The next Eurorack module from Flame, the Tame Machine looks like a lot of fun:

In addition to being a tap tempo clock source and clock (”beat”) divider, the module will act as a “playable” quantizer via the colored pushbuttons at the top. When not in Quantizer mode, however, they can be used as a mini keyboard for sending note data.

The Tame Machine also has another fun feature- it is possible to record a melody from the mini keyboard and play this in a loop via the record function. So it will essentially record “sequences”, possibly quantized, like the Roland Sh-101.

Pricing and details to come.

This is an overview of the features of the Flame Clockwork Eurorack synthesizer module.

The Flame Clockwork is a shift clock/CV pulse generator for Moogerfoogers, Modular systems, Analog filters, Analog step sequencers etc.

Features/Uses:

• Individual generator for experimental grooves
• Easy sound machine on your analog filter
• Create new patterns with analog steps equencer
• Tool for modular systems and analog synth

In this strange synth jam, the Flame Talking MIDI Synth meets the Radikal Spectralis synthesizer.

The Flame Talking MIDI Synth is a small-sized MIDI-controlled sound module based on the analogue Speakjet chip, produced by the U.S. company Magnevation LLC.

Originally designed for basic artificially generated speech output in American English tongue, it was then refined and further developed as an 8-bit sound module with speech-like sounds and synthetic robot voices as well as beeps, alarms, noise and retro-style sci-fi sounds.

Due to the structure of the Speakjet (with its complex sound synthesizer, preset sounds and serial interface) it offers an impressive range of possibilities. It contains 72 speech elements (allophones), 43 sound effects, and 12 DTM touch tones. The idea was to create sounds, patterns and sequences in the 8-bit style of the 80s or other retro sounds for making music instead of just simulating speech. Most allophones can be tuned and used tonally.

The Flame MIDI Talking Synth contains two Speakjet chips to produce a richer and more complex tonal variety as well as generating a pseudo stereo effect.
