Makrophonie Triple Preamp Eurorack Module

XOXO Modular Makrophonie: Triple-Channel Sonic Exploration

Makrophonie is the definitive tool for synthesists looking to bridge the gap between acoustic textures and modular synthesis. This 6HP module features three independent, high-gain preamplifiers specifically voiced for contact microphones, piezo pickups, and line-level signals. Unlike standard utility preamps, Makrophonie offers a musical analog saturation when pushed, allowing you to add harmonic warmth or aggressive grit to external sources. With an intelligent normalization scheme that passes the first input down the chain, it excels at parallel processing—allowing you to send one source to three different filters or effects with unique gain stages.

Key Features:

• Triple High-Gain Path: Three discrete amplifiers providing ample gain for even the quietest sources.

• High-Impedance (Hi-Z) Inputs: Optimized for the frequency response and clarity of piezo-electric transducers.

• Creative Saturation: Smooth analog clipping adds character to drums, vocals, or found-sound recordings.

• Cascaded Normalization: Input 1 normals to Input 2 and 3, ideal for multi-band processing and layering.

• Skiff-Friendly Design: Ultra-slim profile makes it perfect for portable performance cases.

Technical Specifications:

• Width: 6HP

• Depth: 25mm

• Power Draw: +12V: 30mA, -12V: 30mA
