The Répression is a seriously useful little module for anyone building generative or experimental patches. It’s a clever way to introduce logic and modulation into your sound, adding rhythmic complexity without needing a full-blown sequencer. Great for sound designers and those wanting to get really creative with voltage control.
Product Description
- Ritual Electronics Répression
- Logic Module
- Voltage-controlled comparator
- Compares an input signal with the value of the bipolar threshold controller and generates 4 different logic signals from it
- Signal input and threshold CV input
- Outputs for Above (input > threshold)
- Below (input < threshold)
- Equal (trigger when input = threshold) and Bipolar (+/-5V variant of the Above output)
- Current: 53 mA (+12 V) / 26 mA (-12 V)
- Width: 12 HP
- Depth: 35 mm
PROS
- • Excellent voltage comparator for creating complex rhythmic and melodic sequences.
- • The 'Equal' output offers unique triggering possibilities for modulation.
- • Bipolar output provides versatile signal shaping and voltage manipulation.
- • Compact 12HP footprint maximizes space in dense modular setups.
CONS
- • Limited input voltage range requires careful signal scaling.
- • The 'Equal' output can be finicky and require precise threshold adjustment.
- • No attenuators on outputs; signal levels can be challenging to manage.

Frequently Asked Questions
It triggers only when the input signal *precisely* matches the threshold, making it much more sensitive and useful for subtle modulation events than a standard gate.
While not a sequencer itself, the Répression's logic outputs, especially the 'Equal' trigger, can be cleverly used to step through a sequence triggered by a slowly changing voltage source.
It's a bit more advanced than a basic VCO or filter, but understanding comparators is a valuable skill. It’s a rewarding challenge for those ready to dive deeper into logic and voltage processing.
