UK synth brand Future Sound Systems has made a name for itself with a string of innovative and distinctive Eurorack modules. Now the company is preparing to take a significant step up with its most substantial hardware product to date, Cric.
Cric is an all-analogue, semi-modular synth that makes use of a number of design elements lifted from the company’s Eurorack modules. This includes a three-VCO oscillator section based on the brand’s Recombination Engine, which uses the output of a Scissor operator to combine the outputs of two DNA oscillators. As a result it’s able to create some fairly complex harmonics and unique timbres.
