Freestylo

A stylus keyboard for Eurorack, where the stylus is a patch cable.

Three jacks: one for the stylus, one CV out, one gate out. Touch the cable to a keyboard pad and the gate fires while the CV jumps to that note. It is a deliberately silly idea that turns out to be a genuinely quick way to audition a melody without reaching for a keyboard.

The front panel is the circuit board, which makes it more than skiff-friendly. Any external 5 V trigger works in place of the stylus, so it can also be driven from the rack.

No longer in production. It is documented here because it existed and people own them.

  • Patch cable as stylus — touch a pad, get a gate and a pitch.
  • CV range of one octave, between 1 and 2 V.
  • External 5 V triggers work instead of the stylus.
  • The front panel is the module itself.
  • Supplied with a stylus cable and a bus power cable.
