It offers a broad collection of unique, high-quality synth voices, each with extensive, customisable parameters. These parameters can be directly controlled or modulated through assignable internal and external sources.

Certain per-voice parameters support audio-rate modulation, including FM, sync, and DSP. Each voice also supports up to four-voice chords, external-triggered envelopes, multiple LFOs, and dual audio outputs for comprehensive desktop-like synth functionality.

Voices include a multi dimensional wavetable oscillator based on the original MCO, a complex additive synthesis engine, a multi mode ’JP’ type digi-synth, a lush virtual analog implementation, a fully featured vocoder, a bass synth for both kicks and sub sonic tones and finally a rebirth and porting of our discontinued SID GUTs chip voice.

Each voice includes factory presets as well as the ability to store and recall user presets. All state is preserved across power cycles.

The MCO Mk II is designed to be familiar, quick and easy to use with a high resolution colour display and a rich visual user interface.

A USB-C connection allows for easy firmware updates, user wavetables upload and device config backup and restore. Axon expander modules are also supported to increase CV control options.

The voltage controlled filter is based around the analog FatkeysTM SSI2144 filter chip, an updated version of the SSM2044 4-pole low-pass filter used in numerous classic synthesizer designs. The filter design features a resonance path external to the 4 low-pass cores of the SSI2144. This allows resonance to be optionally added to the low-pass response without loss of bass. The filter output is smoothly managed by a custom- designed drive circuit that allows an adjustable amount of punch to be added to the sound.Loki provides an attack/release envelope generator and VCA circuit designed for low-noise operation. The envelope generator has a control input that allows the envelope to track against a modulation source, allowing for velocity/ aftertouch control etc. or more complex envelope shapes.

The second oscillator frequency, filter cutoff and other main controls are provided with larger knobs for live performance. 16 patch connections are provided which are organised by sub-module as an easy cue to their function. The sockets are located towards the bottom of each sub-module to keep cables away from the controls. Loki is simple enough to be patched live, but with enough connections to allow it to be used live or in the studio with a sequencer.

Features

Oscillator one: saw, and pulse outputs, glide, PWM, FM, sub-oscillator

Oscillator two: saw and triangle outputs, LFO, hard-sync, sync to gate

Filter: SSI2144 based design, two modulation inputs, aux input, drive

The MetaModule comes with hundreds of built-in modules from 4ms Company, Befaco, HetrickCV, NonlinearCircuits, and Scanner Darkly, plus clones of popular classics such as the Mutable Instruments eurorack modules, fun physical modeling algorithms, and lots of handy utilities, with the ability to add hundreds more via plugins.

All of the included modules are also available on the computer using the free program VCV Rack. Whether you make patches on VCV Rack and transfer them to the MetaModule, or if you just create patches directly on the MetaModule, there are plenty of creative modules to inspire new ways to make music.

MetaModule Plugins
If the 160+ built-in modules aren’t enough, you can load more modules as plugins. Already there are over 200 modules in third-party plugins from Bogaudio, Valley, ChowDSP, NANO Modular, and the list is growing. We have an SDK available to make it easy for VCV Rack plugin developers to convert their plugin to a MetaModule plugin. Our licensing terms are non-restrictive: developers are welcome to distribute their plugin in any way they wish, commercially or not.

Mapping Knobs and Jacks
The MetaModule has 12 knobs that can be mapped to virtual knobs. Each knob can be mapped to up eight virtual knobs, and each mapping can have a different range and offset. You also can save a group of mappings as a Knob Set and switch between Knob Sets with the encoder. You also can map the 8 inputs and 8 outputs to virtual module jacks. Also, the MetaModule is a USB MIDI host, so you also can map MIDI CC, note, gate, and other parameters to knobs and jacks.

Expanders
There are lots of ways to customize your MetaModule. A Wifi expander allows you to wirelessly transfer patches from your computer. Add eight more knobs with the Knob expander, or buttons with the Button expander. A CV/Audio expander adds more high-resolution inputs and outputs, and the Gate In/Out expander adds not only gate jacks but also TRS MIDI and I2C. All expanders for MetaModule will be available later in 2024.

Under the Hood
There are six CV/Audio inputs, two gate inputs, and six CV/Audio outputs. The CV/Audio jacks are all 24-bit, 48kHz DC-coupled, -10V to +10V. A USB-C jack accepts MIDI devices and thumb drives. Patches and plugins can be loaded via a USB drive or microSD Card, and internal flash memory lets you save patches you always want to come back to.
The processor is more advanced than anything 4ms has used in the past, and is among the most powerful processors found in Eurorack. Startup time and latency are blazingly fast.

