What do you get when you combine voltage controlled distortion and one of the most infamous bassdrums? We took one of the most revered bassdrum synthesis designs of all time and completely redesigned it for use in a modular analogue synthesizer!
FEATURES
Analogue bassdrum circuitry capable of vanilla TR-808 sounds
Built in voltage controlled distortion (batteryACID distortion)
Distortion accepts external inputs when not being used with kick drum (great for acid synth leads)
Voltage control of distortion amount
Voltage control of decay from short kicks to long "ooooooooomphs"
Voltage control of pitch (approximates v/oct response, but not musically tuned)
Non-invasive analogue optocouplers used for voltage control, thus, completely vintage sounds can still be had if that's what you're after!
Completely redesigned, hi-fi signal chain spares no expense by replacing cheap transistor amplifiers with low noise opamp equivalents
You can dial in super hot, modular level output levels (up to 20Vp-p!)

Behind the furore of #redpolo and the Burzum Bambi tee, it's easy to forget the utter bat-shit chaos of Surgeon's set: an hour of head-wreck driving techno behind a tangle of wires and heavy-duty hardware.
The Mutant Bassdrum is a feature-rich analogue bassdrum derivative of the TR-808. It is a eurorack format module for analog synthesis and will be available in June 2014 as a eurorack module and do it yourself PCB/panel set. **SORRY FOR THE QUIET VOLUME!
