Explore the possibilities of multi-oscillator configurations with the WMD-Legion, Quantus Trajecta, XPO, and PPEXP1 modules. The WMD-Legion is a precision thru-zero oscillator that offers a wide range of waveforms, including a unique saw wave section with "windows" that add overtone complexity. It also features a sub-oscillator that fully reacts to thru-zero frequency modulation. The Quantus Trajecta is a quad envelope designed for polyphony, with universal controls that adjust all four envelopes simultaneously. The XPO is a stereo prismatic oscillator that generates various waveforms and offers features like pulse width modulation and wavefolding. Finally, the PPEXP1 is an expander module for Pamela’s PRO Workout that provides additional clock outputs and MIDI options. Combine these modules to unlock a world of sonic possibilities.

WMD Legion is an eight-HP oscillator that comes with an SSI2130 TZFM oscillator chip and a host of useful CV inputs. It features individual waveform outputs, a separate exponential FM input with correlating attenuator, octave switches, and a unique saw wave section inspired by the oscillator in the Alpha Juno synthesizer. The oscialltor features digital calibration, and once one tunes, one will stay in tune. The tune knob can be switched between fine and coarse modes and can be locked out to protect against unintentional movement during a performance. It has a sub-oscillator with switchable octave and Saw, Triangle, Square, and PW waveforms, a first in Eurorack in that it also fully reacts to Thru-Zero FM. The module uses very little power and stays cool and consistent in temperature, meaning it is stable for tuning. However, the downside is that these power supply parts and special opamps are entirely unavailable due to the worldwide semiconductor shortage, and only 600 Legions are available since no other runs are planned.

The Instruo Saïch is a powerful quad oscillator designed for eurorack systems. With its super-saw functionality and smart VCA mixing, it offers creative and interesting ways to manipulate and combine four fully analogue sawtooth waveforms. It is a perfect companion for the harmonàig quantiser, allowing for the creation of harmonically structured chord voicings. Even without a quad quantiser, the Saïch includes diatonic modes for easy creation of Ionian and Aeolian chord scales. With features such as detuning, intervallic offsets, sub oscillator modes, and FM options, the Instruo Saïch is a versatile module for unleashing sonic power in your eurorack setup.
