XAOC Devices Nin

Manual gates and dual CV expansion for Zadar

3 HP Eurorack module

Nin is a compact expander module for the Xaoc Devices Zadar quadruple envelope generator, adding four manual gate buttons and a second set of assignable CV inputs for each of Zadar's four channels. It extends Zadar's live performance and modulation capabilities by enabling hands-on triggering and dual CV parameter assignment per channel.

Features

  • Four tactile manual gate buttons (A, B, C, D) for triggering each Zadar channel independently
  • Four ASGN2 CV inputs (A, B, C, D) providing a second assignable control voltage input per Zadar channel
  • Unlocks an additional menu page on Zadar for assigning up to two voltage controlled parameters per channel
  • No separate power connector required — powered entirely through the Zadar expansion header
  • Ribbon cable connection to Zadar via dedicated expansion header on Zadar's PCB
  • Red stripe on ribbon cable must align with white dot on Zadar's expansion header for correct operation
  • Compatible with Zadar firmware rev. 2.0 and later (pre-2019 units require firmware update)
  • Available in optional Coal Mine black panel sold separately
