DYNAMICS
Picture of the Dannysound Dynamics module. It has a 12 HP anodized grey metal panel with blue print. From the top going from left to right it has 2 rows of 3 small Rogan knobs in a line for compression / expansion amount, initial level and EQ treble. The next row are attack, release and EQ middle. There is another 2 rows again with 2 smaller pots for sub bass and amplifier drive and a Rogan knob for EQ bass. The last row is for input gain, mix and and Rogan knob for exciter amount. All knobs are black apart from the EQ section and exciter which form a column down the right side which are white with filled blue print background making a nice contrast. There are 3 pushbutton switches for sub bass boost, bypass and exciter bandwidth. There are 7 sockets on the bottom for envelope in, envelope out, EQ in, input, sidechain in, compressor / expander out and EQ out.
Description

New Skiff-Friendly Slimmer Design!

The Tobinski Dynamics is a versatile Eurorack module combining a compressor/expander, sub bass enhancer, 3-band inductor-based EQ, and a harmonic exciter. Originally designed to process drums, its flexibility makes it suitable for a wide range of applications.

Key Features

· Compressor/Expander:
The dynamics section employs a discrete transistor-based circuit capable of soft clipping when overdriven. Using a feedforward envelope detector, this design ensures fast attack times by processing the signal before compression.

· Sub Bass Enhancer:
Features its own compression circuit to “duck” the initial transient, allowing sub bass frequencies to be amplified without introducing distortion. This results in enhanced low-end presence and higher overall levels.

· 3-Band Inductor-Based EQ:
The LCR EQ design provides a rich, characterful tone with a charming analog warmth. When pushed, it imparts a pleasant "bite" to the sound. The controls are subtle at lower settings but become more pronounced as they are increased.

· Harmonic Exciter:
Adds a touch of distortion to high frequencies, bringing out the sparkle of cymbals or the snap of snare drums. A switch toggles between Low Band (ideal for snare snap) and High Band (perfect for cymbal sparkle).

Additional Functionality

· Sidechain Input and External Control:
Includes inputs for sidechain compression and external envelope control, along with an envelope output to drive other modules.

· Modular Versatility:
Features separate inputs and outputs for the Compressor/Expander and EQ sections, allowing them to be used independently as two distinct modules.

· Mix Control:
Blend the unprocessed signal with the processed output for precise control over the final sound.

The Tobinski Dynamics delivers a comprehensive set of tools for dynamic shaping and tonal enhancement, all in a newly redesigned, skiff-friendly form factor. Whether used for subtle tonal adjustments or transformative sound shaping, it’s a powerful addition to any Eurorack setup.
