Precision Analogue Filter vs. Valve Timbre Sculpting // Swell from Bartola Instruments

video upload by DivKid and Bartola Instruments

"Here we have Swell the new filter and valve (tube for those in the US) sculpting Eurorack module from Bartola Instruments. This is the first commercially released Eurorack module from Bartola and follows many years of valve hi fi work and hundreds of Eurorack prototypes made in super small runs for musicians and friends. Swell offers masses of customisable sound sculpting marrying its precision low pass filtering with high flexible valve control. Whether it's cleaner, yet warm and gently compressed waves or all out untamed chaos there's a lot to explore as you'll see in the patches."
