Unleash your creativity with the Mutable Instruments Ripples (2020), a compact yet formidable analog multimode filter that effortlessly marries classic sound with modern versatility. Designed for the discerning modular synth enthusiast, Ripples offers a rich palette of sonic possibilities in a sleek 8HP module. With its intuitive interface, you'll have access to three distinct output taps: 2-pole bandpass, 2-pole lowpass, and 4-pole lowpass, along with a unique combination of 4-pole low-pass plus VCA. This provides you with an impressive range of tonal shaping options, from smooth and subtle to resonant and self-oscillating.

What truly sets Ripples apart is its ability to maintain a consistent loudness even as you push the resonance to self-oscillation. This makes it a perfect choice for serving as the 'final stage' in a subtractive synth voice, adding depth and character to your soundscapes. The module also offers voltage control over cutoff frequency, resonance, and frequency modulation, giving you the power to sculpt your sounds with precision.

Whether you’re crafting lush pads, punchy basslines, or otherworldly textures, the Mutable Instruments Ripples (2020) is a must-have addition to your modular setup, promising to elevate your sonic journey.
