We’re back with another installment on Acid Rain Technology’s lineup. This post is all about Navigator, a playable interface for signal mixing, attenuversion, and offset generation. Navigator provides detailed control over any CV source or input in your system, and it will work just as well with audio. The module consists of two circuits that are normalled together intelligently: a unipolar (0-5v) fader-based attenuator, and a bipolar (-5-5v) knob-based attenuverter. The inputs for both are normalled to +5v, meaning the outputs become offsets when nothing is patched in to their inputs for attenuation. The fader passes through to the attenuverter...

Make Noise has released the manual for their new module Mimeophon here. Lots of interesting details are making Mimeophon an even more exciting proposition than it originally appeared to be, for instance, one can achieve delays from between 2ms to 41 seconds(!) long. The μ input, or microRate input, allows doppler style pitch effects even while externally clocking Mimeophon. You can pre-order Mimeophon from us here.  Make Noise have also included some very nice tips for getting the most of this module, for example: "Zones 6 and 7 are very long, to the extent that all manipulations of the Mimeophon in...

Teaming up with Dave Small of Catalyst Audio and Buchla artist consultant Todd Barton, Buchla has a officially entered the world of Eurorack with the introduction of Buchla subsidiary, Red Panel. Named after the legendary LSD-dipped red panel from Buchla's early history at San Francisco Tape Music Center, Red Panel expands upon Dave Small's Catalyst Audio module releases based on modules from the Buchla 100 Series, with the intention of making the legacy of Don Buchla and his synthesizer designs more affordable and accessible than they ever were in their original format. Several Red Panel modules were shown at NAMM...
