Superbooth 2023: Knobula - Pianophonic

video upload by sonicstate

"We spoke to Jason from Knobula at Superbooth 2023, who showed us their new 8-voice polyphonic wavetable and sample playback synthesizer Pianophonic. Based on the concept of a piano with three strings and a hammer, the synthesizer offers piano-esque and other extended piano sounds. The piano sound is wavetable-based with 16 different slots and multi-sampled wavetables across the keyboard, from high sounds to low sounds, and 256 waves in each wavetable that you can morphed through. Pianophonic also features three oscillators, where two can be assigned to a different sound, and chord memory. It has MIDI, CV, and gate control options, making it versatile and suitable for various applications.

Pianophonic will be available in September. Price: around £350, €400, $440"

Knobula's new Pianophonic module generates interesting sounds from piano samples.

Pianophonic Module Extended Demo

video upload by knobula

"In this demo we morph from Grand Piano to doom drone and back, then into some house style piano chops. Along they way we incorporate pure Piano wavetables and real hammer samples later combined with synthesiser waveforms as a side layer as we demonstrate the "piano not a piano" and "synth like a piano" duality of Pianophonic. Audio is direct out from the module with a bit of compressor/limiter to prevent overloading Youtube."

Introducing the Pianophonic wavetable and sample module from Knobula

video upload by knobula

"Pianophonic is an 8 voice polyphonic wavetable synthesiser that takes its inspiration from the piano’s string and hammer mechanism mixed with a bit of 90s digital keyboard charm..

Featuring 3 wavetable oscillators and a single sample playback engine per voice, Pianophonic generates rich and complex evolving sounds as well as extraordinary hard hitting piano-like sounds. With simple direct controls for all the parameters that matter, no confusing menus and all squeezed into 12hp of concentrated eurorack module. Featuring midi to Gate Out, Gate In, V/Oct, Chord Select and Wavetable morph CV inputs. Its a fully featured versatile polyphonic oscillator module that can sit at the core of your eurorack system."

Rachael + Deckard's Voice | Part 02 | Advanced Patching

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Part 01 has a strong focus on Deckard's Voice, this episode will shift to Rachael, the powerful 'helper oscillator' that supports FM, Ring Modulation and pitch envelopes. It provides a sine, saw and pulse waveform and a polarizing circuit to create metallic sounds from any source. It's Deckard's perfect companion module when you're looking for a more authentic CS80 experience. I also used Knobula's Poly Cinematic in an ultimate attempt to add polyphony. It sounds just awesome with Deckard + Rachael in the lead.

The last part of the video worked out extremely well so I hope you'll sit it out to the end. Love this combo!"

Knobula Kickain : The Last Kick Drum Eurorack Module You'll Ever Need

video upload by Perfect Circuit

"Check out even more details about the Kickain here : https://bit.ly/3S9BzQ2
Pick one up for your own rack today : https://bit.ly/3oDmE2T

Offering a dance floor staple with spectral mixing capabilities, Knobula's Kickain is a combination of a highly sculptable 909-inspired kick drum and stereo processing for internal and external mixdown.
This powerful module can wrangle your whole mix into a pulsing dancefloor HEATER, and isn't just limited to kick sounds. Percussive thuds, clicks, hats, and snare sounds are also achievable, and when paired with the on board reverb, the Kickain is a percussion sculpting POWERHOUSE."

Knobula Kickain and Poly Cinematic Modules - Sonic LAB

"Matt Hodson aka @MATTHS takes a look at two modules from Knobula - the Poly Cinematic - an 8 voice MIDI and CV controlled polyphonic or 56 oscillator mono synth with detune, CV controllable filter, reverb and envelope in just 12 HP and the Kickain Kick drum module which also has plenty of CV control as well as Accent, reverb and Sidechain function.

Both are currently available prices at roughly £320/$399

Achieving Filthy Nirvana with Knobula Kickain and Vult Freak

video upload by Red Means Recording

"A filthy look at two fun modules.
The Knobula Kickain is a kick drum module with reverb and stereo spectral sidechaining.
The Vult Freak is a super multi-mode filter with a TON of awesome filter models.
We'll give them both a nasty workout with our good friend, the Modbap Osiris wavetable oscillator.

Superbooth 22: Knobula - Kickain And Poly Cinematic

video upload by sonicstate

"Jason from Knobula welcomed us into his booth and let us see his new Kick module Kickain.

Kickain is the perfect pairing of a virtual analogue kick drum, reverb and side chain compressor. Designed to work in tandem simplifying rhythmic control over the dynamics of the music and intelligently managing low frequency artefacts, clashing frequencies or overlapping transients.

Poly Cinematic, Knobula's flagship module gets a firmware upgrade. It's a powerful compact poly synth that's simple to use with a dedicated knob or switch for each parameter. It boasts 7 oscillators per voice across 8 voices, and all the oscillators can be detuned for massive supersaw and beyond sounds. It also has an 8 chord memory, so you can access polyphonic sounds via CV gate.

Kickaine available now. Price £320

Poly Cinematic available now. Price: £329"
