Some of the hardest bass I’ve heard.

Been flirting with this for more than a little while. The expense of getting into EuroRack, the black hole it can become after you have...this little beast was just too much to resist and I got on board over the last few months...

1st a case. That kinda sucked cuz it was just that, a case...for months.

Then I scraped together the cash & the gods of Cyber Monday/Black Friday shined on me. I went after a load of long coveted pieces. This remains one of the most seductive bass tones I’ve heard.

Not just a clone of the SH101, it goes further with audio rate LFO, outs to outs, etc.

There’s plenty available out there on the specifics but I know that while I use and abuse this sucker it’s the bass that I can’t get enough of so that’s what I’ll talk about here.

It’s a short conversation-

Rubbery, hard as f**k, and add a little chorus? Favorite bass tone I’ve got. Or at the very least a very close tie. Hits like a weapon- the added bass boost when using higher resonance, the drive, 2 or 4 pole filter to get as nasty or as creamy as you want- I dunno who could ask for more. If you only go this far into modular? This one piece makes it worth it.

Sh101 clone Sort of.....

Really amazing sound... 2 oscillators built in envelopes.... This thing sounds like a Sh101 on steroids. A great way to get into eurorac modular synths. Pairs really well with The Intellijel Metropolis sequencer.

"I’ve had fantasies about doing really simple things, and I think if I moved to a different room, I would just start from scratch and just do something really stripped down. Like with the Intellijel Metropolis and the Atlantis, putting those into a case and just going somewhere with headphones and just really getting lost in the gear."
