Endless possibilities with 23 interconnected modules The PULSAR-23 boasts 23 modules each designed to offer maximum flexibility and creativity. These include four unique sound generators four envelope generators and multiple CV-controlled effects. The modules are designed to interact fluidly allowing you to experiment with different combinations and configurations. The result is a device that can function as a traditional drum machine a bass synthesizer or an abstract noise generator depending on how you choose to patch it. Whether you’re creating complex rhythms or exploring new soundscapes the PULSAR-23 gives you the tools to do so with complete control. Innovative organismic synthesizer design The PULSAR-23 features an organismic synthesizer structure where every module can interact with every other module mirroring the complex behaviours found in living systems. This design philosophy encourages non-linear dynamic sound creation where any part of the system can take the lead. This opens up new avenues for creativity as you’re not confined to traditional signal paths. You can use audio signals as control signals and vice versa creating unexpected and inspiring results. This makes the PULSAR-23 an exceptional tool for those who enjoy pushing the boundaries of sound design. Alligator clips system for flexible patching The PULSAR-23 introduces an alligator clips connection system which is not only cost-effective but also incredibly versatile. The system allows for easy reliable connections across multiple points without the bulk and expense of traditional patch cables. You can attach multiple clips to a single pin allowing for complex signal routing and modulation. This system is also ideal for live performances where you can quickly re-route signals on the fly without worrying about breaking connections. Additionally the alligator clips system makes it easy to integrate external components or even unconventional objects into your sound chain offering endless experimental possibilities. Live circuit bending and hands-on creativity One of the standout features of the PULSAR-23 is its live circuit bending capabilities allowing you to manipulate sound in real-time using your body or external components. The device is designed with several patch points specifically for circuit bending making it easy to experiment with different resistors capacitors or even organic materials like fruits to alter your sound. The PULSAR-23’s unique patch-point design also allows you to use your skin’s conductivity to control modulation creating a tactile and intuitive performance experience. This feature makes the PULSAR-23 not just a drum machine but an instrument for real-time sonic exploration and innovation.
