Dreadbox has announced a whole new range of Eurorack modules called the White Line.

With high sound and build quality in mind, the White Line range is affordable with prices starting at just €29 and the most expensive modules coming in at €119.

Fans of the Dreadbox Erebus & Murmux synthesizers will be pleased to know that components from both synths make it into the range. There are also several components from an as yet unannounced synth called the Abyss.

Each module is made up of analogue circuits with through hole components and the front panels are made of FR-4 glass epoxy.

The Greek synth-makers are also kean to stress that two modular cases will complete the range. Head on over to the Dreadbox website for more news on that soon.

In the meantime, click through the gallery for more information on each module.

Video Producer & Reviews Editor

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
