Description
In stock!
CBV001 is a circuit bent video enhancer meant to process Composite video. It generates effects ranging from soft color shifts to heavy distortion, with a CV input and attenuator allowing to control the contrast with an external control voltage.
NTSC/PAL compatible.
Assembled and tested module, housed in a 3D printed enclosure, comes with a universal 12VDC/500mA power supply.

Recorded in Composite NTSC 480i59.94
For the next couple weeks, I’ll be trading LED and LCD ligthing for true analog lighting (the sun). So check Syntonie website for the shipping schedule, which will get back to normal after Superbooth on May 14th.

Update on standalone options for CBV001, Stable and Détail: the enclosures are now available separately on Syntonie webshop.
This is mostly to make it easier in terms of keeping things in stock, and so there’s no wait for a specific batch of standalone units to be put together (as long as modules and enclosures are in stock of course).
It can also be a way to offload your modular case by making the module standalone.
Pictures are Détail in its standalone incarnation.
(merci @leon.neon.glow pour les superbes photos!)

First round of Détail has shipped, thanks a lot for the support!
Note that Détail can be made standalone, the enclosure and power supply are now available as a separate listing on Syntonie webshop.
I’ll make a dedicated post about standalone options soon.
Captures above are Détail going into Stable, recorded in Composite PAL 576i50 with Analog to SDI + Video Assist.
Stable adds another layer to the effects Détail achieves like solarization, hue modulation, etc...

Détail is now available through Syntonie website! Some units will be on their way to retailers soon as well.
Inspired by old school video detailers, it is based around a lowpass/highpass filter, which can either soften/blur or enhance/sharpen the incoming video signal. It outputs a fully compliant Composite/Component Y video signal, meaning that the effects it produces can be pushed to the extreme without requiring stabilisation (unlike most analog glitch video devices).
Demo video is up on Youtube (link in bio), and a more in-depth description is available on the webshop listing.
Specs:
- 12HP
- 200mA +12V
- 0mA -12V
- 0mA +5V
- 42mm deep
Can be powered through standard Eurorack 16pin connector or DC barrel connector.

On May 8th to 10th, Syntonie will be back at @superbooth_berlin (booth W201)!
Unveiling Détail: a new video processor, used to create the video above.
We’ll have the full Syntonie line up of video synthesis and processing modules for you to try as well!
Looking forward!

It took me ages, but it’s finally there! The videosynth/rutt-etra vectorsynth. It’s not the build itself that took so long, but troubleshooting the essential modules was a true horror. But: it works! (Sort of... that empty 4hp is for my finger to touch the crystals of the RGB encoder to kickstart the machine...).
A modular seems to be never finished, but this certainly looks like one stage of it has been completed. Now let’s see how this thing works...

Just came back from Berlin, remembered to take photos this time, here processed with CBV001, Stable and Détail, recorded in Composite PAL/576i50.
I had great time, it was nice to do visuals at @synthmuseumberlin for @robinburkeberlin audio performance, with an amazing opening act of @fl.o_flo!
Thanks to @schneidersladen and @cinema.av for having me doing a workshop, and to everyone who attended to hear me rambling about analog video!
See you again in ~6 weeks for @superbooth_berlin !
(Now that I’m back, production of Détail will start soon, ETA: end of April)

My prize showed up today from sleepycircuits video contest 🙌 Lovely Sleepy Circuits tee and a htp.syntonie #cbv001 circuit-bent video enhancer module. Already gave it my standard color coding treatment. 💖 Will be some time before I get my house back in order and can test this out, but I guarantee the very first thing I`m gonna say when I run a signal into it is "ENHANCE!" 🤣

Done with Détail and CBV001.
Captured in Composite PAL/576i50 with Black Magic Analog to SDI + Decklink Duo 2. Recorded in Media Express, deinterlaced and scaled in DaVinci Resolve.

Experimenting with Détail low-pass/blur mode.
The external video (a still extracted from Takeshi Kitano’s Hanabi) is processed through Détail first, then going through Stable for the solarization effect and color boost. The frequency of Détail low-pass filter, defining how much blur is applied to the source video, is controlled using luma and/or shapes from Rampes, going through Seuils to generate hard keys, allowing to blur only some parts of the frame.
Here, Détail only filters the luma/black and white information, so the colors remain, and are further boosted with Stable. Some glitch devices like CBV001 can do some low-pass filtering as well, but result in a loss of the colors most of the time.
Source video was rotated 90° and rotated back after recording, so the horizontal lines created by the blurring becomes vertical. Recorded in Composite PAL/576i50, using BM Analog to SDI + Decklink Duo 2.
