BugBrand designs not only look iconic with their bold blue/red/yellow/green combination, they also sound fantastic. Tom Bugs has been designing tabletop synths and electronic kits for many years, and has two new modules on offer:
The Phaser module is built around 12 all-pass filter stages (using 2164 VCAs for low-noise), thus making a 6-pole phaser for thick sounds! There is actually a jumper on the rear to allow 4 or 5 pole operation, but why would you want a tamer sound?!
The design offers:
The 2130 VCO is built around the powerful new SSI2130 chip – a feature-rich oscillator core in a tiny package with on-board features like great tuning & temperature stability, Linear FM that can be easily made to go Through-Zero, and a waveform mixer that can be used to morph through wave outputs.
This was designed to be a relatively simple & spacious implementation of the chip – it has a reasonable number of bells & whistles but doesn't try to cram everything in!
Both are available now and are each priced at £190.00 (Incl. VAT £228.00). More info on the BugBrand website.
