AVE MOD V2
This circuit is one the first I experimented with. After modifying a few video devices, I wanted to work on a little standalone glitch circuit, this is where the search for video schematic started.
I started taking interest in electronic with audio, so I was quite used to find information about guitar pedals, synthesizers, studio gear, but there’s much less about analog video on the internet.
However I found this circuit traced by Philip Baljeu from an Archer Video Enhancer/Sound Mixer and posted on the electro-music forum.
Here’s the result, it adds 5 potentiometer, 4 switches and audioreactivity so the circuit can react with an external audio signal.
The circuit is PAL/NTSC compatible, it’s powered by either a 9V battery or a 9V DC power supply and works best with a CRT TV. US PSU
Circuit boards, kits and assembled circuits are now available through the store of the website.

Rare picture of myself in my natural habitat, staring (and probably cussing) at an oscilloscope.
Went into a major overhaul of my workspace at the beginning of the year, partitioning it into better defined areas, as well as adding more storage space. Pictured here are the prototyping bench (left) and the assembly bench (right).

Animate EXP and Solaire are back in stock!
Here is one of my go-to patch: ramps and shapes from Rampes into Cadrans, with amplitude modulation from Animate + Animate EXP to add some motion. Outputs of Cadrans into Solaire, outputs of Solaire into ReverseLandfill Matrix Mixer, encoded in Component 720p60 with Sortie.
(Note that this is the last batch of Animate EXP and it won’t be re-stocked, so probably time to grab one to add some waveforms to your Animate)

Stable is back in stock!
I was asked if Cadrans would make a good addition to Stable. While it is probably not as instantly gratifying as other processors like Solaire, Seuils or Isohélie, Cadrans and its amplitude modulation is a good way to modulate how much feedback is applied to Stable.
To do so, Stable post-proc output is connected to Cadrans input, output of Cadrans going back to Stable CV inputs, closing the feedback loop. Then, a pitch sequence from a step sequencer (here a Beatstep Pro) is used as CV for Cadrans, essentially automating the feedback in sync with the music.
Recorded in Composite NTSC/480i59.94
Next on the re-stock list are Solaire, Animate EXP and VU001C.

Posterizer lovers and limited color depth enjoyers, Isohélie is back in stock!
Here used to process a picture, with Entrée, Rampes, VH.S Baja, ReverseLandfill Matrix Mixer and Sortie.
Animate EXP, Stable and VU001C restock will follow shortly.
Until next time!

Sortie is now available!
Same size and features as VU007B, revamped UI for easier format selection/external format display, and DC power input.
Sortie (french for output) is a RGB to Composite/S-video/Component encoder and sync generator supporting SD and HD.
The internal standard is selected by the mean of a push button, with a dedicated LED indicator for each standard.
When an external video signal is present at the sync input of the module, the standard will be selected automatically and the external sync LED indicator will light up.
RCA sync I/O at the rear of the module.
Supports the following standards:
* 576i50 (PAL)
* 480i59.94 (NTSC)
* 576p50
* 480p59.94
* 720p50
* 720p59.94
* 720p60
* 1080i50
* 1080i59.94
* 1080i60
* 1080p23.98
* 1080p24
* 1080p25
* 1080p29.97
* 1080p30
Inputs:
- 0-1V RGB, 100k ohm, jack
- 0-700mV Sync in, 75 ohm, RCA (rear)
Outputs:
- 0-700mV YPbPr/CVBS, 75 ohm, RCA
- 0-700mV S-Video, 75 ohm, Mini Din-4
- 0-700mV Sync out, 75 ohm, RCA (rear)
Specs:
- 8HP
- 130mA +12V
- 0mA -12V
- 0mA +5V
- 42mm deep
Can be powered through standard Eurorack 16pin connector or DC barrel connector.

Had an amazing time in Oregon!
Thanks to everyone involved in making Video Sync 2025 happen, it’s a rare occurrence to be surrounded by so many great video artists and toolmakers.
Spent some extra time there to complete most of the side quests available like visiting the Tektronix Museum, hiking in Mount Hood and Hamilton Mountain trail.
As always, some pictures processed through the modular synth in 1080p30, with Entrée, Isohélie, Solaire, Cadrans and Sortie.
I’ll post about Sortie really soon, production is done, first pre-orders will ship in the next days, currently working on the documentation.
Regarding US orders, unfortunately had to raise the shipping fees as French national post stopped their services for the time being, so all orders will now ship with UPS.

Made it back from the mountains ⛰️
As usual, pictures from the trip processed in analog, using CBV001, Détail and Stable (which are still available as a limited bundle).
Recorded in Composite PAL/576i50.

Going offline for the next week, trading video synthesis for photosynthesis in the French Alps ☀️
Orders will start shipping again on July 21st, and I’ll catch up with emails and dm at the same time.
STVC bundles are running low, so if you were interested in getting one, don’t wait.
Keep patching and see you soon!
