Reticulum Versio vs Soma Cosmos

video upload by John Schussler

"The Soma Cosmos 'Drifting Memory Station' is unfortunately only available as a very large pedal unit. I've been on the lookout for a Eurorack module that could do the same thing, and found a firmware called 'Reticulum Versio' (created independently of Noise Engineering) that replicates much of the Cosmos functionality.

Now that I have both, I figured I'd try them out next to each other and see how they compare. The Cosmos has a few more features and control, which is to be expected since it's got more real estate to work with, but the Reticulum captures the core of Cosmos.

Many thanks to Ohnoabear (from ModWiggler) for his Reticulum firmware, and for sharing it with the community.
