Cre8audio is the brand behind two semi-modular desktop synths, West Pest and East Beast, developed in partnership with Pittsburgh Modular. Today, the company releases two new products that should pair nicely with that duo: Boom Chick, an Eurorack-friendly analogue drum machine, and Assembler, an analogue mixer designed for synths.
Built around Pittsburgh Modular’s newly-designed analogue drum circuits, Boom Chick has five voices controlled via its knob-per-function interface. The Kick voice runs a specialized sine-wave oscillator through a dedicated overdrive circuit, while the Snare voice offers tweakable tone and a noise generator, capable of producing both authentic-sounding snares and more synthetic creations.
