øchd

The Instruō øchd is one of those modules that immediately makes you wonder: “Why didn’t I get this sooner?”

With eight fully independent analogue LFOs packed into a slim 4HP module, øchd delivers enormous modulation power while saving valuable rack space. From subtle movement to deep, evolving textures, øchd brings an organic and natural flow to any patch.

Developed in collaboration with Ben “DivKid” Wilson, each of øchd’s eight LFO cores runs freely, tuned carefully by ear to provide a perfect spread of modulation rates from fast to extremely slow. Being 100% analogue, the LFOs drift, phase, and breathe together, creating a beautifully fluid modulation source.

Whether in a small portable skiff or a large modular system, øchd adds endless motion and variation without overwhelming your rack. Use it to add subtle life to static patches or as the driving force behind a constantly shifting modular environment.
