Geometric Anomaly | by This Is Not Rocket Science

The Geometric Anomaly earned SonicState's 'best of modular' on Superbooth 2024 so I am proud to present it to you. However...
Only 50 were made and some are 'reserved', whatever that means.
So how does this work?

TiNRS is basically Stijn and Priscilla Haring-Kuipers from Amsterdam so it's a small independent manufacturer with limited resources. Stijn made the Geometric Anomaly 'for his birthday', so the plan was to make only one.
Then Priscilla said something like 'nice, get yourself a different present, and build a few more, like 50'. Anyway, the Geometric Anomaly is a very limited edition and time will tell how limited it really is. If I am informed correctly, they ran out of parts to build more.

I am a big fan of TiNRS, so I bought one and I'll treat it as any other new module worthy of a cool video.

TiNRS likes to perform live, and usually they had to drag a big Fenix IV modular synth to a gig. The Geometric Anomaly is a slimmed down mini Fenix with two VCO's, ADSR envelope generators and filters. One SVF, one Ladder. It looks like a complex VCO, but I'd describe it as a 'live performance synth' that's made to tweak on stage. It can make huge sounds with minimal effort but it also provides plenty of resources to go 'complex' if you really want to. It may not be 'best of modular', but I think it deserves the predicate 'best new VCO for live performers'. But I am biased, so just listen and decide for yourself.

I could use the fortcoming 'Bopp & Steve' effect module in this video, but I need to emphasize that it's a prototype and there's still a lot of work to be done because the planned DSP chip was recently updated and a rewrite is necessary. I'll keep you posted.

My gamer-tag back in the 90's used to be 'AnomalyX' ... now I want one! 😖

Started playing with my anomaly yesterday, it's stunning, although taking a bit to get my head around the two filters

I was luckily enough to get my hands on one as well, couldn't agree more with the video!

Fabulous video ✌🏻 thank you so much See you soon at DMF

Great vid! I want to pick up one of the 50, but from your understanding, since it will be available for people to build, do you think there will be any makers likely to build it and offer it for sale like the mutable clones out there?

What was the colourful LED VU meter module in your Instruo case?

There might be some still available, I emailed Priscilla only a few days ago and mine is on its way I am so looking forward to it!
