V CV signals to any of the above parameters including LFOs. Also negative amounts are processed.

LIN.FM This is a true analog dedicated CV FM modulation input for the bass drum VCO. It only works linear-wise and does not offer musical semitones across the CV scale.

ACC This is a CV input for the kick drum accent / velocity. This input may also trigger the kick drum dynamically if the ACC trigger mode is set and the sequencer is able to generate dynamic pulses.

LFO The ModBase 09 has 2 LFOs that work on the pitch of the bass drum. The LFO always starts syncronous to the gate trigger.

The wave forms are: saw up, saw down, sine+/-, triangle+/-, rectangle+/- and portions of it.

Notes: BLN is a 4 channel audio level converter designed to interface line or "pro" audio levels to modular audio levels. It features 2 independent converters with 2 channels each.

Converter 1: Line level/Balanced to Modular Level

The inputs for the top converter are for converting -10dB or +4dB signal levels (balanced or unbalanced) to +/-5V modular levels. Each channel can be set individually for +4 or -10 using channel 1 and 2 of the DIP switched

Converter 2: Modular level to Balanced Lined

The inputs for the bottom to converters accept a +/-5V modular audio level and converts them to a BALANCED +4 dB or -10 dB audio level. Each channel can be set individually for +4 or -10 using channel 3 and 4 of the DIP switched.

For balanced signals, simply use a 3.5mm TRS to 1/4" TRS Cable or 3.5mm TRS to 3.5mm TRS cable with a 1/4" TRS adapter. Unbalanced signals should use a 3.5mm TS cable

Notes: F8R is a 8 channel, 16hp control surface for Eurorack

16HP Width, 20mm Depth
Current Draw: +12V 50 mA, -12V 40 mA

Basic Usage instructions:

Front:

Voltage Select switches: Independent for each channel. Does NOT affect MIDI/I2C data

Slider LED color: To change the LED color, simply remove the cap and rotate the square LED 180s. Do NOT force the LED back in, it should slide in easily, may require wiggling.

Rear:

Power Header: Standard 10pin power cable, there is NO polarity for this connection. It can be connected either way

MIDI Out Header: This is a 4 pin header but only 3 or 2 connections need to be used. To connect to a DIN cable, either GND, 5 (to pin 5, current sink/aka -), and 4 (to pin 4, current source/aka +) should be used. For internal module to module connections, only pin 4 and 5 should be used. The ground pin is only for the shield in a midi cable, it is never connected on a midi input and isnt necessary for the short module to module lengths

I2C Header: 3 pin header to connect to other I2C devices in your rack, this is an unbuffered connection so cable lengths should be as short as possible (20cm/6" recommended). There are 4.7k pull up resistors on this connection

Module Orientation jumpers: There are 3 of these jumpers which determine how the module operates depending on if the jacks are on top or bottom. They will come installed in the position matching your panel but can be changed should you want to flip it. "INV" is Jacks on Top, the white position is jacks on bottom. Changing these jumpers will change the numbering of the faders from left to right (1->8) in both MIDI and I2C and will invert the voltage response (i.e. 10->0V from top to bottom). The jumper is shown in the "jacks on top" position in the pic below. ALL THREE JUMPERS MUST BE IN THE SAME POSITION for the module to operate correctly.

Module Config DIP switch: This allows you to switch between I2C Follower and I2C Leader modes easily. Simply move the switch to the "lead" position and restart the module (you can press the blue reset button once). The other 3 positions are for future expansion and not currently implemented.

Connector for Expander: This connects the F8R to the I/O expander. The cable is attached to the expander. Note the keyway at the top of the part, the connecter will ONLY connect one way

Notes: F8R Output Expander adds 3 TRS midi outputs (multiples of the MIDI out of the 8m), 3 fully buffered I2C TRS headers, and an optional 1x3 TRS Through.

