Unleashing the Sonic Power of RIPLEY: A Deep Dive into the Mutable Instruments Ripples V2 Replica
RIPLEY is a full-size replica of Mutable Instruments Ripples V2 filter featuring a matte black aluminum panel and a 2-year warranty. It is a classic, big-sounding analog four-pole filter in a small 8-HP package, offering a no-fuss, elegant choice for sound processing. With two input paths, including a drive control for signal distortion, three filter modes (high-pass, band-pass, and low-pass), switchable slopes, and self-oscillation capabilities, RIPLEY provides versatile sound manipulation options. The resonance compensation circuit adds a unique tone coloration, making it reminiscent of classic 80s Japanese filters. With internal VCA for the low-pass output and various CV inputs for modulation control, RIPLEY serves as a versatile and powerful multimode filter suitable for diverse synthesis setups.

The SoundForce uVCF 6 is an upcoming 6HP Eurorack module that provides a voltage-controlled low pass filter selection between 4 poles (24db/octave) or 2 poles (12db/octave), with FM CV input, VOCT input, and Q CV input. The filter is a Eurorack interpretation of the Juno 60/106 VCF section, built using modern and widely available parts, as the original custom ICs are now obsolete and unavailable. The module also features loudness drop compensation (LDC) to avoid signal loss with high levels of resonance. Despite the differences in sound between the Juno 60 and 106 synthesizers, the topology of their VCFs is exactly the same, and the uVCF 6 aims to bring that character into the Eurorack format.
