"We would like to introduce a new module to the range! dhà

The dhà is a compact yet powerful stereo mixer module designed for seamless integration into Eurorack systems of any size. It features two stereo input channels, with the top channel including a built-in stereo VCA for expressive amplitude modulation and precise audio-tapered level control, all with a small footprint.

dhà also includes rear stereo I/O jacks, making it easy to expand your set up by connecting with other Instruō stereo mixing modules like càrn, cuïr and additional dhà units. Whether used independently or as part of a larger system, dhà delivers clean stereo mixing, flexible routing, and effortless expandability.

. Stereo two channel mixer
. Stereo two-quadrant VCA
. Audio-tapered level potentiometers
. Back jack connectivity expansion to dhà, càrn, and cuīr"

EF118 Vulcan's Hammer

video upload by electrofaustus

"This device is an accelerometer-controlled oscillator. It works by reading the position along a 180-degree x-axis and translating to a frequency. In the fully back position, the oscillator is at its lowest note – roughly 100hz (or D3 on the musical scale). As you rotate the hammer forward, pitch increases. In this position, the frequency is roughly 2000hz (or B6 on the musical scale). That’s about a 4-octave range. The controls are straightforward: A red push button on/off switch and a knob to control volume. The ¼ inch audio output jack is located at the bottom of the handle. It’s powered by 3 AAA batteries located inside the enclosure that come included in the unit when purchased. They can be easily replaced by unscrewing the base. Vulcan’s Hammer goes on sale today and retails for $200"

"Like the Roman God Vulcan, what if you could generate immortal oscillations from a mighty hammer? Ponder no more. Vulcan’s Hammer by Electro-Faustus allows you to call to the Gods by simply rotating the device along a 180 degree field. Note range is roughly 100Hz (D3) to 2000Hz (B6). That’s almost 4 octaves! Powered by 3 AAA batteries.

*Like all of our devices, the Vulcan’s Hammer is noisy and glitchy by design. Have fun with it!"

"No talking, just pretty sounds! Demo of all eight reverb structures in the Meris Mercury X. I'm noodling on Mutable Rings with Native Instruments Kontrol S61 mk III using the Oxi One as a MIDI-to-CV converter. I think it sounds absolutely gorgeous!

DYNACORD P20 Programmable Digital Drum Computer / Computer & Drum-to-Midi-Converter

Pics and listing links previously posted here.

"Quick functionnal demo of the Dynacord P20.

Though being a very simple digital drum expander the P20 has quite some comprehensive features.

It has 24 builtin sounds and 5 more can be added with cartridges, the same used for the Percuter.

Sounds can be played by triggers or by MIDI, and the unit can be used as a trigger to midi converter. When using MIDI you get dynamics over the sounds.

You can program 90 presets with any combination of sounds (or midi out only), volume, midi notes and channel, dynamics and a very effective 'echo' effect. It's a re trigger features that mimics an echo effect. I demo this features at the end of the video.

There is also a special midi mode where you have the whole 29 sounds available at hands. I demo this also in the video."

Video in the listing previously posted here.

"A true powerhouse module — rare, complex, and undeniably unique. The Zeroscillator from Cynthia is a thru-zero analog oscillator with advanced wavefolding and phase modulation capabilities. If you’re looking for a standard VCO, this isn’t it. If you want to explore FM synthesis and sonic territory most modules only dream of, this is exactly it.

This particular unit is in very good condition, with minor signs of use (mostly cosmetic — see photos). Functionally, it works exactly as it should.

Important note on depth:

This is a large module, clocking in at 36HP wide and approximately 90mm (3.5”) deep. It is not skiff-friendly, so make sure your case has the clearance."
