Manufacturer Description:
The DSM03 Feedback Module is Dave Smith’s third offering for modular
synths. At the heart of this unique module is a tuned feedback line for
sound mangling; a newly-designed, resonant, low-pass filter for tone
shaping; and a triggerable noise source for Karplus-Strong-type plucked
string synthesis. Tuned feedback has been a part of the Dave Smith tonal
palette since the ground-breaking Evolver, and is also a key
sound-shaping component of the Pro 2 and Prophet 12 synths.
Plug It In and Tweak It
The DSM03 is a 10HP wide, standard Eurorack-format device with
interconnections made using 3.5 mm phone jacks. A set of inputs allow
individual voltage control of feedback amount, tuning, low-pass filter
frequency, and filter resonance. The module provides one audio input and
one audio output as well as an audio trigger input for the noise
source.
New Filter Design
The 4-pole, resonant, lowpass filter is a new digital design, based
partially on classic analog filters of the past. It features
over-sampling and numerous refinements to the signal path, which is
24-bit, 96 kHz resolution for outstanding audio fidelity. It’s a
great-sounding design that works well both in the feedback context and
as a stand-alone tone-shaping tool.
Creative Possibilities Abound
So if you’re looking for something esoteric, but still fundamental to
the Dave Smith sound, add this secret weapon to your modular arsenal.
From Karplus-Strong synthesis to metallic, industrial grit, the creative
possibilities are wide open.
