Nocturne: Analog Synth Module

A 16HP Eurorack voice built around a discrete ladder filter, tuned by ear and shipped with a patch book.

Nocturne: Analog Synth Module

Nocturne started as a one-off for a friend who wanted a filter that behaved like his old modular system. It ended up as a complete voice: two oscillators with through-zero FM, a discrete transistor ladder filter, and an envelope that can be as slow as 40 seconds.

There is no screen and no menu. Every function has a knob, and the normalization is printed on the panel in a way that actually reads at arm's length. CV inputs accept -10V to +10V.

The first run is 300 units, hand-assembled in Basel with through-hole components where it matters.
