ALM / Busy Circuits - Quaid Megaslope - Waveform Magazine

waveformmagazine.com

The ALM Quaid Megaslope is an inventive five-stage function generator that excels in flexibility and fun, allowing musicians to craft glitchy, unpredictable rhythms with ease. Users will appreciate its intuitive controls and the ability to create bespoke LFOs, making it a dynamic addition to any setup. However, the module lacks CV control for step sustain, which would enhance its versatility further. Overall, while it may not satisfy those seeking extensive sequencing options, its unique approach and hands-on manipulation capabilities make it a worthy investment for adventurous sound designers.
