New module for Euro rack is released.

beatnic.jp start to handle 2 of Japanese unique module for Euro Rack system. It’s Hikali Pendulum and Hikari Sine.
check out each products, please.

Hikari Sine

Hikari sine is contrle signal generator module. Mode switch will change 3 mode. it’s VCO mode, LFO mode and CV mode.
Parameters:

Mode
  • VCO mode:7 octave (50Hz~6kHz)
  • CV mode:0~7V CV
  • LFO mode:0.5Hz~60Hz(1/100 in VCO mode)
  • QUANTIZE
    this switch will tune cv or VCO frequency in chromatic scale
    Out
    Output all the mode.
    CV
    get the cv controle when VCO mode and LFO mode. it’s 1V/1 Oct scale


    HIKRARI Sine

    3HP
    15mA: +12V
    15mA : -12V
    15mA : 5V
    40mm Depth

    Hikari Pendulum

    HIKARI Pendulum senses the angle of inclination, and outputs it as CV of the two systems of the X ・ Y-direction.
    You can give intuitive operation to your modular Synth system.

    Parameter:
    Tilt switch : ON / OFF
    X-OFFSET KNOB
    Y-OFFSET KNOB
    X OUTPUT : 0.8~6V
    Y OUTPUT : 0.8~6V
    DC IN : 9V

    Matched Pair PNP module with T.C

    This is emittor commoned matched pair PNP transistor module. this module has pair of PNP transistor that have excellent pair characteristics.
    This module is designed to make your experiments easy. Use it on your bread board. You can use it for your original projects, of course
    this module used for beatnic.jp’s products also.
    This pair characteristics are good for VCA or VCF. You can use this module at everywhere of analog synth circuits.
    #503 has Temperature compensation resistor on the module. it’s 1k : 3300ppm/°C.
    if you don’t need Temperature compensation resistor, then check this.
    Or if need NPN matched pair module check out #500 Matched Pair NPN module with T.C or #501 Matched Pair NPN module also. 

    pin structure is designed as pin compatible with Japanese old good pair transistors like 2SA798 or 2SA1349.
    main parameter is just like below.

    this products is provided as a set of 2 modules .
