Larix Elektro Introduces Time, Canon, Origami Eurorack Modules Ahead Of Superbooth 2025


Ahead of Superbooth 2025, being held May 8-10 at the FEZ-Berlin, Larix Elektro has announced two new modules, Time & Canon. In addition, they plan to preview a new Eurorack synth voice, Origami.

The Time module can convert a trigger signal (any signal) into a gate signal, with CV control of the time. It’s also a clock generator, a ramp generator, and even a clock divider with the Shift-R extension.

The full demo:

The Canon module is designed for creating musical canon, or ’rounds’, using gate and CV. In a nutshell, Canon can delay gate and CV signals so that you can have multiple voices playing the same melody, but at delayed intervals.

They’ve shared a preview via Instagram:
