The Machineroom Trilobite Eurorack Module is a full-analog triple saw-core oscillator with a white noise source. Inspired by the original Moog schematics and made with through-hole components only, this module features 3 waveforms, 4 octave ranges, an UNISON (FINE) control, independent LIN FM and PWM inputs, and independent audio outputs for each oscillator. The Trilobite can also function as an LFO with a minimum frequency of 3Hz and tracks up to 9 octaves. It is recommended to use independent audio outputs to avoid distortion and the module should be allowed 5-7 minutes to warm up before use. Overall, this skiff-friendly module is a versatile tool for both beginner and advanced synth enthusiasts.
