XAOC Devices - Karl-Marx-Stadt

Karl Marx Stadt is a front-end for Doepfer's DIY synth and it's a super-easy solution to turn it into an Eurorack synthesizer voice. No soldering and screwing required, just plug and play! It takes 5 seconds!

The expander module makes everyone unwilling to DIY very happy as it will save you the purchase, wiring and soldering of potentiometers, sockets and the pesky drilling and lettering of a face plate or a housing and finally the power supply issue!

All controls, and sockets are integrated in the KMS, all you need is to connect the DIY synth's pin headers to the corresponding sockets of the KMS and to install the cable for the temperature compensation. Finally connect the ribbon cable to the Eurorack powre supply and THAT'S IT! Takes five seconds only!

The Karl Marx Stadt uses all patch points of the DIY synth and even expands it a little: The filter's feedback loop has been broken up and can be patched freely now. Number two: the inverter circuit providing the inverted envelope signal can be used autarkly as well. There's a normalization from the ADSR out to the, now available, inverter input socket. And the slew limiter can be used separately, too

As the module is normalized internally you can use the DIY synth instantly, all you need to connect is a pitch CV and a gate signal!
