4 hours ago - 4 hours ago
A 4-channel gesture recorder and CV playback module designed to capture the movement of a knob and reproduce it as a precise, repeatable control voltage. By recording the exact motion of the Record Knob, Kappa lets you turn live, expressive gestures into modulation sources for filters, VCAs, oscillators, or any CV-controlled parameter in your system. Even after powering down, Kappa retains all four recordings in non-volatile memory, so your gestures are always ready when you turn the module back on. Two playback modes, Retrigger and Chopping, give you precise control over how an external clock reshapes your recordings, stretching them to match tempo or chopping them into rhythmic, resynced fragments. This makes Kappa a reliable gesture-to-CV source for both studio and live performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Patcher aims to be the most comprehensive manager and database for modular gear, providing free access to public data. The project is open-source and available to everyone for free.

If you notice a missing module, you can add it yourself using the "Submit New Module" button located in the modules section at the top right of the page.

If panel images are missing for a module, you can upload them directly via the module’s detail page. Just navigate to the module page, and you’ll find the option to add images there.

Yes, partially. Export your rack as JSON from ModularGrid (requires a Unicorn account), then in the rack creator toggle "Import from ModularGrid" and upload that file. We'll match as many modules as possible and show you a preview split into confident, likely, ambiguous, and unmatched matches - you can resolve ambiguous ones manually before finishing the import. ModularGrid does not officially support this integration, so some modules may not match; you can always add those manually.

Use blank modules! Right-click on any module in your rack and select "Replace with blank" to create empty space. Blanks are available in all common sizes (1-20 HP for Eurorack, 1-26 HP for Intellijel). You can also add blank modules directly from the module browser - just search for "blank".
