The best part of the pizza! Crust is a Eurorack voice for kick drums, shakers, hihats and more. A massive module from Bastl.
Crust sets the stage for a truly good pizza. Bastl introduces a powerful drum artist into their pizza ecosystem, capable of satisfying all needs.
In total, you get 4 algorithms, each capable of fulfilling different tasks. With Crust, you can create thunderous kick drums, clattering snares, swishing hi-hats, and groovy shaker rhythms - all in one module! For sound generation, you have 4 noise types and 2 oscillators at your disposal. There are plenty of parameters to create soft or sharp sounds. From filters and envelopes to soft and hard clipping, Crust provides all the necessary parameters.
The numerous CV inputs allow for playful modulations, enriching Crust's sound even further. Additionally, there's an assignable CTRL potentiometer and CV input that can be assigned to any parameter. Full control!
