Precision Voltages

Sometimes real precision is required with pitch control voltages - this module features a super accurate "Cal" output, which is accurate to <1mV over 20V, translates to one cent over 20 octaves! It is ideal for calibrating the scaling of VCO's, indeed we have been using our own version of this circuit to calibrate our own MiniMod VCO's for the last three years.

As well as being a precision voltage source it is also a very accurate voltage adder, it has two channels (A & B) and both full volts (octaves) or 1/12th volt increments (notes) can be either added to or subtracted from the incoming signal. Perfect for adding a voltage offset to the output of a sequencer or it can be used to add switchable octaves to a VCO which only has coarse and fine tunes controls.

It also has a "mix" output, which allows either A channel on its own, or with the three way toggle switch channel B can either be added to, or subtracted from channel B, and this is in addition to the addition and subtraction per channel mentioned earlier..

Entropic Doom

This 14HP wide module is a voltage controlled noise based oscillator, or noisillator for short. It generates 1/f noise and this is then sent through a feedback loop which allows the noise to be "tuned" to varying degrees depending on the settings of the frequency and resonance controls, or incoming frequency or resonance CV's. The tuned circuit can be FM modulated too, for some thunderous sweeping sounds. We have bright and dark outputs, which are pre and post filter respectively. The Bright output will always have a degree of noise present in the signal, whereas the Dark output can be tuned noise only when 4 pole resonance is selected. We also have an external Sync input, which will reset the resonant waveform, and we also have an Audio input, so that an external signal can be mixed into the resonant loop. Combinations of external waveforms to these two inputs can create some massive drone sounds, or sweeping sync sounds.

There is also an XOR ring modulator, which can be used as a module in its own right too. Lastly, we have an XOR amplifier, which is another independant circuit that can be used to add noise and distortion to any audio signal.

Lunar Module

Here's a bit of fun for all fans of space missions from the previous century! This module is designed to re-create the ground to space and space to ground transissions from the Apollo era.

To be "Mission Control Houston" the Quindar PTT (push to talk) button adds a short 2,525Hz Quindar tone to the start of the transmission, then at the end of the message the PTT button or switch is released and a short 2,475Hz Quindar tone is added to the audio. The bandwidth is slightly reduced in this mode.

For "Astronaut comms" we press the Capsule PTT switch, which allows us to add colored noise, distortion, bandwidth reduction and either hum or LGM (Little green men space tone) noise to the audio signal.

Obviously the Lunar Module can also be used to add noise, hum, distortion, bandwidth reduction and LGM noise tone to any modular level audio too, and if the mic is left attached theremin like sounds can be added too with careful loudspeaker feedback.

Alex4 is ready for Superbooth 2019! 

Come around in room 354 and check out the new modules in a cosy atmosphere! 

We are at Superbooth! Nearly all of our brands that are exhibiting will showcase some new products. We will inform our shops about these after Superbooth with hopefully more details like release dates and pricing.

We recommend checking the brands webpages and social media channels for more details for now.

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXY and Z.... these links might help to check their news online before going to Superbooth.

For the booth number, please go here.

ACL, AJH Synth, Analogue Systems, Animal Factory Amps, Birdkids, Black Corporation, Cwejman, Doepfer, E-RM Erfindungsbüro, Endorphin.es, Eowave, Flame, Frap Tools, Haken Audio, Humble Audio, Kenton, Meng Qi, Sherman, Supercritical Synthesizers, TouellSkouarn, UDO Audio, Verbos Electronics and Vermona...

see you soon!

Analogue Systems will present eight new modules at the Superbooth 2019.

The faceplates have been reworked with a more streamlined panel design and elongated holes to allow easier placement in a Doepfer-style case. They also feature two power supply connectors so that they can be connected either to an Analogue Systems or to a Doepfer power supply.

Their outstanding audio quality has remained untouched!
