Frequently Asked Questions
It captures the essence of the 909 kick, but lacks the extensive features and tonal range of a full clone. Think of it as a focused, powerful kick engine.
Yes, the CV inputs offer good control over pitch and decay, allowing for interesting rhythmic variations, though modulation depth is limited compared to more advanced modules.
The output drive control can quickly push the signal into distortion, so be prepared to manage your levels carefully to avoid clipping downstream gear.
