Intellijel Designs - Ringmod 1U
- Order number: 220406
- Depth: 32
The Ringmod 1U from Intellijel provides a simple but effective ring modulation circuit for the 1U row in your Eurorack system.
This absolute classic among synthesis techniques was already used in the infamous Yamaha CS-80 and transports you directly back to the 80s.
Ringmodulation takes two waveforms - at Ringmod 1U inputs X and Y - and creates a new, third waveform from them, containing the sum and difference frequencies of the two inputs. The sound conveys inharmonic and metallic tones.
When the combined waves run in LFO rates you get very interesting and complex modulation shapes.
Features:
- Active ring modulator that uses a high quality SSI2162 VCA IC.
- DC-coupled so it can be used for both CV and audio.
- Can be used with unipolar control signals as a linear VCA
- Compact size

Manual
Danjel van Tijn started in eurorack with the Mind Meld, an expander for the Livewire Vulcan Modulator. Seeing the potential of eurorack, Danjiel quit his day job at a big corporation and founded Intellijel, which rapidly become a mainstay in the modular, with collaborations with Canadian fellow engineers such as: Cylonix, David G. Nixon or AAS (known for their physical modelling plug-ins). By now Intellijel has one of the most extensive catalogs in eurorack.
