Some Tests and Experiments with my Eurorack Modular Synth

Giro in bici per la Valle Isarco in Alto Adige, ispirato da una natura apparentemente incontaminata ma con in lontananza le auto di una valle molto trafficata.

This is a distortion module that you can build for your analogue synthesizer. It is intended to be used for distorting acid basslines or otherwise waveshaping your synthesizer textures. It is based on the infamous MXR Distortion Plus and sounds pretty rad for such minimal components.

It sounds excellent on a TB-303 or x0xb0x (as you can hear here, playing the famous bassline from New Order - "Confusion" Pump Panel acid remix. It is also useful for anything else coming from your synth. Some really cool timbres can be found in this easy to build little circuit!

PCBs will be available at hexinverter.net as well as panels from Re:Synthesis for the popular eurorack modular format.
