Noise Engineering Basimilus Iteritas Alia Black 10HP Eurorack Percussion Synthesizer

Best for

Eurorack users wanting a performable monophonic percussion and synthesis voice for kicks, snares, hats, basses and leads, with deep CV control and free Alia firmware swapping.

Who should skip

Skip it when polyphony, MIDI, standalone operation, line-level plug-and-play output or a complete drum machine with sequencing is required. It needs a powered Eurorack case, trigger/CV sources and an external signal path.

Watchouts

This is the Alia Eurorack hardware module, not Basimilus Iteritas Alter and not the Basimilus software plugin. It is monophonic, has no MIDI or sequencer and cannot operate without a Eurorack case. Installing another Alia firmware changes the module function; a matching overlay is optional and separate.

Likely add-ons

• powered Eurorack case with 10HP free space and adequate +12 V/-12 V capacity
• 3.5 mm patch cables
• audio monitoring or downstream Eurorack signal path

Verify before buying

• Does the case have 10HP and at least 1.5 inches of usable depth?
• Can the power supply provide +12 V 105 mA and -12 V 10 mA?
• Are trigger, pitch CV, modulation CV and audio/envelope connections compatible with the patch?
• Is a monophonic voice appropriate?
• Will alternate Alia firmware require a matching panel overlay?
