electro-acoustic research model 13 mini: vactrol low pass gate
price : $159.00
the m13 mini vactrol lpg is a 4hp adaptation of the plan b model 13 timbral gate. it is currently available as a pre-assembled module with a metalphoto front panel. the m13 mini is a faithful reproduction of the legendary buchla 292 low pass gate with
additional circuitry to improve the bleed associated with lpgs in the amplified eurorack environment. unlike the original timbral gate, the mini has only two operating modes - low pass and combo (vca and low pass mode combined), with the vca mode omitted.
the m13 mini was originally produced as a one-off for the toolbox modular synthesizer used by danny carey on tool performances. this release uses a specific type of vactrol and is therefore limited due to the inability to find them in quantity.
