Crust Drum Voice - Bastl Instruments

Crust - A Hard-Hitting Drum Voice for your Eurorack setup

Bastl Instruments

Pizza Crust is a hard-hitting drum voice and goes way beyond drum territory. 

It consists of two layers - the NOISE source and dual oscillator TONE generator. 

Hard-hitting drums need a lot of transient attention and CRUST has you covered
with the combination of pitch envelope, layer mixing, FM envelope, and transient
shaper with hard-clipping.

General features:

• Complex drum voice
• Dual oscillator TONE layer with pitch settings
• OCTAVE, DETUNE, pitch SWEEP, SEMI and FINE tune
• 4 TONE shaping algorithms: FM, FM2, RING and DUAL
• NOISE layer with filter and 4 algorithms: WHITE, BIT, CLAP and METALMETALIC
• LAYER fader macro for balancing the TONE and NOISE layer by envelope settings and volume
• ENV knob to lengthed decay to the right (CW of 12 o'clock) and both attack and decay to the left (CCW of 12 o'clock)
• Dedicated CV input for LAYER and ENV
• ENV output
• V/OCT input with calibration to tune the TONE layer
• TIMBRE section with 3 parameters: FILTER, CLIP and SHAPE and a dedicated CV input
• FILTER is lowpass/highpass filter of the NOISE layer
• CLIP is a clipper with transient focus (hard clip) or body bass boost focus (soft clip)
• SHAPE settings for the TONE layer with BODY focus or TRANSIENT focus
• Trigger input
• Sample & Hold for every CV input (can be turned on/off)
• Manual triggers
• Velocity input - when trigger not connected it acts as input for external envelope
• Assignable CTRL knob and CTRL CV option
• Firmware updates via micro USB
• Interchangeable HW with the Pizza Oscillator (just a different panel)
• 3 channels trigger sequencer in 6 hp
• Euclidian  pattern generators and XOX step programing
• Real time manual recording
• 3 routable bi-polar cv inputs
• Ability to save and load patterns
• Programmable ratchets
• Swing
• Flip-able interface 
• Stable clocking with ultra low latency
• Several modules can be chained to share clock and reset
