XAOC Devices Zadar
Vector envelope sculptor with infinite resolution
10 HP Eurorack module
Zadar is a shape-shifting envelope generator that treats envelopes as infinitely scalable vector graphics. It feels like having a graphic designer's toolkit for modulation — you can stretch, warp, flip, and chain 270 unique envelope shapes into complex evolving patterns that range from snappy transients to half-hour epic journeys.
Features
- Four independent channels with dedicated CV inputs and outputs
- 270 unique vector shapes in 27 banks of 10 shapes each
- Cycle time range from 0.85ms to 30 minutes
- Vector shapes with 3 to 1000 breakpoints for infinite resolution scaling
- Warp and Response deformation in real time
- Complex chaining and looping across up to four channels
- Assignable CV inputs for nearly every parameter
- 18 preset slots with quick save function
- OLED display with real-time visual feedback
- Sustain point with gate input support
- Phase shift and repeat parameters for complex patterns
