DreadboxAntidote Karplus-Strong Voice

Dreadbox Antidote

Recreate the sound and behavior of a plucked string with Antidote from Dreadbox, a Karplus-Strong synthesis voice for Eurorack modular synthesizers. The analog circuit is based around a 512-stage BBD chip and noise source that can be excited using an external gate or trigger source. An analog low pass filter on both the input and output stage tailor the module's sound to your needs, with the output filter also acting as a low pass gate. It tracks with 1V/oct modulation sources fantastically over a five-octave range from C0 to B4. The delay time ranges from 61ms at C0 to 21ms at B4. Use Antidote to process external signal and function as a resonator, or add an LFO and use as a flanger or chorus. Add a bit of physical modeling or short delay-line processing to your Eurorack with this Karplus Strong module from Dreadbox.
