The Furthrrrr Generator by Austrian manufacturer Endorphin.es is a complex completely analog oscillator inspired by the Buchla 259. The sound is obese and fat, has a tremendous bass but is gets much more complex by the plethora of features and makes the Furthrrr a top-notch oscillator with an extreme wide range of sonic possibilities.

The Endorphin.es cover protects the sockets and control elements of your Shuttle Systems on the road. The lid is deep enough to transport the modular instrument with patch cables plugged in. A Velcro holds the cover in place. With the help of the side panels included in this package, the cover can also be used for Frap Tools cases (2x Plus 84 HP).

You can’t tune two VCOs to note A in less than a minute? – You need the Autopilot! Simply connect oscillators and a pitch CV source, press the module’s button and wait for a few seconds. – It doesn’t get any easier than this.

The Shuttle System is a versatile modular setup, capable of generating classical as well as experimental sounds. The synthesizer is composed of two Buchla style oscillators plus Waveshaper, two function generators, which can be used as envelopes, LFOs or additional VCOs, two filters respectively low pass gates with eight modes of operation and an effects processor.  Furthermore, a mono / stereo mixer with inserts and ducking compressor, utility circuits and a tune section are included. To control all those components, the instrument features an extensively equipped MIDI CV interface. – Consequently, the Shuttle System is able to create an extremely wide range of high quality sounds.

More than just a mixer – The Cockpit can not only be used to sum up mono and stereo signals with modular or line level, but as an effect insert for smartphones and tablets as well. Additionally, the module offers a ducking compressor plus sidechain input. Several Cockpits can be daisy-chained to form a large mixing setup. The audio paths feature a completely analog design to guarantee high-class sound.

The Grand Terminal is a digital multipurpose module for ambitious sound designers. It contains two function generators, which can be used as envelopes, LFOs or VCOs, two filter channels with eight modes of operation, mixing and routing options as well as a multi effects unit. Considering this feature set, it is safe to say that the Grand Terminal is more than the sum of its parts. It is a complete synthesizer voice, which can also be used as a dual mono or stereo filter plus reverb, delay respectively chorus processor and modulators. Despite its high complexity, handling the unit is easy as pie. The sound is crystal clear and, thanks to all the filter types and effect algorithms, very versatile. Simply put it in your modular and take off!

The Shuttle Mate merges MIDI streams from DIN and USB sockets into one MIDI flow which is available simultaneously at a USB and a DIN output socket, making it a perfect companion to Endorphines' Shuttle Control module. But as it can operate on its own is is more than just an expander. USB powered it can be used totally independently as a standalone device.

Gateway as expander for Endorphin.es' Terminal module allows for better envelope control as well as direct access to the hidden functions: CVs now can be routed directly to the parameters Shape or Duration and for each of the Terminals' channels there are two end-of trigger outputs. The Gateway turns the envelopes to oscillators and the lopass gates to -12dB lowpass filters, if desired!

But there are some functions that can be used without a Terminal, too: besides a 1+1 mixer with DC offset there's a revolutionary Autotune function for precise oscillator tuning!

The strong zero VCO core is a digital oscillator core for the Furthrrrr-Generator which is inserted instead of the analog original one. This way precise and brilliant FM is made posible.

The truly unique Shuttle Control is, in first line, a freely configurable converter from USB-MIDI to CV/gate/clock with 16 outputs. Use the USB sockets to connect USB keyboard for instance and (now to the killer feature) the "to device" micro USB connector to hook up a tablet with controller software which doesn't have to be capable of MIDI ... or connect directly a PC/Mac!
Last but not least you can use it as a power supply + distribution and internal MIDI/CV buss for an Endophines complete system consisiting of a Furthrrr, a Terminal and a Shuttle Control. Brilliant!
