The PLASMA product series is a revolutionary approach within the realm of overdrive and distortion, as it is a new and previously unexplored method of achieving signal clipping. Instead of using LED circuits, transistors or vacuum tubes to produce overdrive, the PLASMA Drive eurorack transforms your instrument’s live signal into a series of continuous high-voltage discharges within a xenon-filled tube.
In essence – you are playing a bolt of electricity, and the electrical discharges produced by your instrument are instantly converted back into an analog audio signal, producing a quick, responsive, and extremely heavy distortion with TONS of unique character!
The functions of the PLASMA Pedal are complemented with CV control over the level of distortion and a dry/wet mix, making the PLASMA technology blend right into the world of Erica Synths eurorack modules.
OCTAVE TRIGGERS
The PLASMA Drive eurorack introduces tracking oscillators for a new Octave Up & Two-Octave Down function, thus adding even more harmonics to the original signal. Tracking oscillators can be switched on/off manually or via trigger signals.
HIGHER VOLTAGE WITH NO SETBACKS
Similar to PLASMA Pedal, the PLASMA Drive Eurorack boosts audio signal to 3000V and transforms it into a series of continuous high-voltage discharges in a xenon-filled tube. Still powered with a conventional eurorack PSU ribbon cable with the power consumption of around 250mA.
