It might just be me, but it seems like there is some inconsistency in the sound, I imagine because there is modulation that is not reset on trigger? Maybe this is intentional?

Before I say more I should just mention that this thing is great…

What do you think about running it with 2 oscillator voices? With drums it is nice to have the initial smack, but also a decayed sound. If I stretch the decay I loose the punch, but if I tighten the decay I loose the resonance. I could just duplicate the module, but I want to run 4 of these, which would make eight in total, and then the CPU gets a bit crazy.

Hi, The real one also have those flaws. Modulations are reset with trigger. I tried to be as loyal as possible to the original. Now we could update it and give it more power. I find it’s limitation interesting but now it’s on Audulus, let’s upgrade it !

Awesome. I like using it for a dirty kick, but I have to overprocess it. I always like it when I can keep my drums in raw synth format so that when I have a complete track I can do some automation of the modulation.
