The East Beast is a semi-modular synthesizer based around “East Coast” synthesis ideologies with a fully analog audio path. Designed in collaboration with Pittsburgh Modular, East Beast further expands upon the amazing Lifeforms series and utilises both an analog oscillator with classic and highly stable wave shapes as well as a PGH resonant multimode filter with the low, band, and high pass modes.
The oscillator and filter can be modulated in a number of ways, with pre-defined routings of the analog envelope straight to the filter and options to route the analog dual LFO to the oscillator’s FM and pulse width inputs for gnarly and thick timbres. As well as its analog parameters, the East Beast features a multimode output for routing a digital multi-modulation source of LFO, envelope, and additional CV control to be patched anywhere throughout the device.
You can easily create sequences with the 32-step sequencer and 13 savable memory points or craft real-time melodies with the onboard arpeggiator, easily Syncable to the main clock.
Time may be defined internally via a tap tempo button or synced externally via the clock input. Further sequencing can be done with a special generator mode in the sequencer or notes may be played externally via the MIDI I/O jacks found in the patch bay.
Being a flexible semi-modular synth, the East Beast can utilise all of its sub-modules to send out voltages to other Eurorack-compatible modules or instruments, and the East Beast itself can be detached from its case and inserted into a standard Eurorack case.
