Bring the uniquely slamming sounds of the hit drum machine to your Eurorack system with the PĒRKONS Voice from Erica Synths. Condensed into a formidable 3U package, the PĒRKONS voice delivers thirty-one distinct algorithms for generating a wide range of drums, cymbals, and other synthesized sounds, providing a powerful palette of percussive energy to liven up your system. Algorithms include classic FM drums, sizzling noise based cymbals, and characterful synths like the Wave Morph Drum or Karplus Strong string engines. Each algorithm features two distinct parameters, plus the common controls for tuning, envelope decay, drive, and a multimode filter.

Use the hands-on controls to shape your sounds and define a variety of your favorites to save as preset patches. The patch CV input allows you to automate movement between preset patches as the voice is triggered, letting you create sequences of changing drum tones, linear patterns across full drum kits, and more. Onboard inputs for both trigger and accent make it simple to add dynamic movement to your rhythms, and CV control over each parameter lets your drum tones endlessly morph for complex and captivating sequences. The PĒRKONS has already drummed up plenty of respect for its deep sound design potential and richly raucous percussive power. Now in patchable form, the PĒRKONS Voice from Erica Synths paves the way for further experimentation, providing danceable delicacies and treacherous tones to any Eurorack system.
