Swirls is a 8HP version of Mutable Instruments Tides for Eurorack Modular.
This is a PCB and Panel only, for Eurorack format modular synthesizers!
Swirls is a 8HP version of Mutable Instruments Tides
PCB v1.0 is tested and working known issues : side holes for the trimmers are too small, Silkscreen Mistake (C26 & R27 are flipped)
PCB V1.1 the errors of v1.0 are fixed but it's untested yet
The front panel is double Side
Raw data about Tides:
Tides is all about waves that go up and down, from minute-long cycles to audio rates... This module is Mutable Instruments' unique take on the looping AD envelope generator - pushing this well-known trope to unknown territories.
The core of the module is a digital asymmetric triangle function generator, which can be used in AD and AR modes (for envelope generation), or looping (as a VC-LFO or VC-DO). The triangle generator is followed by a wavetable waveshaper providing linear, exponential, logarithmic, sinusoidal, or arc-sinusoidal shapes for the A and D segments. Then, a second processor applies either a 2-pole low-pass filter to the waveform, smoothing its sharp edges; or a rubbery wavefolder, adding kinks and "bounces" to the waveform. Because Tides has been designed from the ground up to work at audio rates with minimal aliasing, and because all its parameters are under voltage control, it can be used as a unique self-contained synth voice.
