Description
Turn your modular system into a self-contained music machine with the black Tiptop Audio CP909, a Eurorack module featuring the original 909 analog clap circuit. Adapting the circuit to the modular format has allowed a special trash feature to be added. The trash circuit adds greatly to the frequency of the internal noise generator without compromising the signature sound of the TR-909 clap.The CP909 includes a high-powered output gain stage capable of producing hot signals. On the inputs, Tiptop Audio have designed a pulse-shaper circuit, so you can trigger the CP909 with trigger/gate signals from step sequencers, clocks, dividers, or any other pulse/clock sources. This eliminates the need to shape pulses sent to the module and ensures the same stable sound at peak power, regardless of your pulse source. The CP909 is tuned to sound like a machine that came fresh off the original '80s assembly line. The module ships with a ribbon power cable.At a Glance TR-909 s Clap circuit adapted for use in Eurorack formatTuned to sound like a machine that came fresh off the original '80s assembly lineIndependent Accent levelTrash circuit with control knob adds complexity to the frequency of the internal noise generatorBD909 Overview The CP909 clap effect is made by a special triple-saw envelope generator that controls the gain of a VCA. The sound source feeding into the VCA is made by a quasi-random logic- based noise generator. Some might call it digital noise, though this term might be misleading in today's world of microcontrollers and sound samples. What really makes the noise generator is a ring of logic gates, so primitive, so '80s, and so much the sound of the 909 Clap.Eurorack Ready 4 HP Eurorack format moduleMaximum depth: 1.4" (36mm)Includes power ribbon cable with Eurorack power headersPower consumption: +12V, 6mA; -12V, 10mA
