Description / Specs
Make Noise's 0-CTRL is a standalone touch controller and sequencer designed to be the perfect companion to their 0-Coast semi-modular synthesizer.
Clearly a new extension of principles established in their own Pressure Points and Brains, the 0-CTRL is the latest controller continuing the legacy of Buchla's early capacitive touch plate controllers and Serge's classic TKB keyboard/sequencer. Offering hands-on control for desktop semi-modular synths and Eurorack signal compatibility, the 0-CTRL is an exciting step from Make Noise further into the realm of standalone device design.
The most obvious addition? The 0-CTRL has its own internal voltage-controllable clock generator. This means the 0-CTRL can function as its own standalone sequencing device, without needing an external clock to drive it. The bottom row of tunable knobs is normalled to the Time CV input, making it easy to create sequences with different durations for each stage.
The 0-CTRL is an excellent choice for a standalone CV controller. It's completely analog, making it easy to see at a glance what it is doing. It features clever internal normalled connections that allow easy control of many parameters for creating unusually dynamic, flexible, and even quirky sequences—so whether you're aiming to make straightforward, beat-focused music or soundscapes that embrace unpredictability, the 0-CTRL might be perfect for you.
Pair it with a 0-Coast for a modern take on the Buchla Music Easel, or add it to any semi-modular or modular synth to add a new level of hands-on control. In any of these situations, the 0-CTRL is an ideal way to add more interaction to your own pieces and performances.
