PITTSBURGH MODULAR ANNOUNCES THE CHAIN REACTOR LIMITED EDITION MODULE


via Pittsburgh Modular

"Our second limited edition module, the Chain Reactor is a quadraphonic voltage influenced chaotic waveform generator. The module is available now exclusively at pittsburghmodular.com. Production of the Chain Reactor was limited to 50 modules and once it is gone, it is gone.

The Chain Reactor combines two of our classic VILFO modules with two additional free running LFOs to create an endless supply of chaotic fluctuations. VILFO1 and VILFO2 feature our unique voltage influence control. Voltage influence works differently than standard voltage control, it allows the incoming CV to mingle with the LFO waveforms in interesting ways, creating unique modulations and patterns. The output of each VILFO is a voltage controlled variable waveform that shifts from a triangle to square wave.

The Voltage Influence Circuit
A typical Voltage controlled oscillator works by using a CV input to directly control the oscillation frequency. The more voltage sent to the CV input, the higher the frequency of the oscillator. The lower the voltage, the lower the frequency of the oscillator. Voltage Influence works by using the CV input to attenuate the frequency of the oscillator while at the same time injecting some of the voltage from influence CV input to the feedback loop of the oscillator. Results can vary from subtle to chaotic. Subtle results can be similar to tremolo, shuffle, or soft reset while more extreme settings produce glitchy, rhythmic, chaotic fluctuations in the frequency of the oscillator."

KOMA Elektronik Introduces Attenuator Cable for Eurorack and More


Introducing: KOMA ATTENUATOR CABLE Published on Jul 31, 2014 KOMA Elektronik

"The Attenuator Cable is a cable with one jack input socket on one side, an output socket on the other side and a slider in the middle that gives the user the opportunity to attenuate both CV and audio signals traveling between modules. You simply connect a 3,5mm patch cable to the input socket of the Attenuator Cable and connect the output jack plug to any input of your liking. You can use the slider in the middle of the cable to attenuate and adjust the signal, easy peasy!

The cable design has been optimized to function with any CV or audio signal and with all known and widely available 3,5mm jack cables.

More information and sales:
http://koma-elektronik.com/?product=k...

KOMA Elektronik offers free worldwide shipping for all preorders of 5 cables or more made from our website! All pre-orders ship on August 21st 2014."

And the press release:

"After releasing the modular Kabelhänger at Musikmesse earlier this year, Berlin-based instrument manufacturer KOMA Elektronik has now released a new innovative solution for modular synthesists: the Attenuator Cable.

The Attenuator Cable is a cable with one jack input socket on one side, an output socket on the other side and a slider in the middle that gives the user the opportunity to attenuate both CV and audio signals traveling between modules. You simply connect a 3,5mm patch cable to the input socket of the Attenuator Cable and connect the output jack plug to any input of your liking. You can use the slider in the middle of the cable to attenuate and adjust the signal, easy peasy!

At KOMA we always understood the importance of attenuation, this is why we implemented control voltage attenuators in all of our modular designs; it's useful to keep everything running the way it is supposed to and to match voltages for different modular platforms. The Attenuator Cable gives you dedicated control for every signal coming from or going to modules without input attenuators, which there are a lot of! Since it is not a module, but a cable, you don't waste any space in your case and you can use as many cables as you like in one setup. The cable design has been optimized to function with any CV or audio signal and with all known and widely available 3,5mm jack cables.

The Attenuator Cable is available for preorders from KOMA Elektronik's website and from KOMA dealers worldwide. KOMA Elektronik offers free shipping for all pre-orders of 5 cables or more from our website!

MRSP is 9 € per cable (Incl. EU VAT) and 39 € for a pack of five cables."

Pics of the inside below.

"The Sequential Circuits Drumtraks was the first drum machine that supported MIDI. (The Drumtraks can also send DIN sync and clock.) And while the drum pads were not velocity-sensitive, you can control it via a MIDI keyboard and trigger it with different velocities. While the kick sound is a bit thin, the 13 8-bit sounds can be pitch-shifted dramatically, adding some flexibility.

VOICES
Main core 8 bits NEC D780C-1 CPU part of Z80 ZILOG family manages 6 channels:

Channel 1: Bass Drum
Channel 2: Snare / Rim
Channel 3: Tom 1 / Tom 2
Channel 4: Crash cymbal / ride Cymbal
Channel 5: Open / closed HH
Channel 6: Claps / tambourine / cabasa /cowbell

WAVETABLE
Features 13 PCM waveforms at 8 bits resolution stored on socket EPROMS Erasable Programmable Read Only Memories. Each sound features individual gain and a pitch tune quantised into 15 different steps.

EPROM
It is possible to change the soundset by swapping the eproms, use a prommer for this task.


FILTER
The TOM channels are filtered by famous chip Curtis Cem3320

SEQUENCER
Records in real-time mode or step mode
Recording quantisation at variable resolution levels from 1/2 to 1/96 in ten values: 1/2, 1/4, 1/6, 1/8, 1/12, 1/ 16, 1/24, 1/32, 1/48, 1/96 or swing shuffle.

SYNC
Internal frequency tempo range from 40 to 250 BPM, sync mode available in 2 ways:
1- digital Midi clock 
2- analog sync IN at 24 /48 /96 PPQ resolution
Drumtraks outputs at 24 or 48 PPQ resolution

MIDI
Each sound is triggered with velocity levels and pads output MIDi with dynamic.

MEMORY
Holds 3289 notes, 99 patterns (100 measure) and 99 songs.
Data can be saved either to :
- midi exclusive dump
- tape backup"
