  1. Beats from the Grids to Clouds: Crafting Sonic Nightmares

    In this article, we explore the thrilling world of crafting sonic nightmares using a combination of Eurorack modules. Starting with the Blue Lantern Modules Grids MK2, we delve into its percussion sequencing capabilities with Euclidean patterns. We then introduce the Maneco Labs Grone Wave, a lo-fi sample player with 8-bit textures and a MOJ transistor ladder filter modulated by an LFO. Moving on, the Nonlinear Circuits XOR module adds a touch of ring modulation with its simple yet effective design. We also highlight the Erica Synths Edu VCO, a DIY analog oscillator with versatile outputs. Finally, we explore the Wildfire Laboratories Equation Group, a passive resistor ladder DAC with various functions in a modular setup. Join us on this sonic journey from the grids to the clouds as we push the boundaries of sound design.

  3. The Versatile 2LFO Eurorack Module: A Double LFO with Variable Wave and Frequency Modulation Capabilities

    The In The Trees 2LFO Eurorack Module is a versatile double LFO module that offers variable wave and frequency modulation capabilities. With its frequency range from ~0.01Hz to 2Hz in slow mode and from 1.5Hz to 170Hz in fast mode, it provides users with a wide range of options for creating unique sounds. The module features 2 outputs for each oscillator - triangle and variable wave - which can be adjusted from a triangle to something close to a square wave. Additionally, users can modulate the wave shape on the variable wave output and perform frequency modulation with the penetration of the modulating signal into the output. This module is available as a full DIY kit.

  6. Exploring the AtoVproject Gaeto Black: The New Clock Logic Module That Rewards Exploration.

    The AtoVproject Gaeto Black is a new type of clocked logic module that rewards exploration. This 6hp module can perform a variety of functions including clock division, legato generation, trigger to gate conversion, rhythm quantization, sub-octave generation with PWM, and generative trigger sequencing. The module stores a 1 if the input signal is over 1V and a 0 if not, and then outputs accordingly on the next clock pulse. The output can follow the pulse width of the clock or be maintained high until the next clock, which can be CV-controllable. Multiple Gaetos can be chained together to create shift register functions. The module is available in both assembled and DIY kit forms, with black or grey panels.
