Ladik EQ-5 / E-110 5-Band EQ Demo Video by @DivKid

DivKid's latest video shows you all the details of the Ladik EQ-5 / E-110 5-Band Equalizer... Enjoy!

Video: LADIK - EQ-5 / E-110 5-Band EQ

"A dirty cheap (picked it up for £32, new they are less than £50) 5 band EQ from LADIK. The module has +/- 12dB EQ at 12.8kHz, 3.2kHz, 800Hz, 200Hz and 50Hz. Really nice to have some proper EQ shaping in my set up.

Ladik Eurorack Synare 3-Clone Announced

Yesss... I was kinda waiting for some manufacturer to release a Synare 3-clone in Eurorack format, and now Czech company Ladik finally did it.
I already knew that they were making great sounding non-Eurorack Synare clones, but this one is just
perfect...

Ladik Synare 1,2 and VCF

The demo isn't showing it's full potential IMHO, but already convincing enough for me

The complete set contains 3 modules:
C-510 "Synare 1" - trigger input, envelopes, vca (4HP)
O-510 "Synare 2" - 2x oscillator, noise source, LFO (4HP)
F-510 "Synare VCF" - filter with 4 outputs and +CV and -CV inputs (8HP)

Quality components, silver coated PCBs, laser marked panel.
Width: 8+4+4=16TE/ 16HP.
Depth: max. 55mm /2,2"
Current: 40mA total
Power ribbon cables (3x) included (handy 20cm, 16/10pin).

Price: $286.28 - via eBay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/ladik_eu/m.html?item=251317015062&pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Pro_Audio_Synthesisers_CV&hash=item3a83a95216&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

F-510 "Synare VCF" - filter with 4 outputs and +CV and -CV inputs (8HP)
Triggered by M-210 MIDI to trig interface (12 trig outputs or 11 trigs + 1 accent output)
Controlled by Arturia Beatstep (via MIDI)"

New Ladik Modules

Ladik J-010 XY Joystick module

Another new video from Ladik popped up on YouTube today.
I'm not exactly sure why, but there is some kind of charm about these kind of small east-European synthesizer companies IMO and finally i have a little bit more info about this Czechoslovakian manufacturer.

Like a site for example, find them now at http://ladik.eu/ and have a look at their other products, the Synare 3 clone for example looks and sounds pretty amazing.
I haven't had contact with the owner (yet), but i'm quite interested to know how this all started and where this company is heading to...
I would love to record an interview-session with them for an upcoming interview-series for my blog next winter. (I have a few more people on my list, including Dieter Doepfer himself)

Lakik J-011 J-Math module

Their latest video shows two of their new products;
The J-010, an industry standard Joystick CV controller for Eurorack, with two outputs with adjustable settings for range and offset for both X and Y directions.
and the J-011, The J-Math, a small 2-input Maths module that perfoms basic mathemetical funtions as X+Y, X-Y, -X-Y etc...
It works with control voltages and i assume it will do something interesting with audio too, but the info is not on the site yet.
Find more info about all their products at http://ladik.eu/.

Modular Checker by Ladik

Now here's an interesting looking Eurorack test-tool...

Ladik (from the Czech Republic) has now produced a nice device that you can plug into any mini-jack-socket to check if there is any voltage output (positive and negative)

They look quite robust and they are made out of a Quality REAN (Neutrik) connector and has a bright bi-colored LCD (positive = red, negative = green) that starts glowing if it registers a signal of approx 2 Volts.

He hasn't listed them on eBay yet, but expect to find these soon HERE

"Is an signal in this hole?

Just checks if in a madular jack is positive or negative voltage over 2 volts."

Ladik M-011 Modular Voltage-meter Module for Eurorack

Now that looks interesting;
If you (just like me) can't get enough of blinking lights in your modular, this might be something for you.

On eBay this Bipolar voltmeter module called Ladik M-011 popped up.
It's a very basic analog VU-meter for modular synthesizers with 3 switchable ranges (front panel switch): -2 to +2V, -4 to +4V, -8 to +8V, and a zero-point in the middle.

4 x Ladik M-011 Modular Voltage-meter

It has 4 LEDs/steps for positive and 4 LEDs/steps for negative voltage in the selected ranges and it seems very
handy for checking CV or audio output levels between modules.
There's also an LED for the centrepoint/zero input.

For example - slow LFO will light up alternating bar up and down (depends of waveshape),
symmetric VCO output will light symmetric bars (alternating so fast for eye) which appears like
continuous light in positive and negative range.
Not suitable for exact measuring of CV (tuning check or so). Step spacing is too big for this.
All three panel jacks are parallel (can be used as one to two multiple).
Quality England connectors (not cheapo China), durable engraved panel.

Some flicker is caused by camera shutter, with high-frequency input signals bars "steady lights" (too fast switching for eye)."
