Larix Elektro Dual Undula Oscillator is a new advanced synth voice for Eurorack powered by a complex dual oscillator.
At SynthFest France 2023, I reported for the first time about the young company Larix Elektro from France. Raphael Panis, the developer, has released many modules since then. For Superbooth 24, a new quad percussive synth voice was introduced.
His latest module is a powerful synth voice and dual complex oscillator and probably the young developer’s biggest project to date. Welcome the Dual Undula Oscillator.
Larix Elektro Dual Undula Oscillator
Dual Unduala Oscillator is a new analog dual complex oscillator and full synth voice for Eurorack. Due to the many internal patching options, you can use it as both.
The core consists of two sine wave oscillators (VCO), each with control over the coarse, fine-tune and a dedicated 1V/oct input. Plus, you can tweak the fine tune over CV.
Each of these also contains a CV-controllable wave folder. Since each sine oscillator also has an audio input, this section can also be used as a filter.
Between the two sine oscillator blocks there are also two versatile bi-polar VCAs, one for each oscillator. On one side, they can act as lowres and two ring modulators.
On the other, they also offer a mid-side converter functionality where VCA 1 has left/mid and VCA 2 right/side settings. A great feature for creating stereo patches with stereo effects.
Then, you can find built-in modulation in the from of a two-wave LFO and an attack-decay envelope. That’s a manageable amount of modulation but making the Larix Elektro Dual Undula Oscillator to the complete synth voice.
Further, the module gives you plenty of access points on the back to modify the routing or add more I/O do it. For example, you can add the Controle Mult module and add new functionality to it. According to developer, all critical capacitors are through Holes, to allows easy modifications.
The module also offers CV control over all features. The division into feature blocks and plenty of inputs and outputs make the Unduale Oscillator more to a multi-function tool. It can be a full synth voice, a dual complex oscillator, a dual filter, or even a MS processor.
First Impression
At first glance, an exciting dual oscillator. The slightly different structure compared to other complex oscillators or synth voices makes the module intruiging to explore.
Larix Elektro Dual Undula Oscillator is available now for 450€.
