Tiptop Audio FSU Timbral Distortion Effects Module - Black Panel COLOR CABLE KIT
This Kraft Music Bundle Includes
Tiptop Audio FSU Timbral Distortion Effects Module - Black Panel
Tiptop Audio FSU brings aggressive and destructive processing ranging from guitar pedal inspired distortion to granular processing to tape recorder-style sound-on-sound looping. Built on the same platform as ECHOZ, ZVERB and Z5000, ModFX has the same easy-to-use and compact UI with CV control over all three DSP parameters and FIDELITY control over the DSP clock.
Ad Infinitum 3.5mm Color Patch Cable - Blue - 12"
A 12" blue patch cord, 3.5mm / 1/8" mono for eurorack modular synthesizers.
Ad Infinitum 3.5mm Color Patch Cable - Green - 12"
A 12" green patch cord, 3.5mm / 1/8" mono for eurorack modular synthesizers.
Ad Infinitum 3.5mm Color Patch Cable - Red - 12"
A 12" red patch cord, 3.5mm / 1/8" mono for eurorack modular synthesizers.
Ad Infinitum 3.5mm Color Patch Cable - Yellow - 12"
A 12" yellow patch cord, 3.5mm / 1/8" mono for eurorack modular synthesizers.

Distortions in the DISTORT bank include ring modulation and frequency shifting for vintage analog mayhem. The GLITCH bank has time-based effects that abuse aspects of delay and pitch, pushing them to more experimental and extreme sounds. SOS (sound-on-sound) uses a short reel-to-reel-inspired 'tape loop' and adds a variety of digital processes like pitch shifting and granular playback to make it even more experimental.
- Module controls
- DISTORT, GLITCH, SOS buttons: select effects bank, 8 programs per bank
- DRIVE/DEPTH knob: set the the gain going into a distortion effect (drive) or the range of modulation or how far a delay tap or grain reads out of the buffer (depth)
- FILTER/FBACK knob: set cutoff frequency of a filter or the amount of feedback
- RATE/GAIN knob: set speed of modulation or similar parameter (rate) or final output level in the DISTORT bank or recording level in the SOS bank (gain)
- FIDELITY knob: control over DSP clock, effect varies per program
- IN knob: set input gain
- MIX knob: set mix between dry input signal and wet processed sound
- Patch points
- GAIN input: CV control over final output level in the DISTORT bank or recording level in the SOS bank
- FIDELITY input: CV control over FIDELITY parameter
- FILTER input: CV control cutoff frequency of a filter or the amount of feedback
- IN input: audio input
- L and R outputs: mono/stereo audio output
- Physical specifications
