FF chaos
FF Chaos (flip-flop) - This is another chaos module but designed to supply a variety of
gates and triggers. It is self running but can be synced with the
gate/trigger input. There is also a CV input which shifts the
output between periodic and chaotic behaviour. There are two CV
outputs, one trigger output and three gate outputs which supply
different and varying gates that can be delivered in bursts......this
thing is simply nuts.
The most common build error with these is people soldering the passives on the bottom of the PCB onto the wrong pads. Please use the above picture to check the passives are installed correctly. Also some PCB versions need a couple of mods, check the Build Guide to see if your version need these.
mixer & headphone amp
This is a 3 input mixer with a minijack and 1/4" output as well.
The headphone amp has its own input and volume control. This way you can monitor a single patch and set it up whilst other patches are fed to the PA. If nothing is inserted into the headphone input, then the mixer output is routed to the headphones, so you can patch away in bed without disturbing your sweet sleeping partner.
All the pots and minijacks are mounted on the PCB.
PCB - $15
Panel - $25
The 1st batch of these are reserved for the WAMOD workshop, a 2nd batch will ba available in late October.

Sloth Chaos
This is a very simple to build chaos module that can be built in 2 ways: slow or VERY slow. Slow means 1 cycle every 15 seconds, VERY slow is 1 cycle every 15 minutes. It can take up to an hour for any change to be apparent when tweaking the pot. This module is ideal for ambience and extremely patient synth users. I developed it as I like to have my synths running whilst soldering away in the workshop and I like slow never-repeating changes to the patches.
The PCB is 16 x 95 mm, suitable for 4HP eurorack panels (panels will be available soon)
PCBs are available now (13/9/2014) for $8 each.
Shipping is $5 per order
The super slow version shown below has two 1000uF caps.

Hyperchaos Module
This vid shows testing of a hyperchaotic circuit. The circuit is comprised of two coupled Wien Bridge oscillators. There is a temptation to call it 'Hyper Wieners', but I might just leave the 'ers' silent and call it Hyper-Wien.
Anyway, it oscillates at approx 0.5Hz, the PCB will have a vactrol to 'control' it but the effect from any CV signal takes 30 seconds to a minute to make the pattern change.

Sloth: slow chaos
This module produces two chaotic signals. one is approx 4V p-p, the other about 8V p-p. It can be built in 2 ways, either as slow chaos, about 15 seconds per cycle or as very slow chaos, about 15 minutes per cycle.......perfect for all day everchanging ambience.
Very simple to build, no rare parts, just 12 resistors and 7 capacitors. the plot below shows one output over a 3 hour and 20 minute period (1Ks = approx 16 minutes).

dual OTA VCO
A dual tri-core VCO intended for the next WAMOD workshop. PCBs may be available in the future. Quite simple design, not great tracking or stability but decent enough and very usable.
