Notes: Breakout for the ISE-NIN Voice

Extensive outputs, open-ended Functionality

The output section of the ISE-NIN BREAKOUT is a perfect match for the voice. Each waveform for each oscillator has its own independent instrument, as does each envelope and the inverse of envelope 1, each filter and slope, each LFO waveform, noise and low noise, and mix. There's also a dedicated headphone output so you can enjoy ISE-NIN without waking the neighbours. You'd be hard pressed to find as much tonal range, as many distinctive vintage Japanese tones, or as much expandability with as much horsepower as ISE-NIN VOICE and its BREAKOUT.

Notes: Bringing the sound of the legendary Roland Jupiter-8 crashing into Eurorack, the ISE-NIN is Black Corporation's 100% analogue monophonic synth voice, derived from the mega eight-voice ISE-NIN desktop synth.

Supplier's Notes:
(ISE-NIN) VOICE brings the legendary Japanese discrete analogue sound into a compact 100% analogue Eurorack creation. Ideal for combination with an x0x techno rig, the full depth of rich sonic potential and programmability of ISE-NIN can now be patched into new modular concoctions. A full complement of iconic analog oscillators, filters, envelopes, and modulation make this at once a full-featured semi-modular synth on its own, and a powerful addition to any rig with the addition of ISE-NIN BREAKOUT.

Two Oscillators with Deep Modulation

This is a no-compromise compact recreation of a complete voice - lacking only the desktop synth's polyphony. Two oscillators each include multiple waveforms (triangle, ramp, pulse, and square on the VCO-1, with sine and noise replacing triangle and square on VCO-2). Hard sync is available, as is configurable modulation, with dedicated PWM (controlled manually, via LFO, or via envelope 1), and tweakable modulation amounts from both LFO and envelope 1 to VCO-1, VCO-2, or both. The LFO section provides access to waveform (sine, saw, square, random), rate, and delay.

Unmistakable Filter, Dual Envelopes, Musical Control

The unique classic 80s Japanese filter sound is fully embodied here, with highpass filter, lowpass with two slope options (-12 dB, -24 dB), and resonance, all with their own controls. Dual envelopes, each with four stages, are assignable to the filter, VCO modulation (ENV-1), and VCA (ENV-2), with an envelope mod fader. Envelope 1 also sports a polarity switch. As with our desktop synths, musical control is front and center, literally: you'll find dedicated controls for toggling keyboard input to each envelope, a keyboard amount to VCF fader. If you're using ISE-NIN alone as a voice, you'll have access to 1v/octave and gate inputs with glide control.

Unprecedented Patchability

Start with ISE-NIN VOICE (36HP), and you'll already have a deep semi-modular instrument on its own. But add ISE-NIN BREAKOUT (22HP), and you can place every single control under one-to-one voltage control for unmatched patchability and programmability. This is a level of sound possibility that could would normally require investing in several rows of modules; here, they're all readily accessible on one convenient, compact front plate. Not only do you get dedicated inputs for the oscillators, filters, and each separate envelope stage for both of the two envelopes, but there are separate FM inputs to each oscillator and every possible routing of the LFO, envelope, and keyboard. XMOD amount and VCO-2 quantized range each get their own input.
