Thank you for purchasing the Erica Synths Pico Series module!
With Pico Series we challenged ourselves – can we make ANY superior functionality synth module 3HP wide and affordable? Yes, we can.
The Erica Synths Pico Envelope Follower features a preamp with +40dB gain, enough to boost even guitar AND DYNAMIC MICROPHONE signals for use in a modular
system, which also can serve as a nice overdrive effect, envelope output with adjustable attack time, and a gate output with adjustable threshold. The Pico E.F.
will be useful as a preamp, overdrive unit, for controlling VCFs in a beat with a drum track to create the acid basslines, to synchronize a modular system to the external instruments, and for other creative and experimental applications.
