arbhar heralds a new generation of granular processing in eurorack. Sampled audio can be chopped into tiny grains, scattered, shaped, re-pitched, reversed and layered for an endless range of audio manipulation from seamless frozen tones to mutated acousmatic madness. Featuring a condenser microphone set into the front panel, built in audio analysis for automatic sampling and internal modulation over various parameters; this is truly a granulator like no other. arbhar | ˈɑɾˠuːɾˠ | noun (envelope) a containing structure or layer, a curve joining the successive peaks of a modulated wave QUICKSTART GUIDE Description Size 18HPDepth: 42mm Power +12V: 210mA–12V: 30mA Features Granular processor (Lexer method) Two granular engines available simultaneously:1. controlled by intensity and grain length settings (up to 24 grains)2. externally triggered grains (up to 20 grains) Manual and automatic playhead control for granular textures and time stretched audio playback (Scan/Follow mode) Sampling wavetable oscillator 6 sample buffers (10 second record time each) Built in condenser microphone Dedicated analogue input pre-amplifier Audio onset analysis for automatic capture control LED display for amplitude, length, scan, spray Trigger out Forward/Reverse grain playback probability control Internal random/quantised pitch modulation 1V/OCT cv pitch control Dynamic grain windowing Included 2HP CV expander for additional CV control Description arbhar heralds a new generation of granular processing in eurorack.

Introducing the world for the first time to the Dr Lexer methodology of granular processing. It is as the old saying goes … “Nicht verzagen, Lexer fragen”.
