A transparent overview of what exists, what’s being built, and what’s still just a sketch on the bench.

NULLPUNKT

Low-end analyzer tool — a stage-ready way to verify mono compatibility, phase coherence, and low-frequency stability for kick+bass (or any stereo low end). The display runs on an analysis-only low-pass with fast presets, so you can zoom into SUB / LOW / BASS without touching the audio path. Tool-free firmware updates via audio (WAV).

Category: Low-end analyzer / mono tool
About: NULLPUNKT focuses on the parts of a mix that most often betray you on big systems: sub mono, phase drift, and low-end cancellation.

The core view is a low-end goniometer (XY) paired with a mono / cancellation meter. A user-selectable analysis low-pass limits what the display and metrics “see” — perfect for answering questions like “Is my sub safe in mono?” (SUB) or “Where does my low end start to smear?” (LOW / BASS).

Important: the low-pass is analysis-only. The CH1/CH2 THRU signals remain unprocessed.
Format: 8HP
Core: STM32F030RCT6
I/O: CH1 In (Thru) + CH2 In (Thru) + Trigger In (Thru)
UI: 1.3" 128×64 OLED + Encoder (push) + Button + RGB LED
Analysis LPF: Presets SUB 100 Hz / LOW 160 Hz / BASS 250 Hz (display + metrics only)
Status: Hardware V1 complete; firmware in progress (Low-End Gonio / Mono+Cancel Meter / Phase+Correlation + Audio Update)

SKALA

Ultra-compact fully analog LED level meter — a fast, stage-ready way to see headroom, gain staging and transient peaks at a glance. Musical -3dB scaling, designed for fast response and clear readability in a dense patch.

Prototype Analog 4HP

SKALA image 02
Category: LED level meter / gain staging tool
About: SKALA is built for quick, repeatable gain staging in Eurorack and small live setups: see what the signal is doing before it hits saturation, VCAs, filters, or recording.

The display uses musical -3dB steps and a fast response tuned for transients, so kick/bass peaks stay readable without turning into a blur.
Format: 4HP
Core: Fully analog with no LM3914 but discrete comparators
I/O: Audio In + Buffered Audio Out
UI: LED bar + Range switch + Momentary button (electronic latch with MOSFET)
Scaling: Musical -3dB steps
Status: PCB & panel design finalized; ready for manufacturing

SCHUBKRAFT

Analog kick + bass bus processor — low-voltage ECC82/12AU7 tube glue with a parallel wet path (Sub-Cut + Tone), a dedicated “Spice” harmonics branch, CV-ready VCA blend, and a PRE-CLIP indicator for repeatable gain staging.

In development Analog 14HP
Category: Tube saturation / bus glue
About: SCHUBKRAFT is a fully analog “tube glue” bus processor for Eurorack — built to make kick and bass (or any two low-end sources) lock together fast.

Two inputs are mixed to a common bus and sent into a parallel wet path. Sub-Cut keeps the wet sub clean, while a starved-plate ECC82/12AU7 adds harmonic density, saturation, and gentle compression. A Tone filter smooths the upper harmonics, and an SSI2164 VCA blends wet back into dry — manually and via CV.

For extra presence there’s a dedicated Spice branch: high-pass filtered, asymmetric diode harmonics that sit “on top” without turning the foundation into mush. The PRE-CLIP indicator with hold time makes gain staging repeatable on stage — you can see when the bus is in the sweet spot.
Format: 14HP
Core: ECC82 / 12AU7
I/O: Kick In + Bass In + Blend CV In + Audio Out
UI: Kick Level + Bass Level + Drive + Glue switch + Blend (+ CV amount) + Sub Cut + Sub/Tight + Tone + Output Level + Pre Clip LED
Status: In development (schematic & layout iteration)

FRAKTUR

BLICKFANG

Performance CV → DMX interface — translate modular gestures into stage lighting with a small OLED, fast on-device mapping, and presets. Low-latency output via a 32-channel window, with an isolated XLR DMX512 out. Tool-free firmware updates via audio (WAV).

Concept Digital Powered by Taktwerk RTOS 10HP
Category: CV → DMX interface
About: BLICKFANG is built to make music visible — a hands-on bridge from Eurorack control voltages to real-world DMX lighting (stage fixtures, LED bars, and installations).

Eight CV inputs can be mapped quickly on-device using a small OLED + encoder workflow: set a DMX window start address, assign channels, dial in scaling/response, and store everything as presets for repeatable shows.

The output stays stage-safe and predictable: an isolated XLR DMX512 out, low-latency short-frame sending (32-channel window), and a master control for global intensity / blackout behavior. Firmware updates are intentionally “computer-free” — load new builds via audio (WAV).
Format: 10HP
Core: STM32
I/O: 8 CV inputs; DMX512 out (XLR, isolated)
UI: Small OLED + Encoder (push) + Master knob + RGB LEDs
Status: V1 baseline: 32-channel DMX window (1–481) + presets + low-latency output + tool-free audio (WAV) firmware updates; RTOS integration planned
