ElektrofonKlang Polyphonic Controller

Elektrofon Klang

Klang from Elektrofon is a stunning and intuitive polyphonic controller, designed to provide easy control of harmonic progression in a multi-voice Eurorack system. The Klang features a direct and inspiring interface of four encoders which select between notes on Klang's vibrant, clockface OLED display. A number on each dial provides the octave for each note, letting you create both closed and wide-open voicings. When you've found some tetrachords that suit your taste, they can be added to a chord progression with the "+" button, setting the newly selected chord after the current one, or the active chord may be deleted from memory with the "-" button.

Klang features three CV inputs that either advance or reverse your chord progression. The two jacks labelled with forward or backward arrows receive triggers to advance the chord progression in either direction, while the middle, bidirectional arrow jack sets direction with positive or negative voltages. For moving your tonal center around, Klang can also transpose its outputs based on the voltage received in its jack marked with a circular arrow. While Klang defaults to notes of the twelve tone chromatic scale for straightforward use in equal-tempered tonality, it also supports tuning between semitones, allowing you to explore new divisions of the octave, introduce characterful imperfections, and more.  

The encoder positioned under the Klang's display allows you to set the active chord from all the chords you've stored within Klang's memory, and can be clicked to pause on the current chord and ignore incoming triggers. Holding this encoder down activates the module's tuning mode, setting every note to middle C. This is very handy for tuning your oscillators quickly and efficiently. With both a powerful polyphonic pitch manager and plenty of convenient tools for tuning, Klang creates a powerful tonal environment for any Eurorack system.