I2C:

The 3 I2C outputs are fully buffered and allow for very long connections to other devices. They are all multiples of the I2C output of the 8m.

MIDI:

MIDI Out: Single Output from 8m. If nothing is plugged into this jack, the MIDI data is forwarded to the 1x3 MIDI through.

MIDI IN: MIDI input to the 1x3 MIDI through, connecting an input will disconnect the MIDI out from the 8m. This input can accept TRS MIDI A or B cables

Multiple MIDI Outs: Fully buffered midi outs

2HP Width, 22mm Depth, TRS MIDI TYPE A outputs

Current Draw: N/A, Connects to 8m

Notes: mBrane is a 4 channel midi to CV interface based on opensource Yarns. The device includes a 1.5m 3.5mm TRS to Midi male cable (Type B). This is the brand new Rev1.1 of the device which now features PSImidi which allows ANY type of TRS midi cable to be used on the input. Type A or B, male or female, all will work.

Running firmware 1.5
Multichannel MIDI to CV/Gate conversion

Yarns is a MIDI interface providing up to 4 channels of very accurate CV/Gate conversion, which can be assigned to up to 4 voices.

In single voice mode, note, velocity, modulation and aftertouch (or other CC) CV are produced, along with a gate, a trigger, and a clock/reset output.

In two voices mode, two channels of note, modulation or aftertouch CV are produced, along with two gates, and clock/reset outputs.

Finally, in four voices mode, four pairs of CV/Gate outputs are provided.

Each voice has a built-in digital LFO to interpret modulation wheel messages as a vibrato; can respond to pitch-bend messages; or can be smoothed with a glide/portamento control - no need for a dedicated module and patches to get the right response from a MIDI keyboard!

Monophonic and polyphonic

The 2 and 4-voice modes are available both in a "polyphonic" and "multitimbral" flavour. The former receives chords from one single MIDI channel and dispatches them to the voices; while the later provides independent monophonic parts - which can be addressed to different MIDI channels, keyboard ranges, or even velocity levels.

Various note priority modes (low, high, last) and polyphonic allocation schemes (voice-stealing, random, cyclic) allows you to fine-tune the CV/Gate conversion to your playing style.

With sequencing and note transformation...

Each part can generate sequences either through an arpeggiator/euclidean sequencer combo; or with a SH-101 style sequencer with step-by-step recording, storing up to 64 notes. The module can sync to an external MIDI clock, and generate a clock/reset output at any subdivisions of the MIDI clock.

...and even more advanced features.

Other unique features include support for microtunings (either through standard MIDI messages or from a selection of historical tunings or indian ragas), just intonation, and an audio output mode which can transform one, two, or four of the CV outputs into simple digital oscillators.

Notes: Introducing MicroTest, a eurorack adaptation of the MI module Tester.

Notes: 6HP Micromodule of Opensource Rings

Notes: 8HP Micromodule based on Opensource Frames.

This devices comes with Parasites 1.1 firmware

Notes: 10HP Edges Clone with integrated midi interface and PSImidi which allows any TRS midi cable to be used.

MIDI Functionality:

MIDI Learn: Press this button and send a midi note. The device will use that channel as the base channel

MIDI Mode: This button cycles between two operational modes.

1. 4 single voices trigger on 4 midi channels starting on the base MIDI channel (i.e. base channel is channel 2 so the voices are mapped over channels 2, 3, 4, 5)

2. Simple Poly mode where each voice plays on a different note on the same midi channel

Note about MIDI and Gating: The gate is normalled OPEN by the Gate 1 input. This is by design but will also force the gate open when the device is triggered by midi. Placing a dummy jack will break the open normal the gate will trigger via MIDI normally

Notes: This is 2 x opensource branches. The input of channel one is normalled to all other inputs so you can run this as 1 to 4, 2x 1 to 2, etc. Dual Color LEDs on sliders

Notes: Remix the remix! Back to the segment display, added Modulation LEDs for Timbre and color.
