Synthrotek DS-M Drum Synth

The DS-M is a full featured drum synth that can emulate virtually any drum sound!

The DS-M (Drum Synth Module) is a complex, modifiable, 100% analog drum synth loosely based on the Coron DS-8 and neatly packaged into an 8hp module.

Changes to the original DS-8 include:
– VCA-like trigger input (more voltage = louder output)
– Trimmer-adjustable attack
– LED trigger indicator
– 1v/o tracking (C0-C4)
– Triangle core oscillator
– Additional noise color switch setting (3 settings instead of 2)
– More distinct noise timbres
– Louder, improved noise circuit
– Really LOW bass frequencies
– Total range ~4Hz to 2.6kHz

In addition to being a highly versatile analog drum synth, this unit is also a fully functional monophonic synth that has these features:
– 1v/o tracking (C0-C4)
– Adjustable attack and decay envelope over the VCA
– Built-in LFO circuit
– Sweep circuit
– Noise circuit

Plug your control voltage and gate directly out of your midi-to-CV converter or connect your QuNexus keyboard, Arturia keyboard, or sequencer, and you’re ready to make some music!

Note: Complete units come pre-calibrated (according to the Synthrotek Deluxe Power Supply System). If you are building a kit or have a different power supply system, you will need to calibrate the 1v/o tracking using the DS-M calibration guide.

Depth: 1.75″ (44mm)
Power connection: 10 Pin Keyed Eurorack
Current Draw: +12V: 20mA, -12V: 10mA (5V not used)
