Frequently Asked Questions
The Flexshaper's manual voltage mapping is more immediate, but lacks the Shaper Box's complex, preset-saving capabilities. It's a trade-off between hands-on control and deep programmability.
Absolutely, but the gain range is relatively modest; it's better suited for subtle character shaping than aggressive distortion. It's more of a 'tone shaper' than a full-blown overdrive.
Yes, especially in smaller Eurorack cases with limited power budget. Check your PSU's specs to ensure sufficient headroom.
