Unleash your sonic creativity with the Schlappi Engineering 100 Grit, a dynamic Eurorack module that fuses the gritty charm of analog with the precision of modern modular synthesis. Designed for adventurous sound designers and musicians, the 100 Grit is not just a filter; it's an entire distortion playground housed in a sleek 14U width panel.

At the core of this module is a robust low-pass filter (24dB/oct.) that offers unmatched control over cutoff and resonance, allowing you to carve out rich, textured sonic landscapes. With two FM inputs—one featuring an attenuator—and two adjustable audio inputs with the option to overdrive, the 100 Grit serves as a versatile tool for crafting everything from smooth, creamy tones to aggressive, distorted waves.

The OTA-based VCA adds another layer of versatility, providing gain control and a CV input with an attenuator for nuanced sound shaping. A standout feature is the distortion output stage with a gain switch (x100), perfect for pushing your sound to the extreme. For those who love tactile interaction, eight brass contacts invite you to connect different parts of the circuit using your fingers, cables, or metal parts, encouraging an interactive approach to sound design.

All inputs are normalized to various circuit sections, allowing for creative feedback and self-modulation. With separate outputs for the VCA and distortion stages, this module is a powerhouse for any Eurorack setup, inviting endless experimentation.
