Magerit released Metro
Magerit released Metro, a new drum synthesizer and a rhythmic sequencer module for eurorack.
Who has never seen someone playing a drum set made of plastics and tubes in the subway? It’s amazing to see how a paint can and some other stuff can produce such interesting tones and rhythms. Inspired by the idea of generating a “percussive whole”, we present the Magerit Metro. It is a drum synthesizer and a rhythmic sequencer, everything packed in a 13HP-width Eurorack module. Let’s have a look at all the features included in METRO.
We have developed 11 unique algorithms: 3 bass drums, 2 snares, 2 tom-toms, 2 cymbals, a string generator and hand claps one. Each model allows you to modify its parameters at ease. In addition, you can adjust the volume and pan of each instrument individually. And if this wasn’t enough, these settings can be stored. So, you won’t lose those nice tones once you turn off your Eurorack system.
The module has 6 slots (or channels). On each one you can load one of the instruments and generate different rhythms. The Euclidean sequencer allows you to play with mathematical proportions and generate groundbreaking patterns. In addition, a second kind of sequencer is included: a step sequencer. Both are fully configurable, (number of steps, ratios…)
