ADDAC System ADDAC112 VC Looper & Granular Processor (2021)
The ADDAC112 is a dual-panel Eurorack module that combines a looper with a granular processor. ADDAC System announced it in January 2021 as their first new module of that year. It was unveiled at NAMM 2021 and began shipping in late March at a price of €540 (per Gearspace), though the manufacturer's own site later listed it at 680€. The split-panel layout is the obvious physical feature. All the controls live on one panel, and every jack input and output sits on a separate, movable patch bay panel. The idea is to keep your hands clear of the cables while you play. Perfect Circuit described it as "ADDAC's take on granular synthesis, taking the concept in a new direction with comprehensive sound manipulation."
The looper records stereo audio at 16-bit/44.1kHz, with a five-minute recording buffer per loop stored to an included SD card. The long buffer was intentional. ADDAC System noted that the generous length allows "softer" approaches to granular processing, so the module can work as an effect anywhere from subtle stutters to extreme transformation of incoming audio. Granular parameters get extensive voltage control. Reviewers at the time praised the interface: MusicRadar listed "Excellent screen and UI" among its key features, and both TWICE and Gearjunkies noted that the module is conceptually deep but easy to grasp in operation. It runs 32HP wide with a 13HP expansion panel and 45mm depth.
A portable compact variant, the ADDAC112S and ADDAC112SF, was announced in March 2023.
