After Later Audio - Pique 1U (Peaks)
- Order number: 220473
Pique is a modulation tool and drum module inspired by Mutable Instruments Peaks, but in the convenient 1U format.
Pique converts incoming trigger signals on two channels into ADSR envelopes, synchronized LFOs, tap-tempo LFOs or drum sounds. The Dead Man's Catch firmware allows you to access 22 modes instead of the original four.
The modes at a glance:
Basic (original modes)
- Envelope
- LFO
- Tap LFO
- Bass/Snare Drums
Alternative ENV
- Double attack envelope
- Repeating attack envelope
- Looping envelope
- Randomized AD envelope
- Bouncing ball envelope
Alternative LFO
- Frequency-modulated LFO (folded sine FM)
- Frequency-modulated LFO (random FM)
- Varying wave shape LFO ( folded sine WS mod)
- Varying wave shape LFO ( random WS mod)
- Phase-locked loop oscillator
- Alternative TAP Mini-sequencer
ModSequencer
- Pulse Shaper
- Pulse Randomizer
- Turing Machine
- Bytebeats
Alternative DRUM
- FM drum Generators
- Randomized bass and snare drum generator
- Randomized hihat
Split can synchronize the channels. If the LED is off, both channels are controlled simultaneously by the same pots. This is good for duophonic patches, where you need e.g. two envelopes with identical settings. In the LFO modes, the outputs are out of phase.
If the LED is on, we are in split mode. The upper two pots control the most important parameters of the first channel and the lower two pots control those of the second channel. Other parameters remain in "neutral" settings.
Press the button for a second and you're in expert mode, where you can switch between each channel and set each parameter individually.
Pique is based on the design of Émelie Gillet. The Jakplugg PCB is built in.
Regarding Manuals it´s best if you start with the Original Peaks Manual, and then move on the the Dead Man´s Catch Manual 1, as well as Manual 2.

After Later Audio are Lenny and Clarissa from Seattle. They build clones of popular Eurorack modules but also have a much more extensive repertoire of self-designed modules for Eurorack systems.
