What your modular system needs is more cowbell and Erica Synths has just the thing
6HP cowbell module based on the Yocto
Erica Synths has announced a new module developed in collaboration with e-licktronic, makers of the Yocto drum machine.
The cowbell module builds on the Yocto version and adds more features suited for modular systems, including Tune and Decay controls, as well as Tune CV with an attenuator.
Alongside the Cowbell module comes the Black Multi, an active buffered mulitple that can deliver 2x 1to3 or 1to6 that works for signal splitting in any circuit, including driving several VCOs in tune from one CV source.
Cowbell is available now for €130 and you’ll find info on both modules on the Erica Synths website.

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
