1Uesday: Koma Elektronik (sale), Doepfer goodies for your 1U rack

It’s time to resurrect 1Uesday, because the single-height 1U Eurorack format is heating up again. We’ve got some cheap and cheery Koma Elektronik tools — including some lovely leftfield stuff — plus a new range from Doepfer. If you’ve got the case for it, you can put it to good use.

ALM records everything to stems, and now mixes, too, in compact modules

It’s Stem Ripper, and its expansion module accomplice, “With Mixer.” Patch it up quick, record individual stems, and perform stereo mixing with aux sends, panning, and even external USB MIDI control. And fit it all in 6HP + 8HP, with clever Eurorack modules from ALM/Busy Circuits.
