With two transistor sub oscillators, it can also provide aggressive distortion for percussive sounds. Here's the details.
New from Erica Synths is Black Double Bass - a unique module that combines two transistor suboscillators (-1 and -2 octaves) and lowpass filter. It does not make sound on its own, but it will turn any VCO or beeper into massive bass sound with CV control over octave mix and cutoff frequency. Sync input that resets suboscillators on incoming pulse, provides even more versatility in sound design. The module can be also provide aggressive distortion, when used with percussive sounds like bass drums.
Features
Two transistor based -1 and -2 octaves suboscillators
Manually and CV controlled fade between suboscillators