The Atlantix is the highly-anticipated successor to the Intellijel Atlantis which was originally inspired by the classic Roland SH-101—one of our all-time favorite synthesizers. Despite the SH-101’s seemingly limited architecture, it produces various creative and musically useful sounds that have inspired generations of artists and countless hits. The Atlantix is just as immediate for dialing in beautifully rich bass and lead sounds but a thoughtful design, numerous additional features, and flexible patching options open up a massive amount of new sonic territory to explore.

The Atlantix is an analog, complete subtractive synthesizer voice condensed into a single 42HP module. Its carefully conceived architecture and layout facilitate a lot of flexibility and hands-on control. It gives you all the building blocks needed to start making sounds in Eurorack: VCOs, VCF, VCA, S&H, Noise, and an Envelope but in a way that allows plenty of experimentation.

Features

• Cascaded 4-Pole multimode filter with LP2, BP2, LP4, BP4, HP4, and Phaser modes
• Two Triangle Core VCOs
• VCO A: Thru-Zero FM with INDEX and PWM, Hard/Soft Sync, Octave switch
• VCO B: Linear FM, LFO/VCO switch, Hard Sync, Octave switch
• Suboscillator with three modes spanning two octaves
• White and Pink noise sources
• Six-channel mixer comprising VCO A Waveforms, Sub, Noise, and two Aux inputs
• Aux inputs have switched normals with sources from VCO A and B for quick paraphonic play without patching
• Mixer Aux 2 can be routed post-VCF / pre-VCA
• Mod X and Y buses allow for quick modulation routing of VCO B, S&H, Noise, and feedback sources without patching
• Both Mod X and Y buses have polarity and level-shifting switches
• Analog ADSR envelope with three time ranges, manual gate, and level (velocity) input
• Patchable Sample and Hold modulation source
• Asymmetric and symmetric output distortion modes
• 20 Sliders, 4 Knobs, 27 toggles, and 2 Rotary switches for expressive hands-on control
• 32 Jacks for creative and complex patching options
• 16 additional jacks with the optional Atlx expander

Oscillators — Advanced TZFM and Flexible Mixer
The Atlantix uses two triangle core voltage controlled oscillators (VCO) which respond in a musically pleasing way to frequency modulation. The Atlantix primary VCO (VCO A) is capable of thru-zero frequency modulation and has a dedicated amplifier for controlling FM depth (FM INDEX). The modulation oscillator (VCO B) can be used as either an LFO or VCO. The highly flexible architecture allows you to route VCO B as a modulation source or stack it as a secondary VCO all by the flick of a switch or slider. VCO B also has a bonus “spike” waveform output which is a square wave with fixed HPF, similar to the Buchla Easel. Both oscillators track very precisely over eight or more octaves.

In the mixer section, you can adjust the balance of the primary oscillator’s waveforms, sub-oscillator noise, and two auxiliary inputs that are normalled to additional VCO A waveforms or VCO B waveforms. The auxiliary inputs also allow you to patch other external signals into the mix.

The second Auxiliary input has a switch that allows you to route the source between the mixer sum or directly into the VCA (post-VCF). The latter is a way to pass an unfiltered fundamental signal to the final VCA stage and then blend it with filtered audio from the VCF. This draws inspiration from the architecture of the CS-80 where a sine wave is mixed with the filtered audio to make glassy tones with some added harmonics.

Multimode Filter — From drips to growls
The filter section (VCF) is a discrete cascaded 4-pole multimode filter with lowpass, bandpass, highpass, and phaser (multi-notch) modes. The filter can self-oscillate which produces a very clean sine wave that also tracks 1V/Oct. The VCF has three frequency modulation sources, two of which are normalled to the external pitch and envelope and have switches for polarity.

Add Atlx for dedicated outputs from each mode.

Envelope — A classic ADSR
The envelope section is an analog ADSR with three timing ranges: slow, medium, and fast. It can be gated externally or via a manual gate button located in the center of the panel. The ADSR is routed through a VCA which can be used for level or velocity control.

Modulation — Random, Feedback, and built-in routing
Two eight-position rotary switches allow you to select from eight different modulation sources and route them to outputs MOD X and MOD Y. Each switch also has a polarity control and an option to level shift between unipolar and bipolar operation. MOD X is normalled to VCO A frequency modulation and MOD Y is normalled to VCF frequency modulation. The dedicated outputs allow for further creative modulation patching.

Four of the Input jacks have normal switches to change your patch without the need for cables.

The analog Sample and Hold (S&H) circuit is normalled to the white noise source and can be clocked by VCO B, an external clock source, or via the gate input for per-note synced randomization.

Drive and Distortion
The output VCA can be routed into two different distortion circuits which allow for harmonically richer and more aggressive tones while also boosting signal levels.

Atlx — Optional Expander w/ Ring Mod
The Atlx expander provides 16 additional jacks to the Atlantix, including dedicated waveform outputs for A and B oscillators, filter outputs, and a ring modulator. Atlx adds many new possibilities for self-patching, advanced routing, and connections to other modules.
