Knobula Echo Cinematic
Dub-inspired stereo EQ + delay + reverb with knob recorder and dual CV
12 HP Eurorack module
Echo Cinematic is a stereo EQ + delay + reverb effects processor inspired by dub music culture, where analog tape delays were Eq'd and fed back into themselves via a mixing desk FX send bus. The module integrates a resonant three-mode filter (high/low-pass, peak/notch, comb), up to 2 seconds of stereo delay with tap tempo and clock sync, a 24-bit lush stereo reverb, two LFOs for EQ and delay modulation, a 30-second knob recorder that captures all knob movements simultaneously, and two instantly assignable CV inputs. The EQ can be routed into the feedback loop (Dub Mode), after the delay, or across the entire signal path including dry signal.
