Morphun Function Tests
Here is a walk through of the basic functions of the Eardrill “Morphun” Module Module.
“Chris Muir of “Eardrill” makes wonderful Buchla synthesizer format/compatible modules.”
Module info can be found here: http://www.eardrill.com/
The ModuleModule is a normal Buchla-format module that implements a frame that can hold up to four “standard” mini-modules; “ModuleModule modules”, if you will. The ModuleModule frame has a circuit board that has a Buchla power connector, from which it distributes power to the four modules. Anyone who feels so inclined can make mini-modules for the ModuleModule. I think that this might be a pretty good platform for other manufacturers or for DIY efforts. There are a handful of them available currently, with more on the way. I have a long list of modules that I would like to make for this system. Modules can also be double or triple sized. (There’s nothing stopping anyone from making a quad-sized module, but by then it really makes more sense to make a normal module.)

Pittsburgh – A brand new analog delay module
Here’s a new modular from Pittsburgh:
A brand new analog delay module designed around a pair of 4096 Bucket Brigade Delay Line (BBD) ICs to produce a distinct analog delay effect. The maximum delay time when shipped is set at 9/10ths of a second but this can be adjusted up to 2 seconds. The Analog Delay offers voltage control of the delay time, feedback, and wet signal. A true bypass switch allows the delay to be enabled and disabled quickly.

How to build a bass amp combinator
Propellerhead’s product specialist James Bernard follows up our guitar amp combinator video by showing you how you can build a great sounding bass amp combinator in Reason too. By gaining individual control over the bass’ low and high frequencies, James can apply unique compression and EQ to the tone and take the bass sound from a dull thud to a crunchy punchy monster.
