Rossum Electro-Music Mob of Emus
Six channels of oscillators, modulators, noise and rhythms with macro Hex Mode control.
16 HP Eurorack module
Mob of Emus packs six independent channels into 16HP, each capable of operating as a wide-range digital oscillator, cyclical or one-shot modulator (LFOs, envelopes, S&H, smoothed random, rhythm patterns), noise source, or quantizer. Eight real-time controls give immediate hands-on access to each channel's key parameters in primary mode plus two latched Option modes (labelled in blue) for additional functions like Fine Tune, hard sync, or 1-Shot mode. A dedicated Hex Mode layer (orange labels) lets all six channels be offset simultaneously while preserving their individual programming. Six CV inputs operate in one of six Global CV Modes (MULTI/FREQ/TRIG/GAIN/WAVE/QUANT), and twelve user presets store complete state. Six individual outputs plus an assignable Mix output make it the heart of additive, polyrhythmic, and quantized patches.
