News from the Labs

Wildfire Laboratories Intravitreal
16 Mar 2024 Wildfire Laboratories
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R77KxkZr1u0 The “long-awaited” next entry in our line of truly adversarial modules, the WL-0202 “INTRAVITREAL” is a bank of 10 ultra-bright white LEDs (light-emitting diodes), designed to make the user’s modular system entirely impossible to use. 
Wildfire Laboratories Sovereign 2.0
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVsaULeMgfg Sovereign is a DTMF audio mangler / ring mod / chaotic audio generator DTMF based off a DTMF (dial tone multi-frequency) tone decoder IC by Phillips Semiconductors. This new version adds a hi / low RANGE SWITCH, a very weird FEEDBACK LOOP, TUNE CV ATTENUATION, and GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS AND UPDATES in a DESIREABLE 6HP PACKAGE.

15 Dec 2023 Wildfire Laboratories
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPXjCQuWPzQ We're violently excited to announce that we'll be returning in 2024. New site, all modules and PCBs available, a new + updated version of our flagship DTMF mangler, the Sovereign, and (as always) new devices prepped for release this year. Thank you so much for sticking with us. It means the world. Let's burn it all down together.  
Wildfire Laboratories Weird Vector
We have a new passive module out now, called "Weird Vector". Weird Vector is an exploration into how many awful sounds we could wring out of an entirely passive circuit. Semiconductors (specifically transistors) are generally powered by a constant voltage source. However, interesting effects and utilities can be derived when used passively.  
Wildfire Laboratories Rusty Hum
19 Jan 2022 Wildfire Laboratories
Rusty Hum is an electret condenser microphone module for explorations in room tone and feedback in the vein of the late Alvin Lucier, Masonna, and others. The small microphone is exposed to the outside world (albeit behind a mesh screen for protection) and introduces external sounds directly into the modular format. It features vactrol control of the microphone's level for CV-controlled room feedback or tremolo effects on the incoming audio.
