Musicians, sound designers, producers, or anyone looking for a compact yet powerful analog bass synthesizer with Eurorack compatibility will be thrilled by the Dreadbox Hades Reissue, a rerelease of the original V1 desktop semimodular analog bass synthesizer that can also be used in your Eurorack case (42 HP).
The instrument features a single VCO with two sub oscillators and two waveforms with pulse-width control. The analog 3-pole resonant low-pass filter helps tame harmonics, while the OTA VCA controls levels and a separate OTA distortion circuit provides harmonically rich overdrive. An ADSR envelope and an AR amp envelope help shape circuits over time and are improved from the original version. Other features include a wide-range triangle LFO, a powerful Bass Boost circuit, and 11 patch points to interact with Eurorack gear.
