Erica Synths Liquid Sky Dada Noise System II Eurorack Modular Synthesizer System

Erica Synths in cooperation with the Liquid Sky Artist collective present the Dada Noise System II - a modular synth-lab which is dedicated to creating all manner of abstract organic analog noise, ambient soundscapes, industrial noise, badass bass, spheric atmospheres, experimental unheard drones, sonic glitches, and of course all kinds of thrilling horror and sci-fi sounds. Every single module in the system can be used as a standalone sound source. When they are united in the Erica Synths Liquid Sky Dada Noise System II Eurorack Modular Synthesizer System, the possibilities for sound, noise and atmosphere are limitless!

What is "dada"?

Dada was one of the most important art/film/design/music/performance movements of the last century. Over 100 years ago the dada-multimedia-artists were changing the world forever and still have impact on the scene today

INCLUDES:

FUSION VCO2

Fusion VCO is a special kind of VCO – it fuses the great tuning of a digital VCO with the warm and unique sound of vacuum tubes that work in suboscillator circuit. This module contains two double triodes in bistable latch connection that act as suboscillators: -1 and -2 octaves with plenty of mixing opportunities for amazing sonic results. External audio signal can replace internal VCO. If you wish to go for really low frequencies and have a sound that sets your modular system apart from others – this is exactly the module, you need!

FUSION VCF3

The Fusion VCF3 is resonant 24 dB/oct lowpass filter of unique design that combines vacuum tubes and vactrols, providing distinct, soft filtering. For more versatility, the independent audio mixer and buffered multiple is incorporated in the module, and, most importantly – a CV recorder that records motion of the potentiometer, so you can design advanced modulation patterns.

FUSION MODULATOR

Fusion Modulator is complex, all analog modulation source with lots of distinct features. It consists of several blocks – two EMS Synthi functionality inspired looping envelope generators with simultaneous unipolar (0V-10V) and bipolar (-5V-+5V), VCA, Noise generator and Sample&Hold. This makes Fusion Modulator a versatile modulation source for advanced modular setups, especially drone music oriented ones. Set lopping envelope generators to high frequencies and have two sub bass sound sources, use VCA to control the amplitude of the envelope signal, modulate the decay time by random voltages from S&H circuit and get ever evolving sonic awesomeness!

BLACK STEREO DELAY

Black Stereo Delay is a hi-fi stereo delay with a lot of unique features, based on Erica's custom DSP engine. Tape, digital and ping-pong modes of delay, hold with overdub and delicate delay time and feedback control in combination with CV and trigger control over various parameters make this module not only great effects unit in your modular system but also - an instrument on its own.

BLACK JOYSTICK2

Black Joystick2 is 4 channel (2 axis on each channel) multi functional CV and sound source – joystick, movement recorder, distinct LFO and drone/noise oscillator. It provides great interaction with the modular system and allows to develop unconventional modulation patterns easily.

Black Joystick2 is one of the main elements of the Dada Noise System II which allow automations in sound and effects, positioning in the quadraphonic room, or can function as experimental sequencer and sound source.

BLACK VC CLOCK

Black VC Clock is the beating heart of your modular system. This module generates several clock signals simultaneously and has some more advanced features like tap tempo, shuffle and divide, both for controlled rhythmic music production and for experiments with high level of uncertainty. You may also find the adjustable and even random duty circle of shuffling and random clock outputs interesting. Bonus feature – the module can be used as a performance time stopwatch.

BLACK MODULATOR

Black Modulator is a fully analog modulation and noise source. This module has LFO/audio frequency oscillator with three simultaneous waveform outputs, Zener diode-based noise generator with three noise flavors and clockable S&H circuit.

BLACK DUAL VCF

Black Dual VCF is a dual multimode filter with CV control over cutoff and resonance for serious modular patches. At the core of this VCF is a highly stable, custom multimode VCF chip AS3320 (produced in Riga, btw). This module can be used as two independent VCFs with simultaneous HP, BP and LP outputs, controls can be linked to stereo application and both VCFs can be chained in series or parallel to the summing output for ultimate modulations. Bonus feature – the 16 band spectrum analyser gives you visual feedback on what happens on summing output.

BLACK QUAD VCA

Black Quad VCA, despite its compact size, is designed in line with the Black Series Hi-Fi philosophy, custom pre-emphasis – de-emphasis circuits preserve all the nuances of the original signal. If you wish to shape the sound in advanced ways, but you also want to save some rack space then the Black Quad VCA is what you need. Quad VCA features uunique automatic mixing of outputs and configurable CV addressing. If no CV is applied Black Quad VCA performs as a signal mixer as well. Use it with Erica Black Dual EG/LFO and you have a compact, top quality setup!

BLACK SPRING REVERB

Black Spring Reverb is a different take on spring reverberation units. Firstly, it has built in vactrol based audio compressor, secondly, it can operate an external tank and combination of both internal and external ones for effects unheard before, thirdly, in order to animate reverb effect, the module has built-in feedback effects – pitch shifters, delay, ring-modulator, etc; feedback amount and effect parameters can be controlled manually and via CV, making the module an experimental instrument on its own. Module comes with compact spring reverberation tank which can be easily installed in most eurorack cases.

BLACK OUTPUT

Black Output is a high quality output mixer and a stereo panner with balanced outputs and headphone amplifier for monitoring your modular masterpieces. All inputs are buffered. Black Output employs stereo potentiometers (similar to those used in high quality studio mixers) for panning, IN4 is a stereo input with simultaneous level adjustment for both channels, IN3 has a CV controlled autopan function. There is also a 6.3mm jack for the balanced outputs and headphones.
