Erica Synths Fusion VCF V2

With this module you'll get an ultimately deep sounding VCF with a unique character. Ingenious resonance volume compensation circuit and filter slope selection makes it ideal for live performances. Bonus feature – 3 input mixer with dedicated mixer output. Try patching the MIX OUT into one of the mixer inputs, increase the input level until the mixer goes into self-oscillation and use the filter to alter the drone, you have! The Fusion VCF is an instrument on it’s own!

All Fusion modules by default are configured to work with regular eurorack PSU.

Due to the fact that cold tube heaters have lower resistance, Fusion modules have significant power consumption peak at startup, when power consumption almost doubles for 1-2 seconds. This is not a problem with linear PSUs that have power inertia, but may cause switching PSU internal protection turn off the power supply. Please make sure your PSU has some headroom before installing multiple Fusion modules.

The Erica Synths Fusion series modules are designed combining vacuum tubes and semiconductors therefore they bring the warm, powerful sound and overdrive possibilities of vacuum tubes into your modular system. Erica Fusion series consists of a range of modules used in sound shaping circuit – VCO, Mixer, a real Ringmodulator using audio transformers and germanium diode ring, VCF, VCA and Analogue Delay/Flanger.

Would I build a setup around valve modules? I was expecting to say no, but having spent time with the Fusion setup I’m surprised to say I actually would. It’s distinctive, it’s versatile, but more importantly it’s fun. Music has always been about philosophies and aesthetic choices; Erica understand that and offer something fantastically different with the Fusion series. These are not sterile, surgical tools. Far from it. And they’re all the better for that. - Attack Magazine

Erica Synths

Erica Synths team of visionaries, engineers and musicians have been working hard to bring you modules and instruments that will set your modular system apart from mass in terms of how it sounds, looks and functions. Check them out and find what you are missing!

Modules

Black Series

Erica Black series are high-end modules with unique functionality. Only the highest quality components are used and all inputs and outputs are protected against undesired overvoltage. When designing the Black Series, we put design and usability first. Big knobs are assigned to functions that make difference in sound. The Erica Black series are a range of modules that together make an entire synthesizer.

Fusion Series

Erica Synths Fusion series modules are designed combining  vacuum tubes and semiconductors therefore they bring warm, powerful sound and crazy overdrive possibilities of vacuum tubes into your modular system. Erica Fusion series consist of whole range of modules used in sound generation and shaping circuit – Suboscillator, Mixer, Ringmodulator, VCF, VCA and Analogue Delay/Chorus.

Pico Series

With Pico Series we challenged ourselves – can we make ANY superior functionality synth module 3HP wide and affordable? Yes, we can!

DIY Series

DIY Polivoks-inspired system is skiff friendly and adapted for modular functionality great sounding 84HP two-VCO modular-system with 53 patch points that go well beyond classical monosynths. Key modules are Polivoks-inspired, but this is not just a Polivoks clone. We have introduced numerous innovative solutions in each module to make it more versatile and to expand the functionality of the entire system.

Graphic Series

Erica Synths Graphic series challenges the traditional way how modular synths are operated – using encoders you can literary draw audio waves, advanced envelopes and filter curves on the LCD screen and listen to the result straight away. All settings can be saved in the internal memory and instantly recalled during live performances or next morning after the night, you spent with designing that unique patch. All Graphic Series modules firmware is upgradable via USB cable, and we have designed a web interface to perform upgrades.

Basic Series

These are great, function rich modules to control your modular system, interface it with other musical instruments to release its full potential.

Drum Series

Since Pico Drums is one of bestsellers in Erica Synths range, we decided to inflate it to the Drum System – a set of 15 modules to put together one of the most advanced techno/dnb/industrial music performance system.
