u-he has announced availability of its first hardware product CVilization, a compact Eurorack utility which packs a lot of functionality into a small form thanks to a rather clever user interface.
CVilization is useful for mixing, routing and sequencing CV or audio signals. Processing options including quantization, sample & hold and glide, user presets, the performance tools and nifty CV control aim to place the module at the very heart of any modular setup.
A compact Eurorack module featuring 4 operating modes that span a wide range of applications. While CVilization is perhaps not the most intuitive module in the world, it provides easy-to-learn solutions for many complex tasks.
It can turn a small modular setup into an animated quadraphonic system. It can be your go-to quantizer or your preset-driven submixer. It can expand your step sequencer with extra tracks, randomisation and other performance features. CVilization has changed the way we approach modular composition.
