Key Features
The Frequency Central Cosmic Background, Analog Drum Voice is an all-analog, multi-timbral drum voice module for Eurorack synthesizers. Cosmic Background is split into four interconnected sections with a white-noise source at the centre. Manipulating the white-noise sources can lead to a wide range of exciting percussive elements. The three remaining sections are comprised of a release generator, switchable high and low-pass filter and VCA.
To shape and sculpt your sound, controls such as Cutoff, Resonance and Release are included. Resonance can be used to add a large amount of punch and attack to your signal, whilst Cutoff helps to focus the sound to accurately emulate different elements of a drum kit. Adjusting the Release of your sound will extend the envelope of your sound, helping to add sustain and bloom to your drum. With such a diverse range of controls, Cosmic Background can handle everything from pounding techno kicks, sizzling trap hats and punchy snares.
Flexible CV control is used throughout with the addition of Gate, Filter and VCA CV inputs as well as Release, Noise, VCF and VCA outputs. These can be patched externally or left internally pre-patched for a huge range of integration with your existing Eurorack synthesizer.

Undeniably the most important factor in any electronic music production, your drums are the foundation on which the rest of your track is built. They lay the groundwork for the feel, groove and tone of your composition. Getting this right is imperative to a sound that gets people onto the dance floor and the Frequency Central Cosmic Background is here to aid you. Incredibly flexible, the module can function as a variety of different percussive elements from hard-hitting techno bass drums, crunching and articulate hats to punchy and thunderous snares.
Cosmic Background employs many vital tonal shaping options that help you to carve out the perfect sound for your mix. Resonance and Release controls offer the ability to shape the envelope of your sound, boosting either the attack or release to drastically change the character of your drum. Additionally, a frequency cut-off and Sweep function work in tandem to shape the response curve of your drum to filter out any excessive highs when looking for a thunderous bass drum sound.
