Modbap TRINITY Overview - Drum Synths, Cycle Modes & Stack Modes

video upload by Modbap Modular

Update: basic operations video added below.

"TRINITY is a 3 channel Digital Drum Synth Array packed into a 20hp eurorack synthesizer. Effectively, Trinity performs as 3 powerful drum voices packaged into one beastly drum module with a few tricks up its sleeve.

In this video we will explore the 4 drum synth algos...

BLOCK (Analog Inspired): Drum synth building blocks featuring sine and triangle core. Great for traditional electronic drum creation.

HEAP (Additive): Additive drum synth with 12 partials. Great for fun natural sounds and pitched percussive sounds (i.e. bells, chimes, steel drums, and wood blocks etc.).

NEON (FM): FM drum synth engine. Great for high quality FM drums, clangorous metallic percussion and more.

ARCADE (Noise): Quirky noise generator synth, reminiscent of classic 1980's arcade games sounds - zaps, crashes, explosions etc. Great for claps, hats, even some vinyl noise approximations, and all sorts of fun percussive and degraded noises.

Modbap TRINITY Overview - Cycle Modes & Stack Modes

"In this video we will explore the Modes...

Cycle Modes
The cycle modes can be enabled and disabled per channel.
‘Round Robin’ mode will switch between each drum synth type sequentially with each new trigger to the drum channel.
‘Random’ mode will generate a new random drum sound with each new trigger to the drum channel.

Stack Modes
The stack modes group the channels together allowing 2 or 3 drum channels to be triggered by the primary channel’s trigger and v/oct inputs.
Stacked drums can be spread out similar to unison mode on a traditional synthesizer. Stack modes are inspired by the characteristics of chopped breaks where drums tend to overlap and fan out depending on the content of the chopped source material.
