ADVA 3U: The Versatile Beast of Analog Multimode Filters
ADVA 3U is a versatile analog multimode filter that includes a VCA, white noise generator, pre and post-distortions, and a smart interface. With 7 filter modes, it provides a wide variety of tones from gentle filtering to hot acid tones. It never inverts the input's phase and offers self-oscillation for all modes. ADVA can be used as an oscillator or sound generator, and features a resonance loudness compensation circuit. The internal white noise generator adds richness to the sound, and two separate distortion circuits provide soft-clipping overdrive and aggressive post-distortion. The smart routing system allows for CV modulation of filter modes, and the interface includes intuitive click knobs and an RGB LED ring for visual feedback.

read moreExploring the Twisted Brother of Compressors: Introducing the Cosmotronic Peradam Eurorack Module
The Cosmotronic Peradam is a unique analog distortion module with an internal sidechain that creates complex self-distortion sounds in the main signal. The side-chain is modulated by itself to create a signal at twice the frequency of the original and then modulates the amplitude of the VCA. The module also has a dual-band drive circuit before entering a soft clipper output stage. It allows for a broad palette of distortions, from subtle saturation to massive clipping and complete destruction. The module comes with a +6dB gain switch on the input and a blend slider to dial in your tones. The Cosmotronic Peradam is available for pre-order at an MSRP of €270 and is estimated to ship in January 2022.
