STEREO DRADD is an experimental time-based audio processor for the eurorack system. The module can stretch, bend and invert time through granular synthesis, modified sample playback and tapped delay lines. Intended as a tool for adding synthetic and unnatural ambiance/coloration to your synth patches.

"I got carried away checking out a couple of new modules from SCRAPCODE MODULAR: AXIOM and WONK. What started as a quick initial test and exploration, turned into this full 140bpm set with techno and psytrance vibes.
I'll play the set for a bit, then go over the entire rig, and explain what does what and how it all works together."
1. AXIOM - Euclidean Rhythm Generator - Product Overview
2. AXIOM - 9/8 Jam
3. AXIOM - Long Pattern
AXIOM is a Eurorack module based on the popular concept of the Euclidean Rhythm, where a defined number of HITS is evenly distributed throughout a sequence.
It allows two CV inputs for each if its four lanes – one for the number of HITS in each lane, and a second for either the number of STEPS in each sequence or for an OFFSET to its starting position.
Each sequence can be assigned a different length, causing the rhythms in each lane to move in and out of phase with one another. A pattern of up to 21,840 steps is possible before repeating if the right settings are chosen!*
An internal clock or external CV trigger can be used to progress the sequencer.
AXIOM is available as either a DIY Kit or as a fully assembled product.
For more information please visit www.scrapcode.co.uk
*Hint – use STEPS MODE and set the STEPS values to 13, 14, 15 and 16.

04:51 Outro
WONK is a four lane envelope generator with a twist!
Each lane shares the same Attack and Release controls, but these can be further modified by the Wonk parameter:
More Wonk will make the top envelopes longer and the bottom envelopes shorter.
Less Wonk will make the top envelopes shorter and the bottom envelopes longer.
WONK can run in Attack-Release, Hold-Release or Looping modes, and is available fully built or as a DIY kit.

Full disclosure: while I have bought many, many Dreadbox synths over the years, Dreadbox did send this one to me for free.
Here, I explore the Artemis for the first time, mainly initializing patches and seeing where they lead me. I find that while other demos have done a great job of showing off the wild and weird, the Artemis mainly leads me to two places: slow beautiful expansive pads, and bouncy unison basses.
There are a few things that elevate this device over other table-top modules, like the Nymphes: the spread of stereo voices (for both unison and polyphonic patches), effects (very decent sounding delay and reverbs, for example), and an internal drive for shaping the character/personality. Plus, all of these patches took just a minute or two to set up; the Artemis has a fast and friendly interface for exploring.
There are at least three ideas here that I might potentially develop further, which is quite a high hit rate for a first exploration of a synth. I can't wait to get back to the city and put the Artemis on the table with some friends.
There is one notable shortcoming to the Artemis as of today (4th July 2025): its envelopes have something that occasionally makes them get very clicky at onset of gate/note. I'm not sure what's causing it, but contributing factors seem to include using the internal drive, and not just at very fast attack rates. In any case, it's a bummer. I've read online that Dreadbox are currently working on this in terms of a firmware update, but I don't personally have any firsthand information. The clickiness really can interfere with a project, so know if you're thinking of buying, you should plan to work around this shortcoming. (My personal opinion: don't buy gear for promised or hoped-for firmware updates, because they may never come, and they may never solve the problem.)
But otherwise, Artemis is a great synth. Lots of personality, strangely well behaved at times, very good at bouncy basses, and very easy to design interesting sounds with.
Thanks for listening.
The cover song is one of my very favourites, "Poor Edward" by Tom Waits."
"In this video, we explore the Dreadbox Artemis—a 6-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer that combines vintage warmth with modern flexibility. Featuring dual VCOs with waveshaping, a powerful filter section, and high-quality stereo effects by Sinevibes, Artemis is designed for expressive sound design. With MPE support, polyphonic aftertouch, and a built-in sequencer, it's a versatile tool for any synth enthusiast."

"Last 'long' video before a summer break (I'll be eventually uploading some 'Shorts' during July 😉)
It's been quite some time that I didn't make a "from scratch" video, so here we go again! (See all my "From scratch" videos) [embed below]
On the setup side on the sequencer (Keystep Pro), before recording:
I defined the tempo and number of bars of each track
I setup the scale (Dorian)
I setup the tracks I wanted to be transposed in real-time (tracks 2 = Minitaur and 3 = Streichfett).
The video starts with the recording on Track 2, of the BASS line (Moog - Minitaur), then on Track 3 the CHORDS/STRINGS (Waldorf - Streichfett), on Track 1 the DRUMS (Sonic Potions x Erica Synths - LXR-02), on Track 4 the ARP (Dreadbox - Nymphes + Strymon Timeline delay).
I recorded part of the DRUMS in real-time, and the KICK in step mode (hence being able to setup randomness on some steps and conditions too, i.e. the step plays on the fourth time it's triggered only...)"
