Andrew from 20CC takes us on a tour of the TXX-1 Spectron, a dual-voice module based on samples from classic recording-based instruments like the Mellotron and Optigan.
“The 20CC TXX-1 Spectron is a Eurorack format dual oscillator inspired by vintage analog multisampling instruments such as the Mellotron, Chamberlin, and Optigan. Spectron uses a unique combination of synthesis and sampling techniques to bring the rich, warbly sounds of these classic instruments into Eurorack for the first time, while also offering new possibilities to manipulate, warp, and mangle them.”

The Biggest Foot …serves as a controller interface that links two 2007 Wii Balance Board units, repurposing consumer hardware for modern electronic music applications.
The Miclon is a faithful reproduction of the elusive Olitronik Micrón, a full-voice module that moves the design forward.
We also see some cleverly hacked modules playing pong, accessible controller use, and more.
