Dreadbox has introduced the Erebus, a new semi-modular paraphonic analog synth module.

It offers what is essentially a monophonic synth architecture, but that allows for independent control of its two oscillators. This means you can play (or sequence) two different pitches, but the pitches will go through a shared VCF, VCA, etc.

Features:

Full Analog Paraphonic Synthesizer

Full Analog 2-voice Paraphony or Unison sounds

2 x VCO with separate glide controls

Two pole (12dB/ocv) resonating VC Low Pass Filter

VC LFO with additional VC Depth

2 x Envelope Generators (1xADSR and 1xAR dedicated to the AMP)

VC Delay/Echo

14 patches for an astonishing Modular experience

CV Outputs: LFO, Envelope, Modulation Wheel, Gate, Osc1 pitch (1V/ocv), Osc2 pitch (1V/ocv)

CV Inputs: Osc1, Osc2, Echo time, VCF, LFO rate, LFO depth, CV/Gate

MIDI interface: Pitch note/gate on-off, retrigger function (on-board), Mod wheel (patched on-board), Pitch wheel, MIDI Channel select 1-7 or Omni (DIP switch)

Paraphony CV/GATE outputs allows you to turn monophonic devices into Paraphonic, or even combine 2 monosynths into a paraphony orgy

Here are the official audio demos:

The Dreadbox Erebus is priced at UR $539. See the Dreadbox site for details.
