The Black Code Source is a surprisingly capable noise generator for those diving into modular synthesis. It's fantastic for adding unpredictable textures and rhythmic elements to your patches, especially if you're already in the Erica Synths ecosystem or plan to expand with the Expander. This module shines for experimental sound design and generative music.
