Noise Engineering Introduces the Confundo Funkidos Four-Channel Rhythm Crossfader Eurorack Module

video upload by Noise Engineering



Press release follows:

Los Angeles, CA — Noise Engineering, known in part for their innovative utility modules, has released the highly anticipated Confundo Funkidos, a rhythm crossfader and performance utility, and successor to the immensely popular Confundo Funkitus.

Inspired by DJ performance techniques, Confundo Funkitus takes in eight trigger patterns, then uses a crossfader to combine them, apply probability, or swap between them as the user desires. Each channel also features a mute switch so that channels can be added and removed from a patch at will.

New to the second version is the addition of algorithmically generated Accent outputs, which create high and low gates based on input patterns and automatically bring life to any modulation destination. The BURN section of Confundo Funkidos has also been expanded with a new parameter, making it even easier to create fills on the fly. The Mute switches have also been upgraded, featuring a center position that removes a channel from BURN fills and sets its Accent output low while still outputting triggers.

“We’ve been thinking about a new version of Confundo Funkitus for a long time,” says Markus Cancilla, Noise Engineering’s Chief of Destruction. “Confundo Funkidos brings together everything we’ve learned in the years since the original was discontinued, and makes the original concept even more fun. We’re really excited to hear what people do with it.”

While Confundo Funkidos has double the outputs and even more parameters than the original, it’s still contained in the same 12 HP package. At this small size, it’s easy to integrate into performance skiffs, while its extensive inputs and outputs make patching it with larger systems a creative dream. And while it was designed with compactness in mind, its interface features excellent ergonomics, maintaining excellent performability.

Confundo Funkidos is now open for preorders. It ships starting January 9th at https://noiseengineering.us and at retailers globally.

Nation of Language | Weak In Your Light | Moog Sound Lab

video upload by Moog Music

"Breakthrough indie pop band Nation of Language enters the Moog Sound Lab in our hometown of Asheville, NC to play a rendition of 'Weak In Your Light' from their 2023 album release, ‘Strange Disciple’.

With bouncing synth sounds, beat-driven arpeggiators, and experimental analog tones, this Brooklyn-based band has been inspiring to watch from the start. This combination of unfamiliar yet irresistible sounds garnered a vast online fanbase during the COVID-19 pandemic and later sent them on a lengthy world-wide run of shows. Nation of Language is celebrated for mixing nostalgic synth-pop inspired hooks and melodies with a new age post-punk flare.

Watching this trio reimagine and perform their track on our Subsequent 37, Minimoog Model D, Moog One, Grandmother, and Matriarch is nothing short of magic. We invite you to experience the one and only--- Nation of Language."

Intellijel Xfade 1U: DJ-style Crossfader for Eurorack

video upload by Intellijel

Check with dealers on the right for availability.

"Xfade 1U is a classic DJ-style stereo crossfader, with a few extra tricks up its sleeve. The ‘A’ and ‘B’ sides both have L+R inputs. The crossfader blends two stereo input signals together — crossfading one into the other depending on the position of the slider and the selected Xfade Shape. The blended output appears at the MIX L and MIX R output jacks.

In addition, Xfade 1U can be used as a modulation source for controlling other modules, since the crossfader also outputs control voltages from the CV A and CV B jacks. A switch determines whether these voltages are unipolar (crossfading from 0V to 5V; and 5V to 0V), or bipolar (crossfading from -5V to +5V; and +5V to -5V). The two LEDs indicate the polarity and relative levels of the CV A and CV B signals.

Xfade 1U uses a precision Innofader™ crossfader submodule, with moving capacitance technology for smooth (almost frictionless) and precise control. This is the same part found on many high-end DJ mixers.

Features:

Smooth and ultra-low friction Innofader™ Mini-Innofader module with moving capacitance technology
Three crossfade shapes: DJ cut, Constant Power and Linear
Stereo or Mono operation
DC coupled inputs and outputs
Unipolar or Bipolar CV outputs
Output is chainable to intellijel Outs, Mixup, and Stereo Mixer 1U Modules via included 3-pin cable"
