Over the past couple years we consistently felt the need for a simple crossfader module that would allow users to switch between two stereo sources, add a stereo effect path, or easily mix a mono source with a stereo one.

For the full details of product availability, preordering and continuing support please visit the WMD website.Stereo patching is becoming more common each day in the Eurorack Modular Synth System and we here at the shop are performing out a ton. Thank you WMD for the noises, the bleeps and the bloops, and we wish you all the best in the future. It’s these modules and these signal manipulators that bring us alive. While we are all suffering from the increased cost of living, I would encourage all those who are able to keep buying and investing in the makers of the gear. As modular enthusiasts, it’s more important than ever to support the makers and manufacturers in our community. WMD also built modules for several other modular firms and so the impact will spread. WMD has handled this with a huge amount of dignity, which must be hard when you see your business disappearing out of control. Orion is $239, Legion is $499 and Subway is $269. That’s just a load of fun right there.Įach module is getting a run of 600. There are many modulation options, including Thru-Zero FM, which hugely benefits from having a pair of Legions pushing into each other. There’s also a “Swarm” supersaw output and a sub-oscillator with a selectable waveform. It adds a “window” to the wave that imposes a negative pulse which comes alive during pulse width modulation. Along with the usual waveforms Legion has a Roland Alpha Juno-inspired saw wave section. Legion is an analogue oscillator with extra outputs and interesting inputs to give it quite a unique flavour. It’s also great for using different modulations to the same destination without having to repatch – perfect for changes in live performance. You can morph between audio signals or perhaps more interestingly, you can move through multiple modulations. Use the buttons to turn channels on and off. Very simply you plug in up to 8 signals and turn the knob to scan between them. Subway is an 8 input, 1 output scanning crossfader. The Performance Mixer seems to be fully sold out already. There will be one more run of Metron which you can preorder now. And we shouldn’t forget the whole range of guitar pedals, processors and effects. And then there’s the hugely impressive Metron trigger and gate sequencer for extraordinary drum programming. The drum modules like Crater, Chimera, Crucible and Fracture are world-class bits of noise, skin, grains and razzle.
#WMD EURORACK DIPTRACE LIBRARY HOW TO#
It completely nails how to mix voices in a modest Eurorack rig. In particular, the Performance Mixer is a staple of almost all performing modular artists. You are likely to find WMD modules in everyone’s rack. WMD is a large player in the Eurorack community. WMD wants to do the best for its employees, and all purchases will help enormously with keeping people on while they wind down. In the meantime, all stock, except for the three new modules, the Performance Mixer and Metron, will go on sale with 30% off. The plan is to close by the end of the year. While they have plenty of fabulous ideas for new products, it’s become impossible to find the chips to bring them to life. In a statement on the website, WMD’s Alex Anderson explains how spiralling costs and lengthening component lead times have devastated their bottom line. This is terrible news, and our hearts go out to the WMD team over in Denver, Colorado.
