Overview

The Befaco Kickall is a 6HP analog bass drum voice for Eurorack. It is built around a classic kick patch and also handles percussion and basslines. It suits modular users who want a complete, pitch-tracking kick in very little rack space.

  • Sine core with waveshaping: a sine oscillator feeds a CV-controllable sine-to-square shaper for anything from a round thump to a harder, buzzier tone.
  • Pitch envelope: Time and Bend knobs set the decay and depth of the pitch sweep.
  • Two VCAs: one follows the volume envelope with a Decay slider and CV. The second sets overall level through its own CV input.
  • V/Oct tuning: the Tune input tracks V/Oct, so a sequencer can play pitched patterns beyond the usual kick range.
  • Single trigger: the button or trigger input fires both envelopes together.

The Time and Bend controls cover a wide range, from deep sub-bass drops to short, snappy percussive hits. Both are manual-only. The Shape and Decay parameters accept CV, so the timbre and tail length can change from hit to hit under sequencer or modulation control.

The second VCA's volume input is useful for accents and dynamics. With nothing patched, it defaults to full volume. You can also feed audio into it for basic amplitude modulation, or into the Tune input for FM-style effects. These options take the Kickall beyond plain kick duty into metallic percussion and modulated bass tones.

The Tune knob spans roughly two octaves, from about A0 to B2. Assembled units leave the factory calibrated to 1V/oct, and a trimmer lets you recalibrate. The front panel is heat-treated aluminium. The module was designed by Jaume Olivé and Befaco in Barcelona.
