Brand
Error Instruments is a boutique synth manufacturer from the Netherlands, known for raw, experimental designs that sit comfortably at the noisier, stranger edges of modular synthesis. Rather than aiming for polite or conventional sounds, the brand embraces instability, texture, and unpredictability — making its modules favourites among noise artists and adventurous sound designers.
The range often blends synthesis with physical interaction, feedback paths, and unconventional control methods, encouraging hands-on exploration and happy accidents. Build quality is solid, aesthetics are distinctive, and the results are rarely subtle. If you’re looking to break out of clean, predictable modular territory, Error Instruments offers tools that reward curiosity, chaos, and creative risk-taking.

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.
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.
An oscillator is the core sound source in a synthesizer, responsible for generating the raw audio signal that everything else is built from. It produces basic waveforms such as sine, saw, square and triangle, which can then be shaped and processed into more complex sounds.
What makes oscillators so important is their role in defining the character of a sound. Different oscillator types and designs can produce anything from smooth, pure tones to rich, harmonically complex textures. In modular systems, multiple oscillators can be combined, tuned and modulated to create evolving and expressive sounds.
Oscillators are simply great — fundamental, versatile and essential to synthesis. Whether you’re building basic tones or complex soundscapes, they are at the heart of your sound, and you will not be disappointed.
