A classic electro percussion synthesis design reborn as something completely different.

We wanted to recreate a classic hihat synthesis design as something new and exciting, so, we took the super electro 808 circuit and transformed it into a powerful creative tool for modular synthesis!


FEATURES

  • Analogue hihat circuitry capable of synthesising vanilla TR-808 open and closed hihat sounds (simultaneously)

  • External audio input lets you synthesise hihats from virtually any sound source (Jupiter Storm, vcNOIZ, etc.)

  • Lo-fidelity original VCAs replaced by OTA-based modern VCAs

  • VCA DRIVE control for each hihat allows you to dial in anything from soft metallic hihats to extremely overdriven, crunchy hihats

  • Exclusive switch lets you select how the two hihats (open/closed) interact with eachother when triggered at the same time

  • Cutoff frequency control for internal resonant bandpass filter

  • Resonant filter can be switched on/off

  • Modular level mutual accent input (0-5V CV)

  • Trigger input accepts almost anything as a trigger signal

  • 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 and OTA equivalents

  • You can dial in super hot, modular level output levels (up to 20Vp-p!)
