Fully featured module, hard to use the knobs

Knobs are in a very tight space, if you have cables on top and on the bottom it's impossible to use the knobs. I don't recommend this module only because of this.

Other than that has many useful features, if you're on a budget go for it.

Very useful module with surprisingly many features

I needed an extra LFO, mixer, and attenuators in my modular, and this module has it all plus more. Very useful.

Pros: Lots of features packed into 10 hp, nice design

Cons: If cables are inserted above and under the knobs, it's a bit difficult to tweak them.

Underrated!

For it's size, it's one of the most useful modules out there.

On a downside, knobs are tiny and spaced closely and, there for, hard to use once you have many cables patched.

It's a blessing for a small systems and smart "fill up" for the larger ones!

Massive bang for your buck

The versatility of the module is amazing. It can take over the job of several modules in your system and, while it won't grab the headlines like the other chromatic modules, it is a truly indispensable workhorse. It can be used multiple times in one patch and is a godsend in a minimalist setup.

I would recommend using a colour-code system if you don't want to loose track of what is going in and out of this module.

You can feel you are left to your own devices if you are new to modulars as the manual is sparce - but discovery is the lifeblood of modular synths so enjoy the journey.
