Superbooth 2024 Xaoc Devices released Berlin

Xaoc Devices released Berlin, a compact VCO that offers square and saw waves with hard sync, FM input, and octave switching. What sets Berlin apart is the Leibniz Binary Subsystem interface, which includes LBZ out and LBZ in. The front panel LBZ LINK button and its corresponding gate input allow users to switch between the default saw wave and a signal passed through any Leibniz module connected to Berlin. When combined with Xaoc Devices Jena for wave processing, Berlin transforms into a vintage-style wavetable oscillator with a penchant for experimental sounds due to its open, hackable nature.

Similar to classic PPG Wave and Fairlight CMI synths, Berlin employs a variable sample rate of an extremely wide range internal clock. This unique feature ensures that the internal square and saw waves exhibit no aliasing effect, with a frequency range spanning from 30 seconds in LFO mode up to 250 kHz, and a clock reaching an astounding 20 MHz. With voltage control over all parameters, Berlin is a highly versatile module capable of creating a significantly diverse palette of unusual waveforms.

Features

  • Wide-range VCO with LFO mode (over 20 octaves of tracking)
  • Leibniz Binary Subsystem interface
  • Extremely wide-range clock source
  • Manual and voltage control over all parameters (including octave switching and LBZ LINK!)
  • Simultaneous Square and Saw/Leibniz wave outputs
  • Extensive waveshaping potential when combined with Xaoc Devices Leibniz Subsystem
