via Tiptop Audio"It’s time to get ready to clear up 28HP of your precious modular space for a unique sonic experience, watch out, the Z-DSP is coming your way. The module is currently in the final stages of beta testing and the first batch is expected to be available sometime in November. A number of the Z-DSP’s components are custom made and supplied to us in small quantities; as a result the first run is limited to 40 modules and we hope to have another batch made during December.
One of the unique features of the Z-DSP is its ability to change applications on-the-fly with the algorithm cartridges. The first cartridge to be offered for the Z-DSP is the Dragonfly Delay, a collection of 8 time-based VC-Stereo-Delay algorithms that behave gently and sweetly, but, with the twist of a knob, switch of a button, or patch addition, it can suddenly become extremely rude and unexpectedly bend the space-time of your waves in a unique manner. Next in line will be the Spider Filter, a collection of 8 brutal VC-Digital Filters (VCDF) with deep cut/pass filters and attacking resonance that really bites. This cartridge is currently rated NC-17 here in Hollywood, so beware.
Coming soon..."

Z3000>Z2040>Z-DSP filters >Z5000 by Tiptop Audio
"Had some fun last night testing the filters of the Z_DSP. The baseline is made using Z3000 PWM pulse into the Z2040. This then get into the Z-DSP, the Z-DSP use the Bat Filter Cartridge, and the output of the Z-DSP goes in stereo to the Z5000 that adds the stereo delay. The growling are Frequency sweeps of the Z-DSP Bat Filter cartridge using program No.7 VC - 4Pole Digital State Variable Filter. At the end of the track I replace the Z-DSP cartridge to the Dragonfly Delay and switch the Z5000 to Reverb to make some strange pad. This pad is made by modulating the Z-DSP clock and a tiny bit of the VC-Time on both channels."
