New MetaModule Expander, MetaButtons!

video upload by 4ms Company

"MetaButtons is an expander for MetaModule that adds eight buttons to your interface. You can connect up to four MetaButtons together, making it easy to expand your setup as much or as little as you need.

Within MetaModule, each MetaButton can be mapped to virtual buttons, switches of any size, or even knobs. You can also customize each button's behavior in MetaModule to suit your workflow—choose between toggle or momentary button modes.

A MetaButton can control up to 8 virtual parameters, enabling you to manage multiple functions with a single press.

MetaButtons gives you powerful, flexible control that will help PUSH your patch to the next level.

Available October 6th, 2025!"

4MS Meta Module: Demo & Explorations

video upload by Sarah Belle Reid

"In this video I share a walkthrough and demo of Meta Module made by 4MS. MetaModule is a Eurorack module that can act as a virtual modular synth, letting you swap out different modules and build virtual patches that you can interact with using the front panel knobs.

I'll start with an overview of what Meta Module is and how it works, then I'll walk through two different ways of building patches using Meta Module (directly on the module itself and using VCV Rack on your computer), and I'll share multiple different use cases for which Meta Module can be especially helpful. I'll also share lots of demos, patches, and sounds along the way!"
