Modbap Modular Hue Audio Color Processor Eurorack Module
Modbap Modular Hue Audio Color Processor Eurorack Module Reviews
In keeping with Modbap Modular’s boom-bap ethos, the Hue Audio Color Processor is a 6HP module that brings brilliant texturization tools to your Eurorack sound. With a suite of five high-quality options, this multi-FX module arms everything from drums to leads with distinctive character, from the aggressive and distorted to the lush and abstracted. Choose from Drive, Filter, Tape Saturation, LoFi, and Compressor FX to paint your sound with deep, vibrant color. The audio signal path follows that order, and the DJ-inspired panel arrangement encourages exploration and on-the-fly modulation; or integrate Hue into your system with its four CV inputs, generating pulsing, rhythmic, or frenzied implementations of these rich texturizing tools. Synthesists at Sweetwater agree that Hue is a robust source of aural exploration, and Modbap’s unique approach to Eurorack synthesis is a welcome way to shake up your sound.
Great idea, bad daisies
I have had to send back and have the module replaced twice. There is a delay between when you move the knob and when it responds on all knobs. I am an experienced eurorack synthesist. If this is the case on three separate units that means it is a pervasive problem with the module. Getting this resolved has been a giant headache. I love my per4mer but i recommend avoiding this module.
Cool module, falls slightly short of expectations
I was mostly looking forward to the sample rate/bit depth reduction to use on drums. I was hoping to add just a slight reduction, like 30-40khz. But it seems to start at around 11khz when you turn the lofi knob, which is pretty much unusable for a drum master effect (I'm not trying to make Commodore 64 music lol). But the lofi setting does sound cool on my Osiris module, especially with the filter since its post-filter. Otherwise, the other settings sound great on my drums. The tiny compressor knob is surprisingly usable and sounds dope.
