The ADDAC 220 is a seriously useful module for anyone wanting to extract rhythmic or dynamic information from audio sources. Its analog front-end adds a pleasing character, and the CV options let you modulate other modules based on the input signal’s envelope – perfect for experimental sound design or adding movement to drones and sequences.

Product Description

  • ADDAC 220 Dual Envelope Follower+
  • Eurorack Module
  • 2-channel envelope follower with analogue input stage and digital signal processing
  • Dual mono or stereo operation selectable
  • Per channel gain control with clip LED
  • attack
  • decay
  • envelope gain and offset
  • threshold and response curve (logarithmic to exponential
  • with CV input)
  • Per channel signal input
  • gate output
  • two CV outputs (normal and inverted)
  • Normal and inverted average output (average value) of both channels
  • Power requirement: 70 mA (+12V) / 40 mA (-12V)
  • Width: 10 HP
  • Depth: 45 mm
PROS
  • • Analog input stage provides warmth and musicality to the followed signal.
  • • Flexible response curve (log to exp) offers nuanced envelope shaping.
  • • Dual channel operation allows for complex stereo processing and creative routing.
  • • Average output provides a useful, predictable control signal for modulation.
CONS
  • • 10HP footprint can be restrictive in smaller modular systems.
  • • Limited input headroom; may clip with very hot signals without careful gain staging.
  • • Digital processing, while flexible, introduces a slight latency compared to purely analog followers.

Frequently Asked Questions

The analog stage imparts subtle harmonic distortion and compression, adding a warmth and musicality often missing in purely digital designs – it’s not a dramatic effect, but noticeable.
While the threshold control helps, it's best suited for signals with a reasonable dynamic range; extremely quiet signals might not trigger the envelope reliably.
The latency is minimal and unlikely to be a significant issue for most applications, but very sensitive users might perceive a slight delay compared to purely analog solutions.
