ALM Busy Circuits CIZZLE Dual Phase Distortion VCO

Description

The CIZZLE is a dual digital phase distortion VCO inspired by the classic Casio CZ series synthesisers.
It brings the specifics of the CZ style phase distortion (PD) synthesis into Euro- rack format with the inclusion of primary and secondary oscillator layering and detuning (with up to 8 voice chord generation), extended morphable PD wave generation algorithms, unique reso- nance wave generation, plus specific end of chain ring modulation and noise modes that are key to the CZ sound.

The voices also feature built in VCAs, various modulation controls and inputs, a cv-able chord mode, tracking ability, triggered mode switching and can be output independently or mixed with stereo widening.

The CIZZLE finally brings characteristic CZ style synthesis to Eurorack with a rich palette of sounds from mellow ambient tones, 90s Detroit Techno inspired chords, Reese style basses, and synth tones with unique faux resonance squelch.
