Nonlinear Circuits Triple Sloth chaotic modulation source. Black panel as standard, but I'm keeping white panels in a rotating stock now :) Please contact me in advance to check availability!

This is a brand-new module with 14-day returns* and a 1-year warranty** included.

• hand built using professional manufacturing techniques; desktop reflow oven
• RohS compliant, lead-free solder
• high quality WQP518MA jacks, rated for 20k cycles
• Alpha Taiwan potentiometers
• Davies 1900h style knobs, Mustard
• genuine, high quality components purchased from Mouser Electronics
• reverse polarity protection and visual indicator of -12v pins
• supplied with 2xM3 Befaco Knurlies and 25cm 10-16pin power cable
• finished with gold and silver Pushernuts on CV inputs and difference rectifier outputs respectively. Diffused red/green LEDs with a decent amount of current limiting, to keep your retinas intact!

Brief description of functionality:

Another chaos-based Eurorack classic from NLC! Three slow orbiting strange attractor circuits with lots of outputs to spread organic drifting joy throughout your patches! The rates and behaviour of each circuit are described in detail below. 

I think the mustard yellow 1900h knobs looks great on the black and gold panels, but I can swap them out for black or light/dark grey upon request.

Full description from the NLC site:

This module contains 3 Sloth chaos circuits. Each one runs at a different rate; Torpor takes approx. 15-30 seconds to travel around 2 strange attractors, Apathy takes 60-90 seconds and Inertia takes 30-40 minutes.

There are no controls for Inertia, it does what it wants.

The pots for Apathy and Torpor do not specifically alter the frequencies, rather the weight of the outputs. Various settings will cause the signals to spend more time traveling around one strange attractor rather than the other.

Apathy and Torpor also have CV inputs. Sometimes the CV signals are injected onto the chaotic signals but depending upon conditions may cause windows of periodicity or voltage jumps. Generally the results are good.

The X, Y & Z outputs for each Sloth are taken from different stages of the circuit and are all different to each other, although Z is simply the inverted version of Y. The three Z outputs are also fed into a Difference Rectifier and the results of this are available from the + and - outputs at the bottom of the panel. The Difference Rectifier outputs are (ignoring diode voltage drops):

out + = VApathy +VInertia - VTorpor If greater than 0, otherwise 0

out - = VApathy +VInertia - VTorpor If less than 0, otherwise 0

*Buyer pays return postage and is liable for loss/damage during transit.

**Usual manufacturer warranty terms e.g. random component failure. Accidental damage, including over voltage, and wear and tear etc. not covered. I want the modules to last and not end up in landfill though, so please contact me for reasonable or possibly even free repairs, depending on the severity of the problem.
