BTFLD by Schlappi Engineering — 4-Bit Folding + Binary Rhythm Mayhem.

The BTFLD by Schlappi Engineering is a clever mashup of a distortion unit, wavefolder, and basic bit-crusher, all blended into a single module with an analog-to-digital converter twist. It takes whatever you have patched into its input and transforms the signal at 6 different outputs. There’s a sawtooth-based wavefolder that delivers a gritty hard-sync-like character. There’s also a 4-bit converter, which breaks down signals into discrete square wave outputs, each representing specific binary weightings. This provides a stepped, crushed effect on audio but can also be used to create intricate rhythms when processing slower modulations like LFOs or envelopes. The last output is a combined stepped output that sums the 4 square outputs together.

Unlike a typical bit-crusher, which usually delivers a harsh reduction in bit depth, the BTFLD, through its four independent bit-based outputs, can re-interpret signals into clock division and frequency multiplication effects. This makes it great for rhythmic experimentation or gritty tonal shaping. Another special thing is how these four outputs can work together – mixing the stepped signal back into the folded output, for instance, adds weight and definition to what might otherwise be thin or aggressive sounds.

BTFLD’s bit-based outputs open a door to logical and rhythmic patching in your rack, especially when combined with Schlappi’s other binary modules, like the Nibbler or BTMX. By pairing these together, you’re essentially playing with a mini 4-bit computing network, where each output acts as a distinct “on/off” switch to sequence or modulate other parts of your rack. This module definitely brings a few new unique ideas to the table, much beyond your usual bit-crusher — unlike conventional wavefolders or distortion modules, BTFLD is capable of translating incoming signals into both folded waveforms and binary rhythms.

Features: 

  • 6 related outputs
  • Unique wavefolding circuit
  • Switched range for bipolar audio signals or unipolar modulation signals
  • Acts as distortion/wavefolder or rhythm generator depending on input
  • 4 bit binary output interfaces with other logic modules
  • LED indication for every input and output
