Hexinverter Red Dragon

COLOUR…TONE…CHARACTER…

12 HP Eurorack module

A four-pole resonant low-pass filter with a Soviet-era core and continuously variable 6 dB to 24 dB slope.

Features

  • Voltage-controlled resonance.
  • Resonance can self-oscillate, with clipping available to tame extreme feedback.
  • Built-in post-filter VCA that can be disabled.
  • Continuously morphs between 6 dB and 24 dB filter slopes.
  • Input-stage core overdrive reaches full saturation.

Controls & Jacks (19)

  • Output VCA— On fully opens the built-in VCA for standalone-filter use; off enables VCA control from the VCA CV input.
  • Resonance Clip— When on, clips resonance feedback at extreme settings for a tamer resonance tone.
  • Morph CV— Control-voltage input for the filter-slope morph parameter.
  • Drive CV Amount— Bipolar attenuverter for the Drive CV input.
  • Input Drive— Sets input-stage core overdrive, from normal level to full saturation.
  • Cutoff— Sets the filter cutoff frequency.
  • Audio Out— Filtered audio output.
  • Drive CV— Control-voltage input for input-drive saturation.
  • Morph CV Amount— Bipolar attenuverter for the Morph CV input.
  • Morph— Morphs continuously between 6 dB and 24 dB filter slopes.
  • Resonance CV Amount— Bipolar attenuverter for the Resonance CV input.
  • Resonance— Sets the filter resonance, which is capable of self-oscillation.
  • Cutoff CV A Amount— Bipolar attenuverter for the Cutoff CV A input.
  • Cutoff CV B— Additional cutoff CV input.
  • Input— Audio input to the filter and core-drive stage.
  • Cutoff CV A— Cutoff CV input with its own dedicated attenuverter.
  • Resonance CV— Resonance control-voltage input.
  • VCA CV— VCA control-voltage input; use it with the OUT VCA switch off.
  • Morph and VCA— Dual-colour indicator showing filter morph position and VCA level.

How-To Guides

  • Cross-modulate cutoff
  • Use the built-in VCA
  • Use as a standalone filter
