We’ve been silently working on a few solutions for new/diferent expression aproaches, from a whole range of ideas we came out with 5, compact, straight forward modules that we’re very happy with!
Here’s the newcomers to our ADDAC300 Expressive Controls Series,
From left to right: ADDAC300 Power Starvation, ADDAC301 Floor Control, ADDAC301B Dual Expression Attenuator, ADDAC301C Dual Sustain Switcher, ADDAC303 Muscle Sensing

ADDAC300 Power Starvation

http://www.addacsystem.com/product/adda ... s/addac300
Power starvation is the first hack that any "DIY'er" learn, it's also one of the hacks that can generate some of the most interesting sonic effects in circuit bending.
We thought of bringing this principle to the modular world, plug any module of your choice through it and independently tune it's ± power.
This will have most interesting effects in analog modules: filters, delays, mixers... They can either go silent or start screaming at your ears, going berserk with the lack of current to behave normally, making them cough, choke, go spastic... Something like a safelly induced heart attack...
Two IDC connectors on the back allow for independently plug 2 modules of your choice.
Bypass switches for easy operation.
The trimmers allow for setting a minimum voltage plateau, most modules will shut down from 3 to 10v these trimmers allow to set them at the right sweet spot and enjoy the full range of the pot for the power starving.
Specs: Width: 4 HP, Depth: 4 cm, Max current: 5mA
, Bus Board Cable: 8 × 2 IDC (Doepfer style) connector
Price: 70,00 € (ETA 1 Month)

ADDAC301 Floor Control

http://www.addacsystem.com/product/adda ... s/addac301
While we were working on our new VC Stompboxes we tested several expression pedals and it became clear to us that most often, while playing a modular system, our hands are busy, cables around our neck, some between our teeth and still our feet are normally free.
It's also kinda normal to have an expression pedal lying around somewhere so we thought of bringing these back, clean up the dust and put them to good use.
This module allows the connection of any standard expression and sustain pedal.
The expression pedal action can be fine tunned with Range and Offset knobs.
Range defines the voltage range (-10v, +10v).
Offset transposes the range by (-5v, +5v).
Two leds, plus and minus, monitor the CV Output
Positive and inverted output jacks.
The sustain pedal action will generate a gate signal on the gate output.
One led monitors this output.
Also features a bus board +5v Adaptor, this will be able to provide +5v to any bus board.
This feature can be removed through a jumper on the back of the module.
Specs: Width: 4 HP, Depth: 4 cm, Max current: 20mA
, Bus Board Cable: 8 × 2 IDC (Doepfer style) connector
Price: 70,00 € (already available)

ADDAC301B Dual Expression Attenuator

http://www.addacsystem.com/product/adda ... /addac301b
Passive dual expression pedal attenuator.
Plug any CV or audio source through it and control it's amplitude through any standard expression pedal.
Invert switch for inverting the expression pedal action.
Specs: Passive Module, Width: 4 HP, Depth: 3 cm
Price: 65,00 € (already available)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ADDAC301C Dual Sustain Switcher

http://www.addacsystem.com/product/adda ... /addac301c
Passive dual sustain pedal switcher.
Plug any CV or audio source through it and control it's state (on / off) through any standard sustain pedal.
Specs: Passive Module, Width: 4 HP, Depth: 3 cm
Price: 60,00 € (already available)

ADDAC303 Muscle Sensing

http://www.addacsystem.com/product/adda ... s/addac303
This module introduces a totally new interaction principle, using electrodes to sense body muscles tension.
You can stick them to your arm and clench your fist, to your leg and tap your tempo, to your band bass player or drummer... you name it.
Features:
Gain knob adjusts the output's voltage range (±10V)
Offset adjusts initial range position (±10V)
Smooth switch allows hard and soft smoothing of the raw sensor output.
Positive and inverted CV Outputs
Comparator Gate out with Threshold knob
Module ships with electrodes.
Specs: Width: 4 HP, Depth: 4 cm, Max current: 60mA
, Bus Board Cable: 8 × 2 IDC (Doepfer style) connector
Price:180,00 € (ETA 1 Month)
All the best,
