INVENTORY #58473

BRAND: Noise Engineering

MODEL: Ataraxic Translatron

FUNCTION: Eurorack Synthesizer Module

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: This listing is for a Noise Engineering Ataraxic Translatron Eurorack Synthesizer Module. The Noise Engineering Sinclastic Empulatrix is a compact 4HP Eurorack module that combines an exponential attack-release (AR) envelope generator with a unique "voltage controlled clamp" instead of a traditional VCA. Inspired by the Roland TR-808's hi-hat section, it is widely praised by users on forums like Mod Wiggler for creating sharp percussive hits and drum voices.

SPECS:

• Voltage Controlled Clamp: Unlike a standard VCA that scales a signal, this module uses a clamp that limits the signal by clipping it. This adds a subtle, unique distortion as the envelope decays, making it ideal for percussion.
• Snappy Envelopes: The module generates exponential curves with a wide time range from 50 microseconds to 5 seconds. A rear jumper can increase these times by a factor of 3.5 for longer swells.
• Gate/Trig Modes: A toggle switch allows the module to respond to the full gate length or act as an edge-triggered "ping," which is excellent for consistent percussive envelopes.
• Hit Button: A dedicated button on the faceplate allows for manual triggering of the envelope regardless of the switch setting.
• Size: 4HP.
• Depth: 0.8 inches (approximately 26mm).
• Power Consumption: +12V: 15 mA; -12V: 25 mA.
• Inputs/Outputs: Features Envelope In/Out, Audio In/Out, and a gate input.
• Availability: As of January 2026, the Sinclastic Empulatrix has been officially discontinued by Noise Engineering.
