Manifold Research Centre Yodo: Three Dimensions of Saturation

Yodo is far more than a simple distortion module; it is a surgical tool for sonic sculpting. The module splits incoming audio into three independent frequency bands: Low, Mid, and High. Each band features its own dedicated distortion circuit and an internal VCA, allowing you to control the dynamics and the amount of "grit" for each specific range. This design solves the common issue of losing low-end clarity during distortion; for instance, you can keep your sub-bass clean while crushing the mid-range and highs. With full CV control over the levels of each band, Yodo is perfect for creating complex, evolving timbres and powerful, industrial-tinged percussion.

Key Features:

• Multiband Architecture: Independent processing of Low, Mid, and High frequency ranges.

   

   

• Integrated VCA Per Band: Each channel doubles as a VCA for dynamic, rhythmic gating of distorted textures.

   

   

• Surgical Distortion: Apply saturation precisely where it's needed without mudding up the signal.

• Voltage Controlled Precision: Dedicated CV inputs for external modulation of each band’s volume.

   

   

• Space Efficient: Packs massive processing power into a compact 12HP format.

Technical Specifications:
