"Handmade Analog Synthesizer Module MIDI controled By AtomoSynth

VCO: This synth features one analog square and saw waveform VCO (voltage controled oscillator) with a huge pitch range, from subsonic to ultrasonic sound.

Glide: effect control with a wide range that allows radical effects.

White noise generator with 2 modes: Mode1 triggers the VCO affecting the frequency and can create percussion like sounds. Mode2 mix the noise with the VCO signal, adding texture to the waveform.

LFO: One square and triangle waveform LFO (low frequency oscillator), that modulates the VCO for the vibrato effect creating old school arcade Atari-like sounds. Also it modulates the VCF (voltage controled filter) creating a tremolo effect. It has a led that shows the LFO rate.

VCF: (vactrol based Low Pass Filter) with cut off and ressonance controls that can be modulated by the LFO and the VCO depth, It also features a decay control with 3 modes: positive, flat, and negative.

envelope generator with attack and release control.

The Krakken features a MIDI to control voltage converter with a range of 5 octaves, You can play it with any midi keyboard, controler or midi sequencer, also you can connect the Krakken to your computer (with a usb to midi adaptor) and sequence with any midi software.

It can be set to any midi channel from 1 to 16, it has a display that shows the actual midi channel.

You can control any external analog synthesizer with the CV and Gate Outputs (1Volt/octave), even at the same time you can control the Krakken with a analog sequencer via the CV and Gate imputs.

Also you can connect many Krakken synthesizers in chain with its midi thru output to a computer or midi sequencer and each one will play a different midi channel.

The instrument is is housed in a clear, laser cut, acrilic case that shows the analog circuitry.

It is powered directly from 110V or 220V AC.
