The Verbos Electronics Polyphonic Envelope Module is explored in this article, which is a set of attack-hold-decay envelope generators that can be used independently or together. The module features a unique cascade logic that allows the envelopes to trigger sequentially in three modes, with each envelope having its own gate input, CV output, and end pulse output. This means that the module can be used in up to four-voice polyphonic patches or patches combining the cascades and independent gating. Additionally, all parameters of the module can be voltage controlled. The article highlights the Skew controls that allow for changing times as each new envelope turns on, as well as the facility to make the envelope level 10 volts and get lower as they cascade or start lower and end at 10 volts by the fourth envelope.

In this article, we explore the Manifold Research Centre TetragridDoor to the Stars Eurorack Expander Module. This unique module opens six Einstein-Rosen bridges, also known as wormholes, allowing you to send external CV inputs to perturbate the gravitational interactions of the Tetragrid star map system. The module features hyperspace switches to open and close the portals/inputs and allows cascading of signals if only one input is patched. By connecting the CV output to different pads on the playing board, you can affect the internal behavior of the Tetragrid. This module offers a range of possibilities, including stalling or syncing the Tetragrid cycles and producing FM-like behaviors. The use of the hyperspace switch adds unpredictability and playability to your patch. The module is capable of handling +10V/-10V signals without any issue. Overall, the TetragridDoor to the Stars module provides a unique and chaotic exploration of the cosmos within your Eurorack system.
