Two New Xaoc Devices Eurorack Modules

US A stereo variable band Isolator and a syncable analog delay line 06/11/20

Xaoc Devices has announced that they have two new modules available - Katowice and Sarajewo. Here's the details in their own words...

KATOWICE 1978 Stereo Variable Band Isolator
Katowice is a stereo variable–band isolator that allows the user to manipulate a selected range of frequencies. It is the first module in a series of upcoming Xaoc Devices products designed specifically for processing stereo signals. Katowice splits the stereo input signal into three bands: low, middle, and high. While the knobs and CV inputs define the center frequency and bandwidth of the mid band, the low and high bands are automatically adjusted so that the sum of all three is a complete signal. All three bands are passed through high quality VCAs and their stereo outputs are available separately for further processing. A stereo mixdown signal is also available.

Katowice may be used as a crossover network, a parametric EQ, DJ-style kill filter, or other band-selective applications, including multiband compression and stereo enhancement.

- 3-band, 24dB/oct crossover module
- Voltage controlled band configuration
- Three stereo VCA blocks
- Voltage controlled attenuation in each band

- 10hp, skiff friendly
- Current draw: +100mA / –100mA
- Reverse power protection

SARAJEWO 1984 Syncable Analog Delay Line
Sarajewo is an analog delay module based on old school (but newly manufactured) BBD (Bucket Brigade Delay) chips. It features three delay taps, an external clock input with various tempo sync factors, and a wide range of settings controllable via CV. It is based on high quality components with maximum effort put towards the highest sound quality possible, while still preserving the charm of the BBD technology. The module offers a clean and warm analog sound with tons of character and a comfortable user interface with a tap tempo button, signal level indicators, sync and CV inputs, four signal outputs, and an adjustable feedback filter.

- BBD-based analog delay unit
- Up to 1560ms of analog delay times
- Three delay taps with individual outputs
- External clock synchronization
- Manual tap tempo function
- Variable tempo divisions and multiplications
- Automatic bandwidth control
- Tilt filter in feedback loop
- External feedback loop input

- 12hp, skiff friendly
- Current draw: +180mA/-120mA
- Reverse power protection
