What do you get when you combine voltage controlled distortion and one of the most infamous bassdrums? Hexinverter took one of the most revered bassdrum synthesis designs of all time – the TR-808 and completely redesigned it for use in a modular analogue synthesizer.

Features

Analogue bassdrum circuitry capable of vanilla TR-808 sounds
Built in voltage controlled distortion (batteryACID distortion)
Distortion accepts external inputs when not being used with kick drum (great for acid synth leads)
Voltage control of distortion amount
Voltage control of decay from short kicks to long "ooooooooomphs"
Voltage control of pitch (approximates v/oct response, but not musically tuned)
Non-invasive analogue optocouplers used for voltage control, thus, completely vintage sounds can still be had if that's what you're after!
Completely redesigned, hi-fi signal chain spares no expense by replacing cheap transistor amplifiers with low noise opamp equivalents

Redesigned by Erica Synths in close collaboration with Hexinverter.

In September 2022 Stacy Gaudreau - the founder of Hexinverter Électronique, announced closing down the operations. Following their announcement, Erica Synths in cooperation with Hexinverter Électronique saw a way for their incredible and truly unique music instruments to keep on inspiring musicians and finding a home in countless studios to come. We strongly believe the effort and innovation incorporated in Hexinverter Électronique eurorack modules are far too great to prematurely become history. Erica Synths will take over the manufacturing, sales, and support of several Hexinverter Électronique modules. While retaining all functionality of Hexinverter Électronique modules, Erica Synths redesigned the hardware of modules and will provide support for reissue modules only.

SSL E Dyn

Loving the SSL E Dyn. Apparently this was on every channel during sessions with the console. I can see why. Great way to get a clean punchy signal into your DAW. Love the extender circuit as well, it does a great job of keeping any unwanted background noise out of your recording.
