Brand
2hp is a Eurorack modular synthesiser brand known for designing ultra-compact modules that fit into just 2HP of rack space. The company focuses on delivering essential synthesis functions and effects in a minimal footprint, allowing users to build powerful systems without expanding their case size.
2hp modules are popular with modular musicians who value efficiency, portability, and smart use of space. Despite their small size, the modules offer full-featured sound and processing, making them well suited to dense, travel-friendly, and highly optimised Eurorack setups.

Eurorack is a modular synthesis format with standardised dimensions, power connections, and signal levels. Eurorack systems are built from individual modules mounted in cases, allowing users to create highly customisable instruments tailored to specific sound design and performance needs.
MIDI is a digital control standard used to transmit performance and control data between electronic instruments, computers, and hardware devices. It carries information such as note data, velocity, timing, and parameter changes rather than audio, allowing instruments and software to communicate, stay in sync, and control each other. MIDI is fundamental to modern music production, sequencing, and live performance setups.
A module is a self-contained unit designed to perform a specific function within a larger system. Modules are commonly used in modular and Eurorack setups, where each unit handles tasks such as sound generation, modulation, filtering, or control, allowing systems to be built and expanded piece by piece.
Monophonic is the ability to play only one note at a time. It is used for focused, expressive parts where pitch, articulation, and modulation are more important than chords. For example, a monophonic instrument is often used for bass lines or lead sounds, allowing smooth note transitions, slides, and detailed control over dynamics and movement.
New Gear is unused and in original condition, supplied as it leaves the manufacturer. It is chosen for guaranteed reliability, full functionality, and the assurance of manufacturer support. For example, buying new ensures access to the latest design revisions, included accessories, and official warranty coverage.
