Plankton Spice

Modular saturation unit

• Rackable (38HP eurorack) modular desktop unit.
• 8 CV inputs with led level indicators.
• 6 main functions: Prefilter / Digital / Analog / Mixer / Envelope Follower / Feedback
• Prefilter: High Pass and Low Pass filters to shape the sound before being processed. Both controllable via fader + CV input.
• Digital: 12 bit Bit Crusher / Bit mute, Biswap and Bit inversion + Sample Rate reducer. Both controllable via potentiometer and CV inputs. It also offer an analog input control with led clip indicator and a low pass filter to smooth the output signal. All the code will be Open Source
• Analog: 7 analog distortion circuits selectable with a rotary encoder + a sweet resonant state variable filter. Drive and Cutoff parameters are controllable via potentiometer and CV inputs. 2 of the circuits use the new Korg NU-TUBE.
• Mixer: Dry and Wet controls to mixed the processed signal with the clean one of the input. Both controllable via fader + CV input.
• Envelope Follower: A dedicated envelope follower with gain control and normal and inverted outputs to convert an incoming signal to an envelope. With its output you can control any of the CV parameters and shape the processed sound in many creative ways.
• Feedback: a triple feedback section that sends the Wet input to the Prefilter, Digital and Analog sections. It's capable from a subtle resonance to a collapsed hardcore self generating tone.
• Semi-modular architecture with prepatched sections that can be restructured using patch cables. Each section (minus the feedback) can be used as an independent function from the rest.
