Acknowledgements
This work would not be possible without all of the companies that have contributed. For upcoming works, please also see the Upcoming Work page for information on what modules are on the list. I will always give priority to companies who provide modules at a discount and/or free of charge in recognition of all the work and effort invested.
BlaknBlu
Special thanks to adam for contributing these modules. They were a lot of fun to document. The Oscar specifically shows a workflow for complex modules with a lot of features under the hood.
Erica Synths
I’ve had some great conversations with Erica Synths, and am sure many more are to come. They’ve contributed the following modules to this project free of charge, and are also answering questions as needed in the documentation process and effort:
Hermetic Modular
Luke has been great to talk to, apart from making an incredible module that I’m truly excited about. When I reached out about accessibility, he sent me documents he wrote himself with lots of notes and descriptions. On top of this work, he’s been open to design/other accessibility features. The following documents were provided by Hermetic Modular:
Noise Engineering
Everyone I’ve communicated with at Noise Engineering has been incredible, and they clearly want to make an effort toward accessibility. We have collaborated on documentation; they took an example format for one module and did some amazing work in documenting all of their modules. I cannot thank them enough for their time and effort.
Strymon
Strymon were the first company to provide modules for documentation. I appreciate their generosity and trust in helping this project get a start. They have contributed the following eurorack modules:
Tall Dog Electronics
Dan has been really cool to chat with, and was excited about this project. He very kindly provided a module for documentation, and has already helped in ideas and information for other documents as well.
WMD
WMD will be featured on the upcoming works page, but I want to shout them out in particular again for converting their documentation to an accessible format. They’ve also invested a lot of effort into answering a million questions, taking feature requests for future firmwares, and in adding descriptive alt text to images in their manuals to make sure that everyone can access the data presented.
This is one of the most in-depth collaborations I’ve had to date with a company around modular accessibility, and it was a fun challenge to work with WMD. As you might imagine, the sequencer is often one of the most complex modules to document. They provided a lot of information in their manuals and for the documentation found on this site.
When I initially asked them about the accessibility of their sequencer, I was new to modular. I had a Moog studio and was struggling with the sequencing options on the Mother32, and wasn’t sure if this would be a viable investment for me. There was minimal documentation for sequencers discussing accessibility. Much to my surprise, William responded with a really in-depth description of how I could use the sequencer and described a lot of the UX and functionality; I read this email about 15 different times as I created my first ever patch and started sequencing.
WMD have provided the following modules for testing and documentation:
