Tangible Waves

Notes: The CVADDER-HQ is a precision adder especially for adding 1V/octave (pitch-controlling) CVs. This makes it possible e.g. to transpose a sequence. Compared to general purpose CV mixers (like POLAMIX), this module does the summing of the CVs very precise (within a few millivolts), so the desired pitch is not affected.

The module offers four CV inputs where three of them are summed, and the CV at the fourth input is subtracted - meaning "transposition downwards".

This module also allows transposing the incoming CV by one or two octaves or a variable offset by buttons.

A separate output provides the voltage of the internal transposition (+1, +2 octaves / free).

If the transposition buttons are not necessary and you prefer to have a dual precision adder, take a look at the 2CVADD-HQ module.

Notes: This module offers a four-quadrant-control for CVs via its joystick.

The module can act either as CV source at its four outputs, or as four-quadrant attenuator for the CV inputs. Beyond this, a mix of the input CVs according to the joystick position is provided separately.

Another feature is a gate output that is controlled by pressing the joystick handle.

The joystick remains in each position - there is no automatic "return to centre".

The JOYSTICK module can operate in two different modes:

Quadrants independent: In this mode, all outputs are zero when the joystick is in centre position
Overlapped: In this mode, each quadrant output fades from full to zero over the whole range to the opposite corner.

Together with a quad VCA / mixer (available soon from tangible waves) you can use the JOYSTICK also for mixing/blending four independent audio sources.

Notes: Channel extender for MIXCONSOLE.

This module extends the MIXCONSOLE module with three additional channels; the channel level can be controlled via CV here, too. If no CV is attached, the level knob works as usual volume control.

Notes: This is a variant of the standard red/black racks for AE modular with wooden front and sides.

Same as with the standard cases, via a joint kit (not included) another case of this width (either one-row or two-row, standard or wooden type) can be attached at a free angle; the bus is connected via a short connector cable between both cases.

The sides, front and back are made of real-wood veneer covered MDF.

Please note: This rack does not include the Master or Power module. To connect the case to power you have the following options:

Connect the case to your system via the Hinge Kit 1 or 2 (only for cases newer than 2019)
Connect the case to your system via the Racklink Module (works for all cases)
Install the Master Module
Install the Power Module

Whichever option you decide on, you will also need to order and install 2x Bus Cables, but be careful to order the correct size! Standard Bus Cable for Standard Case size, etc.

Notes: The 2OSC R2 is a dual 1V/octave oscillator module. Another successor of a classic AE module, the 2OSC/d. The 2OSC is a dual oscillator module, digitally based, with a great feature set:

Oscillator 1:

- Sawtooth
- Multi-Sawtooth, detuned
- Pulse Wave
- Triangle waveform with wavefolder
- Sinewave
- Suboscillator output
- Mix output (primary wave plus suboscillator)


Oscillator 2 , Noise:

This oscillator is focused on square waves; additionally to a pulse width controlled and CV-controllable square wave, it offers also a "synced square wave" (sounds really nasty!) and synced to oscillator 1. A separate suboscillator out is here available too. Additionally, a separate noise output is included, whose sound depends of the frequency setting of oscilaltor 2. The octave range switches are the same like in 2OSC/d. On top of the usual 1V/octave pitch control, the module can be controlled also via IMDI, the internal, patchable MIDI! Oscillators 1 and 2 are separate via different MIDI channels.

Notes: A set of 6 Patchwires for AE modular; with a length of 80 cm.

Cable has a soft, flexible silicone insulation, with a gold plated pin.

Notes: DRUMKIT 010 consists of 11 8-bit drum sound samples; 6 of them can be triggered in parallel in any combination by the trigger inputs. With a BANK selector knob, different combinations of the 11 samples can be selected. The PITCH knob affects the pitch of all instruments together, and with the REVERSE button the sounds are played backwards - quite a nice effect to be added here and there.

By design, this is a nasty, lo-fi drum sound source, but definitely with its own character. It works great together with the analogue KICK module.

Notes: The FADRMIX JACKOUT is an extension for the FADRMIX6 with two 1/4" (6.5mm) jack sockets for master left/right output and 4 stereo minijack sockets for the FX send and returns.

The module is connected via a small internal connection cable to the right of the FADRMIX6.

Notes: The FADRMIX6 module is a performance mixer for your AE system; if offers the following features:

6 mono input channels with two sockets per channel; these two inputs are mixed at equal level, so FADRMIX6 is in fact a 12-chnnel mixer (somehow)!

Click-free mute buttons per channels

Per channel: fader for level, knobs for pan and two FX-send channels

2 FX send-return sections (send mono, return stereo) to connect FX modules

FX sends can be individually configured as pre-fader / post-fader (switches on the back of the module)

FX returns can be switched mono/stereo

Master level faders; stereo minijack socket master out

Stereo headphone output as stereo minijack socket with separate level control.

An internal connector allows the extension of input channels and output / FX sends as jack sockets by the FADRMIX JACKOUT module

Module size: 6 units

Notes: The FILTERBANK914 is designed after the famous Moog 914 Fixed Filterbank. It includes 12 bandpass filters with fixed center frequencies and additionally a lowpass- and a highpass filter. Control knobs for all the frequency bands allow individual mixing of the bands. This is especially useful for shaping the sound spectrum similar to acoustic instruments - they get their character by certain frequency peaks, so called "formants".

This module is different to (and not a good choice as) a multiband equalizer. The equalizer can increase/decrease certain bands in the range of e.g. -12...+12dB, with the signal unchanged with all controls in center position. In contrast, the FILTERBANK914 controls are attenuators over the full level, meaning the individual band is completely muted when the knob is turned completely counter-clockwise.

As a special feature, the module has separate outputs for "even" and "odd" bands, meaning that one output only contains the sum of half the bandpasses, the other one the remaining ones. This leads to some type of "pseudo stereo".

Notes: FM synthesis for the AE!

The FMOS is a new digital oscillator that brings FM synthesis to the AE modular! It offers the basic FM synthesis with one oscillator and one modulator, running both with sine waves or triangle waves. The modulation depth and frequency ratio of the modulator can be set with a knob and additionally by CV control. If you want pure sine waves, this is for you too - simply set the modulation level to 0.

The module is based on a simple 8-bit microcontroller and an adapted design of Jan Ostman.

Notes: FMOS R2 is a FM oscillator, and the successor of the discontinued FMOS module with a lot of new features!

FMOS R2 is basically a 2-operator FM synthesis sound generator, with the classic parameters MULTIPLIER for the modulating operator and MOD DEPTH for controlling the amount of FMing of the carrier operator.

Beyond this basic functionality, FMOS R2 offers following extra features:

- Additionally to the basic sinewave operator waveform, FMOS R2 has five additional waveform combinations for the carrier/modulator waveform, resulting in a more rich overtone spectrum

- The FEEDBACK control adds feedback the carrier/modulator chain, adding more variety to the sound spectrum

- The modulator can optionally be set to fixed frequency, especially useful for synthesizing metallic, inharmonic sounds

- A sub-oscillator output provides a square wave one octave lower

- The MIX output provides a mix between the FM sound and the sub-oscillator.

- Pitch is either controlled by a 1V/octave CV or IMDI, the "modular MIDI" introduced by tangible waves

- Modulation depth can be modulated by CV

- All parameters can also be controlled via IMDI, with a number of MIDI controllers.

All this with a nice portion of 8-bit charm!

Notes: The HEARTBEAT EXTENDER expands the functionality of the HEARTBEAT module. It is connected to the HEARTBEAT module with a small ribbon cable (included) and offers following features:

Six preset buttons to store and recall different tempos with one button press

MIDI in and out sockets with LED indicators: The HEARTBEAT module can follow incoming MIDI timing data (MIDI start/stop/clock) as an additional option; and the current tempo of the HEARTBEAT is sent out as MIDI timing data if it acts as master clock in a complete system - other MIDI devices will follow it's tempo.

A knob that controls either the swing amount or the transition time when changing from one preset to another (known as accelerando/ritardando).

A lock switch, that disable the save button and other functions that could be an issue e.g. in live situations.

Notes: The IMDI HEART module is the central module for using IMDI (the "internal MIDI" transmision) within AE modular.

It receives MIDI, either by a TRS adapter, or via USB-C (the module appears as Class-compliant MIDI device on a computer); the incoming data is splitted up to 16 outputs carrying IMDI data. Each output contains the information of one (or more) MIDI channel(s) and a freely assignable note range, in the standard MIDI data rate or at a much higher data rate. Realtime data, like MIDI start/stop/clock is provided as gate/trigger outputs; the 1/96th clock can be divided to other, slower clock rates.

The outputs can drive then modules that can receive IMDI, like the micro oscillators (uOSC, uFM, uPOLY) and other upcoming IMDI capable modules.

The 16 chains of IMDI controlled modules you get with IMDI HEART is enough for quite complex setups, so in most cases, one IMDI HEART will be enough.

Notes: The MASTER module is the base of an AE modular system if MIDI control has to be possible; it contains

- The voltage regulation (5V) for the power supply of the modules

- A MIDI input (minijack; Breakout cable to DIN-5 socket is available separately); the MIDI channel can be selected between 1, 14, 15,16 or OMNI

- In/out-sockets (3.5mm minijack) for audio out and/or interfacing with a Eurorack system

- All bus signals (CV, GATE, CTRL, MIDI clock/start/stop) as patch sockets

- IMDI output

Notes: The PAN/XFADE module is a combined routing processor for creating panning and crossfades. The PAN/XFADE works either as a signal panner, meaning one input signal is moved continuously between the left and right output, or, in crossfade mode, where it blends between two input signals into one output. Of course controllable by CV; and working for audio signals as well as DC control voltages.

Notes: The 1-row QUICKSWAP CASE for AE modular is the high-end case for AE modular. It is based on a sturdy metal chassis with a beautiful matte black powder coating and - the key feature of this case - allows to plug in AE modules without any screws! The design makes sure that the modules sit really firm in the case and the bus connection is established automatically by the integrated bus board, so need for the separate bus cable known from the standard AE cases. This means, rearranging your modular system can't be easier!

This case is developed by Kyaa, a great 3rd party AE module developer; tangible waves is producing the case. We are happy about this great cooperation and this marvellous addition to our product range!

With a connector kit, another QUICKSWAP CASE of same width can be attached at certain angles, depending on the connector - and the power supply is linked between the cases also via the connector.

Other utilities, like a handle for carrying a folded case, are coming soon.

Please note: This rack does not include the Master or Power module.
To connect the case to power you have the following options:
install the Master Module
install the Power Module
connect to another, already powered QUICKSWAP CASE
connect to another AE case via the RACKLINK module kit

Notes: With this Adapter, gate/trigger signals from AE modular (or other synths) can be converted to the so-called S-Trigger. S-Triggers are used in Moog synths and Clones, e.g. in the 911 envelope generator, and Korg synths, like MS-10, MS-20 and others.

So if you want to control a synth with an S-Trig input, this is the tool for you!

The S_TRIG adapter has a 3,5 minijack plug for the source gate signal (AE modular or others) and a 3,5 minijack socket to connect to the S-Trig input to the other synth.

Notes: The SEQ8 R2 s an 8-step sequencer for controlling oscillator pitch and triggering envelopes.

Compared to "classic" analog sequencers it works a bit different: Instead of setting the CV for each step independently (which means in fact "tuning" each step which can be a bit tedious), the SEQ8 has 4 knobs for presetting different CV's (= notes); each of the 8 step knobs selects one of these CVs, plus 0V (=base note) plus Pause (no trigger output). So some CVs have to be fine-tuned once; with the step knobs you can focus entirely on the sequence itself and you can even modify it on the fly, still remaining in tune.

The IMDI input allows timing and start/stop control via IMDI, e.g. from teh IMDI HEART module or from the MASTER R6 and newer. The module can be configured to different time signatures, scaling the notes (minor, major, pentatonic, chromatic) and adding an octave offset. The IMDI out provides the notes as IMDI, parallel to the CV/GATE output.

Additionally to the selected CV presets, the "raw" value of the step knobs is also accessible at an extra output.

Notes: The TBD module is a multifunctional DSP (digital signal processing) module that includes more than 30 different synthesis and audio processing plugins. It is a collaboration project between CTAG Kiel (an academic working group of Kiel University of Applied Sciences), instrumentsofthings.com (who produce this module for Eurorack) and tangiblewaves.

The module looks quite simplistic with it's only three knobs and three buttons, but the power lies in the web based user interface for editing and storing the parameters. For editing, the module is connected via USB to your computer and a small software tool running here is the bridge to the editing of the parameters via your web browser. IMPORTANT TO KNOW: When the editing is done, the module runs autonomously, without a computer!

Up to 10 favourites can be stored on the module and be chosen by the CONFIG button.

Dynamic control of the modules' parameters works via the two CV inputs and two trigger inputs (which are linked to two buttons), and two knobs are also available for live tweaking parameters. The assignment of inputs/knobs to actual parameters is done in the web based user interface.

Please note that the TBD module has mono audio input and output (compared to the Eurorack version which is stereo); plugins that do stereo audio work also in the AE TBD, but only on one channel. ("Why only mono?" you might ask; the limitation to mono is due to licensing agreements to keep the module price in the usual AE range.

The contained plugins are:

Talkbox (Vocoder), MSxxNoise (MS20 filter and Stone Phaser), Antique (Old Record / Tape Effect), Subotnik (Huge Modulations), VctrSyn, SpaceFX, Formantor, Bjorklund, Karpuskl, APCpp, Retroactor, Rompler (sample playback), WTOsc (custom wavetable), Claude (ported MI granular audio processor), BBeats, CStrip, CStripM, EveryTrim, MISVF, TBD03, PolyPad, TBDings (ported MI resonator), TBDaits (Ported MI Macro Oscillator), TBDeeps (ported MI Wavetable Oscillator), DustLoop, Dust, SubSynth, Sine Source, Simple VCA, SDelay, Plate Reverb, Pink Noise, MiVerb, MiVerb2, MiPShift, MiEnsemble, MiChorus, HiHat1, G-Verb, Freeverb, FBDlyLine, EChorus, Progen Reverb, CDelay

Notes: It takes incoming triggers and repeats them - you can think of it as a delay module for triggers. The delay time and the number of repeats can be set with a knob and additionally be CV controlled. Beyond of static delay, the delays of one input trigger can be accelerated or decelerated, leading to the rhythm of a bouncing ball. In another mode, the probability of the output triggers can be chosen.

Different output modes change the assignment of the delays to the eight outputs; either, all delayed triggers for one input trigger are on one output, or the delays go through the outputs 1...8. By this, complex events can be triggered.

Finally, the acceleration and the gate time can be CV controlled as well.

The module is "polyphonic" in a sense, that consecutive triggers at the input don't stop currently running trigger outputs from a previous trigger, but mixing them all. Together with variable delay times and acceleration, highly complex trigger patterns can appear on each of the eight outputs.

Notes: Identical to the OR2x4 module in full size, but shrunk to 1/3 size. It contains two logical OR functions with four inputs each; with a switch they can be linked to an 8-input mode. Useful for "summing" gate / trigger signals from different sources.

Please note: These micro modules need a carrier, like the uBASE module. They cannot be mounted directly into an AE case.

Notes: The u4LOGIC is identical to the full-size LOGIC module, but shrunk to 1/3 micro format.

Please note: These micro modules need a carrier, like the uBASE module. They cannot be mounted directly into an AE case.

Notes: The uBASE-QS 2 module is the carrier (or BASE) for four micro modules and explicitly designed for use in the QUICKSWAP CASEs. This carrier module can be plugged into the QS case as any other module; then, the uModules can be plugged in and removed itself into it, even with the AE system running, so you can reconfigure or add needed functions in form of micro modules "on the fly".

A number of sockets provide access to the bus signals, like CV, gate, cotroller, MIDI start/stop/clock.

Included is a small "key" to lift also modules without knobs in an easy way.

Notes: The uFM is an oscillator module, that is focused on FM synthesis.

It's basically a two-operator FM synthesis, but with extended functionality: The operator waveforms can be either sine waves (classic FM), or four other different combinations of non-sinewave waveforms, that produce a much broader palette of sounds beyond the classic sinewave based FM synthesis.

The MOD DPT knob controls the modulation depth; in combination with a button press also the multiplier of the modulating operator can be defined.

Both parameters can be controlled also by CV and also via IMDI by MIDI controllers. The pitch can be controlled via 1V/octave CV or also via IMDI e.g. from a DAW

(For IMDI, see IMDI HEART for more info).

Additional to the normal audio output a suboctave output with a squarewave is provided, and a third output with the mix of the primary oscillator signal and the suboctave.

Quite a lot for such a tiny module, right?

Please note: These micro module needs a carrier, like the uBASE module. The cannot be mounted directly into an AE case.

Notes: The uS&H / RANDOM / NOISE module combines several functionalities for (pseudo) random control; it includes two sample & holds (one of them can be switched to track & hold) and a random/noise section. The latter can be switched between two types of random CV (stepped / smoothed), these either at an internal, tapped rate or an external clock.

Please note: These micro modules need a carrier, like the uBASE module. They cannot be mounted directly into an AE case.

Notes: The uTONE is a bass-treble tone control, that is a quite useful tool to shape the overall spectrum of individual signal paths.

Please note: These micro modules need a carrier, like the uBASE module. They cannot be mounted directly into an AE case.

Notes: This module is best if you want a classic, analog oscillator and prefer fully analog sound generation.? It offers:

- two CV inputs 1V/octave

- Modulation input with Level-knob, switchable to frequency or pulsewidth

- PWM input

- Coarse / Fine knob for frequency

- Pulsewidth knob for square wave

- Square / Triangle / Sawtooth output

The VCO R2 supersedes the VCO module which was part of the AE modular Kickstarter campaign in 2017; with the overall development of AE modular, the old one doesn't really meet the current quality level of AE any more. So we are happy to offer this completely redesigned module, that offers a really good volt/octave tracking over 5-6 octaves (using both CV inputs) and an amazing temperature stability.

Notes: The VSYSTEM-3 is a complete synth in a case of exactly the size of the Korg Volca synths. t contains the following AE modules:

DRUMKIT (lofi digital drum module):

DRUMKIT 010 consists of 11 8-bit drum sound samples; 6 of them can be triggered in parallel in any combination by the trigger inputs. With a BANK selector knob, different combinations of the 11 samples can be selected. The PITCH knob affects the pitch of all instruments together, and with the REVERSE button the sounds are played backwards - quite a nice effect to be added here and there.
Don't expect high quality from this module - it's by design a nasty, lo-fi drum sound source, but definitely with its own character. Works great together with the analog KICK module.

KICK (analog kick drum):

It has three knobs: PITCH for the overall pitch of the sound; with DECAY the length of the sound can be set and with DRIVE a nice distortion can be added to the sound.
With the pitch decay switch the pitch follows the amplitude, giving a bit different character.
And a trigger button is available to check the sound without an external trigger signal.

