Modular Dynamic Duo

Erica Synths has announced two new compressors for modular systems. First, the company extends its collaboration with Moritz Klein with a new EDU DIY Compressor, and second, the company announces an all new Stereo Compressor Eurorack module, perfect for optimizing and shaping percussive sounds. Here's the details direct from Erica Synths...

EDU DIY COMPRESSOR

Need some professional polish in your modular system? With this simple diode-based compressor, you can shape the dynamics of your sound, adding punch and consistency to your patches. Whether you're looking to beef up your basslines, add sustain to your leads, or tame the peaks of your percussion, this circuit's got you covered.
 

We – Erica Synths and Moritz Klein – have developed a series of educational DIY kits under the brand name mki x es.EDU with one specific goal in mind: to teach people with little-to-no prior experience how to design analog synthesizer circuits from scratch. What you'll find in the box is not simply meant to be soldered together and then disappear in your rack. Instead, we want to take you through the circuit design process step by step, explaining every choice we've made and how it impacts the finished module.

NB! All kits in these series are simple and come with extensive user manuals which can be downloaded separately, therefore we will not provide customer support in case your DIY build fails to function or similar.

STEREO COMPRESSOR

Everything sounds better with compression! Whether you need a bit of extra pressure for your drum sounds or just that extra touch to make your modular mix more nimble and tight, the Erica Synths Stereo Compressor will make your live performances a joy. The module is optimized for percussion sounds and will be a great addition to any Erica Synths Drum module rig. The Stereo sidechain can be used to animate melodic layers on the beat and to truly bring your Basslines to life.
