Description
The Basimilus Iteritas Alia is a highly versatile digital drum voice built on a flexible 10HP oscillator platform. At its core, it features a six oscillator additive and FM synthesizer, offering a blend of harmonic spread, waveform control, and adjustable envelopes. A dedicated noise oscillator and a powerful wavefolder provide further sonic shaping capabilities. This combination makes sound design both intuitive and highly performable.
Designed for drum synthesis, the BIA excels at creating a vast range of percussive sounds, from deep bass kicks to snappy snares and hi hats. Its capabilities extend beyond percussion, making it a strong choice for basslines and leads. The built in envelope output allows for external modulation, integrating seamlessly into complex Eurorack patches.
Powered by the Noise Engineering Alia platform, this module supports firmware swapping via USB, enabling access to different synthesis engines at any time. Customisable overlays will also be available, allowing for easy panel adjustments. The BIA retains the signature sound of its predecessor, the Basimilus Iteritas Alter, while introducing new features and improved flexibility.
Key Features:
- Versatile drum synthesis:
Six oscillator additive and FM synthesis with extensive waveform, harmonic spread, and envelope control for crafting unique drum sounds. - Expansive modulation options:
Integrated envelope output enables modulation of external modules, enhancing the creative potential of any Eurorack setup. - Firmware swappable Alia platform:
Update and switch between different synthesis engines via USB, with customisable overlays coming soon for seamless module reconfiguration.
Powerful and Expressive Sound Design:
The Basimilus Iteritas Alia delivers a rich palette of percussive sounds with its six oscillator engine. Whether crafting deep, resonant kicks or sharp, metallic snares, the intuitive controls make sound sculpting quick and effortless. The combination of FM synthesis, additive synthesis, and a robust wavefolder ensures a dynamic range of tonal possibilities, suitable for both traditional drum sounds and experimental textures.
Seamless Integration with Eurorack Systems:
Designed for maximum compatibility, the BIA fits effortlessly into any Eurorack setup. Its envelope output extends its functionality, enabling modulation of external modules. With flexible CV control, the module responds dynamically to your patching, making it a highly interactive addition to your rig.
