Description
We started this module with the idea of developing a complex drum source. However, somewhere along the process we noticed how much better it performed as a synth voice and simply embraced this lucky accident.
It features a VCO with a [FREQUENCY] and [FINE TUNE] knob plus a dedicated CV Input and Attenuator knob (tunable over 4 octaves).
The VCO waveform output is achieved by selecting either a Triangle or Saw through a switch. The selected waveform can then be mixed/balanced against the square wave. The resulting mix is then sent to the Filter.
The Filter features a [CUTOFF] and [RESO] resonance knob plus a Cutoff CV Input and Attenuverter knob.
A 3 position switch is used to select the filter type: Highpass, Bandpass or Lowpass.
The resulting output is then sent to the VCA.
The VCA features an Input with [INPUT GAIN] knob which at maximum can amplify the incoming signal by a factor of 2.
This is a very important control, it accepts any signal Trigger, Gate or CV. Whatever input is plugged in the signal is then fed through an AD with a very short attack and controllable decay through the [VCA DECAY] knob plus the CV Input and Attenuverter knob. The resulting slewed signal is then used to control the VCA gain.
This signal is also sent to the CV OUTPUT as well as the LED monitor.
The Accent input adds to the Input signal creating a different amplitude output
The CV OUTPUT is normalled to the Frequency and Cutoff inputs.
This module is also available as a full DIY kit.

Custom Panel
In case you're wondering: Sure! We can get you a custom coloured front panel for the ADDAC107.
It has an additional cost and takes 4 to 6 weeks to be ready.
It can be done in either Red, Green, Blue, White, Silver Gray, Yellow, or Gold.
Please note: we don’t stock custom coloured panels. For every custom order we need to make a single panel order from our panel provider. This explains the panel price and lead time.

DIY Kit for Eurorack Module
Please read this safety guide before installation or use.
Important Notice & Intended Use
• This kit is intended for adult users experienced in electronics and modular synthesis.
• Assembly, including soldering, is required.
• Proper testing and installation are essential to ensure safe and functional operation.
• The completed module is intended for installation in a Eurorack-compatible synthesizer system powered by ±12V and +5V.
• Use outside this scope may result in malfunction, damage, or safety risks.
General Warnings
Electrical Hazards:
• Ensure the power supply matches the module’s specified voltage and current ratings (refer to the product manual). Incorrect voltage can damage the module and pose a safety risk.
• Never connect or disconnect the module while the Eurorack system is powered on.
• Wrong polarity can damage your module or system. Make sure the module is connected with correct polarity.
Heat Generation:
• The module may generate heat during operation. Ensure proper ventilation within your Eurorack case to prevent overheating.
Sharp Edges:
• The module’s faceplate and components may have sharp edges. Handle with care to avoid cuts or scratches.

• Contains small parts that could cause a choking hazard. Keep away from children and pets.
Compatibility:
• This module is designed specifically for Eurorack-compatible systems. Connecting it to non-compatible systems may result in damage or malfunction.
Assembly Requirements
• Soldering skills are required to complete the module.
• Ensure a clean, well-lit and ventilated workspace free of flammable materials during assembly.
• Use appropriate tools and safety equipment, such as eye protection.
Testing
• Test the module thoroughly for shorts or incorrect assembly before powering it in your Eurorack system. When the unit has malfunctions due to incorrect assembly, the entire Eurorack system might be damaged. It's a good idea to test it in a separate case with only that single module.
