Two New Erica Synths Eurorack Modules

US Stereo FX and the Stereo DJ VCF 02/01/24

Erica Synths believe that the Stereo FX module and the Stereo DJ VCF, their two new stereo modules in the Drum Series will seriously elevate your drums by adding a dynamic sound treatment.

A spokesperson told us, "Explore a collection of custom hi-fi delay and reverb effects with the Stereo FX module, driven by our new DSP engine or, sculpt your sounds with the Stereo DJ VCF, delivering the distinctive filtering style commonly found on DJ decks."

Here's the details in the company's own words...

The STEREO FX module brings hi-fi stereo effects into the Erica Synths Drum Series. Based on our new DSP engine, the module provides a wide range of custom delay and reverb effects. CV control over various parameters and the ability to save up to 10 presets will make this module an integral part of any performance rack.

Features

Hi-Fi stereo FX module

3 delay and 3 reverb effects

Tap and clock synchronization of delay time

Delay time divisions and multiplications in sync mode

10 preset patches

CV control over delay time, feedback, and preset selection

The FX is developed in collaboration with the Dutch company 112dB which offers some of the best-sounding VST instruments.

As its name suggests, the Erica Synths DJ VCF STEREO module provides sound treatment functionality typically found on DJ decks – it is fully open when the cutoff knob is at 12:00. When turned counter-clockwise, lowpass filtering is applied and when turned clockwise, highpass filtering is initiated. Additionally, there is a nice-sounding, adjustable resonance parameter. This provides hands-on control over the sound during performances as well as unconventional timbre modulations that are hard to achieve with conventional state variable filters.

Features

Fully analogue stereo DJ-style VCF

Manual cutoff and resonance control

Two cutoff CV inputs, one with an attenuverter
