Landscape Moon 4-Channel Passive Drum Machine Coming Soon
Landscape, developer of unique touch-based musical instruments, shared this sneak preview of the Moon, a passive analog 4-channel rhythmic instrument.
Moon, developed in collaboration with Eli Pechman of Mystic Circuits, is the smaller, 4-channel descendant of their Noon 8-channel instrument.
Here’s what they have to say about it:
“Activate and modulate Moon using voltage from external sequencers. No power supply needed. Analog circuits are powered momentarily by incoming gate and control voltage signals causing them to oscillate and move naturally. When Moon’s channels are combined, they grow, inform and process one another in complex rhythmic ways. Momentary power increases the unstable properties and organic textures of analog circuits. The immediacy of simple controls allows for rapid alterations without patching. Each of the four channels is a unique analog circuit with its own characteristics.”
The Moon is available now to pre-order, priced at $390, with shipping planned for ‘winter 2025-26’.
