LSPXPO 2026: New ALM Busy Circuits FMCO and QUAID Gigaslope

We spoke with Rupert from ALM Busy Circuits, who presented their latest developments, the FMCO and the multi-mode modulator. QUAID Gigaslope The  FMCO, is a compact FM synth voice that features two operators and offers both manual and voltage control. Inspired by Akamie's Castle and Taiko, it utilizes DSP for a distinct sound. The module provides stereo output, a built-in VCA, and envelope controls that impact FM depth, facilitating diverse sound creations from percussive elements to bass lines.

Additionally, Rupert took us through the QUAID Gigaslope, which extends the capabilities of their QUAID Megaslope. This module operates as an envelope, LFO, and sequencer across its four channels and offers up to 13 stages. It supports expansive sequencing with features like quantization and assignable CV inputs. Both products emphasize performative possibilities and modular integration, now available at designated retailers.

FMCo is £239

QUAID Gigaslope £699
