Befaco's approach of a dual complex function generator á la Serge / Buchla / Maths externds the idea of an integrator for slew limiting, envelope generation and oscillations by an analog logic processor and a slope detector per function generator which generates complex gate signals by analyzing if the generated curve is rising or falling at the given time.

Small, crisp and flexible – The VC ADSR is a compact, well equipped envelope offering excellent performance. The module can be activated via its gate input or a button. A trigger / gate switch allows the user to choose between two modes of operation. Attack, decay, sustain and release parameters are manually adjustable via sliders. Additionally, they can be modulated using CV inputs. The curves of all time values are shapeable. Four gate outputs emit a signal every time the corresponding phase (A, D, S or R) is active.

The ADSR from Birdkids offers six useful modes of operation including different very senseful loop modes. If you learn and remember these while using (see details), it is quite a flexible compact powerful tool in just 4HP of your Eurorack case.

The ADSR-VC2 is a dual envelope generator with two identical, independent ADSR units which can be both triggered simultaneously by one single trigger due to a normalized jack. All parameters (attack, decay, sustain release and the output level) can be voltage controlled. Besides short A, D and R times a switchable characteristic of the attack for punchy and crisp envelopes, but also long envelope times are possible of course.

However, there is only one shared set of potentiometers for editing all envelopes. – A great design for polyphonic patches. On top of this, all envelope phases can be influenced by control voltages.

Voltage controlled envelope generator with one parameter: decay. Due to additional outputs for positive and negative gate with adjustable threshold the module can be also used as a voltage controlled trigger delay.

The A-142-2 consists of two VCAs, which are controlled by envelopes. The modulators work with AD, AR or ADSR characteristic. The behaviour can be selected via toggle switch. The timer input can be used to control jumper-selectable parameters (A, D/R or A+D/R). In addition, the two channels are equipped with a ducking input, which can be used to mute the VCA using an external control voltage.

The module A-142-4 consists of four envelopes with exactly one parameter: decay

The four envelopes can be chained for creating a multi-stage envelope available at the Mix output. You can determine at which threshold if the decay stage the next envelope will be started. A bi-polar attenuator at each envelope determines if it wil be added normally or inverted to the mix.

Quad ADSR type envelope generator with time ranges of 0.2ms to 5min. Each ADSR units has a gate- and a retrigger input as well as one output and a time range switch.
Quite interesting are the "end-of" outputs which provide you with gate signals after the corresponding time stage has been finished. You can use this gate signal to start further ADSRs and thus for creating complex envelopes, pseudo LFOs etc.

Falistri definitely is a strong competitor to another module with a confusing name – the Make Noise Maths. In essence Falistri is a fully featured dual envelope generator / LFO / oscillator. But additionally, you will also find a Ringmodulator and a Slew Limiter plus a Flip-Flop. Altogether these (sub-)units beg for creative re-patching. Another feature that stands out is that you can alter the shape of the envelopes independently of the overall time! That is a feature rarely seen and mostly done digital. The Falistri however is analog through and through. No DSPs here. We see this module as a possible center piece for many (and especially small) systems!

Inconspicuous small ADSR type envelope but with an astonishing supersnappy punch! It is a clone of Roland's 100m modular system's envelope generator.

Grp’s ADSR module is a classic envelope with attack, decay, sustain and release phases. Three time ranges are available (slow, medium, fast). Thanks to a Thru socket, incoming gate signals can be passed on to other modules. Furthermore, there are positive and negative outputs.

The Galilean Moons module consists of two identical function generator and VCA units. As the function generators are normalized to the VCAs, you can easily create an synth voice by inserting an audio signal. Due to the envelope generators' behaviour the voice is great for percussive sounds but it's not limited to it.
Besides of this the module is intended to be an expander for the Hexinverter module Jupiter Storm.

Dual ADSR that is based on the envelope of the Roland SH-101, but several enhancements. Besides the funky faders it has a cycle mode, trigger buttons and some more features.

Joranalogue Contour 1 introduces a new approach to the classic Slew Limiter circuit. The module offers significantly improved performance and control through the integration of modern design techniques. It can act as a slew limiter, envelope generator, envelope follower, (gated) VC(LF)O, frequency divider, slope detector and much more.

Date of availability still not known, sorry.

The omnimod is a four-channel modulation source. Per channel encoders are used to set up to 64 break points and to shape envelopes. At each point of the envelope you have the ability to to set height, shift, number of repetitions and the curve shape - that's what we call a real multi-stage envelope and it even has an OLED display to show what you're doing.
Inputs can be used to trigger and even to clock the channels, advancing from break point to braekpoint and thus playing sequences! Instead a clock use a CV to control the phase. The module has an oscillosope and can act as an envelope follower, to top it all.

Contour is a classic ADSR envelope with some nifty additional features. Attack and sustain parameters feature dedicated potentiometers. Decay and release are controlled mutually via one knob. CV inputs allow users to modulate all time parameters. Contour’s curve shapes can be linear or exponential. – Or anything in between. EON and EOC connectors emit a trigger signal after the attack respectively the release phase is completed. For tapping envelope signals, there are a normal and an inverted output. Contour stands out due to fast response and intuitive operation. The module is a great choice for creating percussive sounds. By connecting the EON output to the gate input, Contour can be transformed into a LFO.

Similar to the related MATHS module, FUNCTION is also a versatile function generator, so to say an electronic swiss army knife for your eurorack module system. You can use it as an envelope, LFO, portamento generator, sample&hold or as a simple filter, but many other utility functions can be generated once you have understood the module.

You need plenty of modulation workhorses like LFOs or envelopes rather than multi-functional and complicated function generators? Then look no further because the AD/LFO has what you need and that is six digital channels. Each three channels can be either an AD envelope or a LFO, are available as a mix at sum outputs and can work ten times slower at the press of a button.
