Synthétiseur modulaire reprenant des éléments des générations précédentes et ajoutant des modules numériques

YELLOW – Oscillators and sound sources

Input

• Interface to external sound sources – has an envelope tracker and a gate and trigger threshold.

Fenix Oscillator

• Oscillator from the Fenix II – classical analog multi-shape oscillator with three-way phase modulated sub-oscillator. Not that complicated. It makes sound.

Digital Oscillator

• Unusual and usual digital oscillating algorithms. One of the four modes is a FM oscillator – we are considering the other three.

Chord Oscillator

• Triple analog oscillator with digital chord control allowing you to patch chords: major, minor or otherwise.

ORANGE – Envelopes

ADSR 1

• Box standard envelope

ADSR2

• The other box standard envelope

AHDSRD

• Hold my envelope…. Adds one more stage between attack and decay to add more punch to the peak of the envelope. Separate parallel decay stage with curves you can select. The ADSR stages are voltage controllable.

RED – Modulation

Noise & Probabilistic

• Noise generator with adjustable probabilistic distribution. One part generates the classic analog noises: white, pink, brown, red and purple. The noise generator also has a analog sample-and-hold function. The digital part allows you to choose different distributions to base your noise one. Voltage controlled everything.

Wobbler

• Fantastic advanced lfo with five waveshapes – including two physical models. We’ve released this as a separate module for eurorack. More info online.

Triple LFO

• Plucked from the Fenix II. This is the triple-phase-shifted-voltage-controlled-triangle LFO that you know and love.

Regular LFO

• Basic analog LFO from Fenix II with pulse and triangle outputs.

Slewlimit

• Classis analog slewlimiter from the Fenix II. Very useful for building portamento effects or changing modulation signals. Rise and fall are voltage controlled and switchable.

INDIGO – Filters

Ladder Filter

• Variable slope analog transistor ladder filter. It has several outputs for various Db/oct levels.

Multiband Filter

• Voltage controlled triple band filter that can be used to create formant-sounds.

SVF Filter

• Inverted state variable filter with lowpass, highpass and bandpass inputs instead of outputs. This setup allows you to crossfade between sources by swapping their frequencies.

Lowpass gate

• CV controlled low-pass gate. Makes for a smooth VCA & envelope alternative or a deep lowpass filter.

BLUE – Effects

Phaser

• Analog 9 stage phaser effect. Oh yes.

Wavemultiplier

• This module uses four adjustable levels to create new waveforms by very rapid switching between them. Instead of the levels, you can also use two incoming attenuverted signals.

Waveshaper

• Wave-folding soft-saturating distortion module.

Dual delay

• Double digital delayline with various delay-themed algorithms to choose from. Reverb, delay, waveguide and chorus.

Ring modulator

• Classic analog ring modulator. Don’t change a good thing.

VCA1-5

• Classic VCAs.

GREY – Utilities

Mixer 1-3

• Three separate 3-input mixers with AC or DC coupled outputs and offset.

CV mixer 1-4

• A selection of different CV mixers with inverters, attenuverters, offsets and precision summing.

Switch

• CV controllable switch.

Rectifier

• Forces a signal to be bigger than 0 volt.

Gate mix

• Or-gate

Offsets & comparator

• Dial in a level to compare to – trigger something if it is above or below that level.

Multiples

• Connect things to things.

Master output

• 2 channel mixer with panning and VCA. Send things to your master mixing desk over the TRS jacks on the back.

SEQUENCER

Because you need sequences. Ours is an 8-step sequencer with the same step-mixing interface of the Fenix II.  You can connect steps together and use them together as an output, so you can have something happening on step 1 AND 5 on the same output.

SCREEN

Oscilloscope

• Show you audio and CV signals.

USB interface

• USB midi interface with 4 CV/gate outputs.

Time source

• Three clock outputs with individual settings.

Tuner/calibrator

• Built in to tune your oscillators to specific frequencies, and to perform calibration routines to maintain your Fenix during the decades to come.

Settings

• Adjust your MIDI, CV and time settings.
