Only businesses can list items as Brand New.Please check out the link to video included in this listing.Price is firm.Thanks, but I'm not interested in trades of any sort.From Rabid Elephant:IntroductionPortal Drum is an analogue powerhouse for creating novel tuned-drum sounds. Portal Drum is particularly well suited to create kick drums but it will also create many great sounding toms, percussion instruments, and synth/bass lines. With Portal Drum, we wanted to make a new canonical drum sound with just a hint of nostalgia. Through this portal you will undoubtedly discover new territories!Portal Drum utilises an underlying philosophy that an instrument should sound right with minimal or even no additional processing. You will immediately find Portal Drum fits much better in a mix without compression, post-EQ, layering, resampling, etc. This keeps the music making process more immediate and fun.Portal Drum features a total of 3 painstakingly designed envelopes for PITCH DECAY (FM), TRANSIENT, and AMP DECAY. These novel envelopes are a big part of Portal Drum's characteristic sound and not found in any other synthesiser.The Portal fold circuit adds focused and more interesting nonlinearities from subtle warmth and saturation to near-extraterrestrial reaches that cut a tunnel through the spectra.The equalisation section of Portal Drum contains a HPF for keeping your tunes lite while the GAP EQUALIZER drastically contours and pushes frequency content to the edges providing a huge array of mixed drum tones.The Portal Drum is the first instrument of ours to feature the DynaControl system. This gives the user a way to macroise a particular drum design and be able to play it easily and musically with minimal external patching. In fact, only one wire is needed to fire the drum and modulate up to 6 parameters which gives the user a realistic 'how hard' input as found on a real drum.Portal Drum features no less than 18 knobs and 16 switches for tuning to your heart's content, all in an ergonomic 20HP. Addition of fully featured attenuverters, each with their own range/polarity switches and S&H circuits on each of the parameters means this module is a truly all-in-on solution.Because of the use of dual-concentric controls, we create a highly dense module without sacrificing ergonomics. Portal Drum requires no external EQs, S&H modules, compressors, distortions, or utilities to create complete drum sounds. For it's size, cost, and of course novel sound, it is unrivalled.Portal Drum is capable of a ton of different drum sounds - everything from minimal 'pillow kicks' and toms to esoteric perc sounds, rimshots, woodblocks, claves, and ticks n clicks. Just listen and twiddle and you will find your own special spots!FeaturesPORTAL and SATURATION wave distortion modes (Cable) PITCH modulation with custom envelopes provide fully adjustable FM sweeps (CVable)Selectable pitch envelope shapes: 'Rabid Elephant' and 'Classic'AMP DECAY for adjusting the duration of the kick (CVable)TRANSIENT generator for adding all sorts of colours of cliks, tiks, cluks, etc. (CVable)HPF gives other bass frequencies room and controls litenessPowerful EQ sculpting with the GAP EQUALIZER (CVable)MEOW displaces the bloom of harmonic energy instead of placing it all up frontThree meticulously crafted custom envelopes for FM, AMP, and TRANSIENTDynaControl system for applying musical dynamics to any or all CVable parameters with just a single input - with one cable it is possible to expressively run the entire drumFully-featured a mode attenserters on air c in puts for biploar, unipolar positive, or unipolar negative knob operation, which eliminates wasted knob rangeDual concentric conductive plastic pots with high cycle life and smooth action to increase feature density with no compromises to ergonomicsLow loss, high speed active reverse voltage protection, overcurrent protection, ESD protectionAll Rabid Elephant instruments are professionally hand-crafted products built and designed to exceptionally high standards of performance, quality, and most importantly: musical sound.
