Their most unusual introduction is Fx Boy, a 12 HP multi FX module with CV controllable EQ and Dry wet. Each FX is built into a Gameboy cart.
Befaco has gathered a group of fellow Eurorack manufacturers to design carts.

You can expect old fashioned flangers, aggressive folders, dirty bitcrushers, fuzz galore and trashy distortions.

Befaco will also be introducing a 1u version of the Molten Motion Meter.
The 1u version will be functioning as the 3u counterpart, but with four channels.
The module will be released at the end of June, assembled and as a semi-soldered kit at an estimated price of €165 /€130 after taxes.
Finally, Befaco is introducing the MIDI Thing 2, a new, “sexier and more powerful” version of their MIDI Thing.

The module will feature monophonic and polyphonic modes, with built-in ADSR, LFOs and Oscillators. It will have a configuration Website, as well as a bridge mode for VCV rack.
