Patching Panda - Etna
- Order number: 240211
Etna is a successful endeavor by Patching Panda to give Eurorack filters a new twist. These three VCFs with preset morphing go way further than your standard VCF!
Etna combines three analog multimode filters with a mixer, VCAs, presets and a clock divider. Imagine connecting three outputs of your oscillators in one module to individually filter and adjust the amplitude of each signal. The best thing is that once you've found a good setting, you can save it in one of 8 slots and collect a treasure trove of presets. These are then all morphable, which produces very interesting and unique results.
There is a common resonance parameter for all filters and faders for the filter frequencies and amplitudes. The potentiometers below the faders are analog parameters to allow delicate playing even in morph mode. The individual slots are stepped through with triggers. You can also send these triggers through the internal clock divider! The resonance of the filter is finely tuned and ends shortly before self-oscillation. This gives you full control and is therefore ideal for live performances.
The most important features are CV controllable! Modulate filter frequencies with audio for intricate soundscapes or ping the resonant filters for percussive fun! Of course you can also use Etna as three separate filters!
Etna is an exciting attempt to combine classic functions. The result is a perfect module for basement sound researchers or stage performers!

Manual
Patching Panda modules are created to design signal ideas taking advantage of the wide range of possibilities with the modular synth. Giving you the ability to build a complex sound from scratch, which is the main idea of modular synthesizers.
