Logic IC's were created to keep order in electronics. To take in a voltage signal, do some simple maths with 1 & 0's and send the results out to perform a variety of quiet and boring functions.

Chaotic Logic is a Synax module that takes a pair of nice, orderly Boolean logic ICs and turns them into screaming psychopaths. Let them run wild or strap them down when they need a bit of restraint.

Amp up or mellow out the aural chaos through a number of controls:

Inject your own concoction into the current flow via 3 CV inputs for Gate, LFO, and Osc 2.

Smother the screams or incense them with the built-in LP Filter and pitch controls, along with an octave switch that allows you to change between low and high octave ranges.

Other tools of manipulation include rotary controls for Modulation, Detuning and internal LFO speed as well as a pair of switches that allow you to flip between internal and external LFO control and turn the second oscillator on and off.

All together this module gives you you the ability to create your own unique waveforms. Be it chip-tune, industrial, drones, or slow, mellow beats; there are endless possibilities to explore in creating your soundscape with the Synax VCO/LFO module. Sculpt your sound even further with other Synax modules, like the ADSR, Mult/Mix, or Callosum Dual VCA.

No matter if you're brand new to modular synthesis or already have a rack full of equipment, Chaotic Logic gives you a highly customizable and compact VCO/LFO to sit in your rack or lunchbox alongside all your other Synax and Eurorack modules.

Inject a little insanity into your sound.

The idea for Synax and MagPower evolved over the past several years, while dealing with the aftermath of losing my job of 15 years due to Covid. This project kept me going, day in and day out, because I believed in the idea and fell in love with the process of research and design that goes into every Synax module. It gave me something to focus on when my mind was filled to the brim with worries about the future. I worked all the time developing the MagPower system and creating Synax modules, but wasn't getting any money from it. I'm hoping that others will find as much interest in the system as I have throughout the development process. The current Synax modules available are only the beginning. I have numerous modules in development and several modules close to the finish. I try to do as much homework and testing as possible to be sure that you're getting a quality product in the end.

MagPower is based around a magnetic connection between three pogo pins on the power panel and 3 copper tracks on the back of each Synax module. Power into the panel comes from a standard 10-pin Eurorack connector. From there it gets filtered and sent through a twin-IC hot-swap circuit. This allows Synax modules to be swapped in and out on-the-fly during a performance while protecting both the MagPower panel and the rest of your system from being affected due to over/under voltage or current.

The Synax module itself is comprised of 2 boards secured to each other with 6mm standoffs. One side of the main board provides the user controls, and the reverse contains all of the circuitry to make it work. To this is connected another board of the same size that provides power to the module from the magnetic connection on the Eurorack power panel. The module power board is attached to the main board with 4 standoffs and several pogo pins to provide power without being permanently wired to the module. This allows you to quickly and easily swap out the main or power board if required, or access the programming pins on modules using a microcontroller. A screwdriver is the only tool needed to take everything apart.

*Note: Synax modules require the MagPower Eurorack power panel to use, which is sold separately.
