Description

42HP. This was my first module. I love this module. It's so versatile. Many times when I just need this one specific function for a specific idea to work in my set up, it offers itself up as a solution, or part of the solution. Seriously amazing building block and do it all. I never used any of the cards, but they are extremely cool, you can create pre-programmed functions on them so that you don't even have to patch. Erica Synths Pico System IIIThis is Erica's most affordable and flexible Pico series modular synth yet: the Pico System III, a West Coast-inspired instrument that draws clear inspiration from the Buchla Music Easel. With a classic pairing of rich modulation sources, complex oscillator, lowpass gates, and preset memory via DIY "program cards," the Pico System III Eurorack module brings a taste of classic Buchla to Eurorack systems at a remarkable price. But of course, it has a uniquely Erica spin—bringing a touch of grunge and grit to this classic workflow.The basic signal flow begins with two oscillators with a dedicated VCO Controller, allowing for linear and exponential FM and multiple forms of waveshaping (including PWM). Two resonant lowpass gates provide a rubbery, plucky, organic dynamic response, and a voltage-controllable BBD effect provides flanging, chorus, and short delay effects (with delay times up to 400ms).The other half of the instrument's character is defined by its modulation options. A multi-purpose modulator module offers sine and pulse LFOs, as well as random pulses, random S&H, and noise. Two voltage-controllable AD envelopes (with optional looping) provide the potential to create everything from plucky articulations to long, evolving voltage contours. And of course, several mixers provide the option for combining CV or audio signals.Using the included factory preset cards and a host of DIY cards, users can explore the possibility of modular preset memory—storing all patch routing on individual cards. Experiment with using resistors to attenuate signals between modules, or simply stick with the factory cards for a fun and immediate experience.Bringing many of the concepts of classic West Coast synths to Eurorack format with a decidedly "Erica" twist, the Pico System III module is one of the most interesting full voice modules currently available.Pico System III FeaturesFull West Coast modular synth voice in only 42hpPreset card patch memory functionality a la Buchla Music EaselFour-step sequencerTwo VCOs with linear and exponential FM and various waveshaping tricksDedicated modulation oscillator with Noise, S&H, and Random Pulse generationTwo looping voltage-controllable envelope generatorsTwo Lowpass gates with variable resonanceBuilt-in BBD delay with up to 400ms delay timeThree built-in mixers for modulation, audio mixing, and output level managementIncludes Five factory preset voice cards and five DIY voice cardsIncludes one Hosa stackable patch cableIncludes User Manual with several pages for patch notes