SAMPLYR (sample player with micro-SD card, various loop modes, almost unlimited sample length):

The samples are simple 8-bit mono WAV files. Features of the module are:
CV control for pitch with 1V/octave
Gate input
NO (practical) LENGTH LIMIT for the sample playback, because the module plays the samples directly from the memory card
Sample is displayed on the included OLED display
For each sample, following playback parameters can be edited: Sample start/end, loop start/end, loop crossfade, transpose/tune, all this settings are visible in the display and are saved per sample
Different loop modes can be selected: Oneshot, Reverse, Loop forward/reverse/alternating, loop hold (loop remains playing when gate goes to off)
Editing of the different parameters is accomplished with an endless encoder and a small menu
CV control for playback start, loop start, loop length, reverting playback, sample selection
Six buttons can be used for quick switching between six samples of the current folder
Additionally to the audio output, the SAMPLYR provides trigger outputs for loop start point, loop end point, playback end; by this, certain other operations can be triggered at these specific points, e.g. synchronizing to the loop points.
...and all this in a 1-unit AE module!

The sample files are organized as simple folders on the micro SD card named "A"..."Z" and per folder files named "0....wav, 1....wav, ..."

Included with the module is a micro-SD card with some demo samples; and each buyer will receive an update for the factory samples, made by the sound designer "empty vessel" exclusively for the SAMPLYR module (provided as download later in 2024).

The SAMPLYR module is of course not a hi-fi, high quality sampler module due to its 8-bit design. It has the flavour of the early samplers like EMU II, Fairlight CMI IIx, Ensoniq Mirage... The typical, recommended sample rate is 16000 Hz. these samples can be pitched up by approx. 1 1/2 octaves max.

Beyond the 8-bit resolution, the samples can be also encoded as uLaw and aLaw; in this case, the resolution is true 10 bits. For converting your existing samples, the open-source audio editor "Audacity" is great for the conversion and editing process.

Note: The SAMPLYR module is a sample player only; it doesn't offer recording of audio.

MIXER 4-4 (4-channel mixer):

This module consists of:
An audio mixer with 4 inputs and their level knobs
Additional 4 separate inputs that are mixed at full level (especially for mixing CV signals) and a separate output

HEARTBEAT (precise clock source, with BPM setting, and tempo-tapping):

HEARTBEAT is a master clock source for AE modular, with some additional features. The module offers:
Precise BPM setting with an encoder in the range of 30-300 BPM in steps of 0.1 BPM
A graphical display for the tempo and additional info and menu
A big tap button for setting the tempo by tapping it
An illuminated start/stop button
Six independent clock outputs; each of them can be configured by a menu to a time signature between 1/1 to 1/32th plus dotted and triplets.
Inputs for clock, reset and two CV and trigger inputs that can be assigned to different functions
The clock source can be either internal or an external clock (at 1/96th rate which corresponds to MIDI real time

TRIQ164 (4-channel, 16-step trigger sequencer, with repeat/ratched per step):

Four track buttons select the track to be edited; with 16 buttons each step of the track can be activated an is then displayed by an LED.

Stereo Headphone amplifier, 2 IN/OUT sockets via a stereo minijack

It is delivered completely with power wall adapter and patchwires; everything needed to get the modular system started!

This is a REAL modular synth system; all modules can be rearranged and swapped as you like.

Notes: The VMIX-10 R2 is the successor of the popular VMIX-10; a mixer made especially with the Korg Volca series in mind; it offers the following features:

6 mono input channels with minijack sockets each
2 stereo input channels with stereo minijack sockets for each
click-free mute buttons per channels
per channel: level, pan and two FX-send knobs
2 FX send-return sections (send mono, return stereo)
master level control
stereo headphone output with separate level control
four DC isolated 9V power supply outputs, for Volca synths or other devices. The DC isolation suppresses noise especially when powering Volcas from the VMIX-10 (an annoying effect caused by a design detail of the Volcas when powered commonly with the VMIX-10).

The case size is identical with the Volca series, so the VMIX-10 should fit exactly in the Volca stands that are available from different suppliers.

It includes a power supply adapter with snap-on plugs for EU, UK and US (AU on request).

For powering your Volca synths from the VMIX-10, Tangible Waves offer this cable:

DC Cable for Volca

For connecting gear with 1/4" jack sockets, adapters are sold separately;

Adapter mono minijack plug to 1/4" socket

Adapter stereo minijack plug to 2x 1/4" socket
