4ms Company Ensemble Oscillator Module
Unified polyphonic voice of sixteen complex oscillators combining additive, FM, phase-distortion and wavefolding synthesis techniques in new unorthodox ways
The 4ms Company Ensemble Oscillator is a unified polyphonic voice of sixteen complex oscillators combining additive, FM, phase-distortion and wavefolding synthesis techniques in new unorthodox ways. By quantizing the oscillators to scales or series of harmonics, the Ensemble Oscillator allows you to explore the sonic boundary between musical chords and rich evolving textures. Easily create a wide variety of sounds ranging from aggregates of pure sine waves to pulsar synthesis or pristine harmonic tones and lush wide chords to rich dirty drones and rumbling glitches. Custom scales can quickly be “learned” and saved using a CV keyboard or by manually entering notes with the controls.
The Ensemble Oscillator is designed by Matthias Puech and 4ms Company.
Features:
16 sine-based oscillators bound to intervals of a selected Scale
30 factory-programmed, user-writeable scales organized in three groups - 12TET: all notes quantized to equal temperament, repeating over octaves; Octave: unquantized notes, repeating over octaves; Free: unquantized notes, repeating over the interval between the lowest and highest note
A simple method to program (“Learn”) your own scales manually or with a CV/Gate keyboard
Three Twist phase distortion effects
Three Warp wave distortion effects
Three algorithms of Cross FM for modulating the oscillators with each other
Mono or stereo output with selectable panning algorithm
Freeze button and jack to freeze the frequency of some of the oscillators, with selectable algorithm
Two 1V/oct inputs: Pitch (non-quantized), and Root (quantized)
-- High-accuracy, temperature-stable, eight octave range (-2V to +6V), can be calibrated to any keyboard
Six bi-polar CV inputs (-5V to +5V)
Two gate inputs for automated Learning and Freezing
I love this module. Adds chordal textures to your sound. Great purchase.

This module is very deep and capable of everything from chords, drones, and pads... to insane industrial noise and FM-like tones. It’s a unique oscillator in the world of eurorack, and I’m happy I took a chance on it. Excellent quality build too!
There's no doubt that ambient music is currently seeing a resurgence. It could be the well-timed Mort Garson and Laurie Spiegel reissues that piqued interest or even documentaries like Sisters With Transistors. Maybe it's the fact a pandemic effectively canceled band practice for the foreseeable future. Either way, we're here to embrace these soothing sounds.
If you haven't dabbled in the ambient artform, it's incredibly easy and fun to zone out making lush landscapes. Without the need for bandmates, musicians can take their own spin on beat making, sound design, field recording, looping and create something all their own. Today we’re gonna take a look at some of the popular tools that will help you create your own ambient sounds. Continue reading →

In almost 20 years in Pro audio buying, never did I receive a unit so well packed and exactly as described. Works flawlessly. The whole process has been so smooth. I will never hesitate to do business with you guys in the future and will recommend you to everyone I know.

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.

My experience with Vintage King was excellent. The order was here fast considering it was out of stock. The sales person had SKB send it to me directly and I couldn't have been more pleased.
Michael D.
From the minute I placed my order I was kept well-informed through each step in your process. Even though I was buying a comparatively modest piece of gear, your attention to detail made me feel like I was purchasing a six-figure mixing desk.
