Looking to squeeze big, wild oscillator tones into a tiny Eurorack space? Teia Synthesizers’ RipWave is a fresh 6HP analog VCO that uses a single “Transform” knob to twist its core triangle, sine, saw and pulse waves through saturation, wavefolding, PWM and harmonic morphing.
Dial in instantly mangled sounds without juggling a half-dozen controls—and if you crave modulation, the Transform knob is voltage-controllable (with built-in attenuverter), so you can patch in CV for dynamic, evolving textures.
Under the hood you still get the essentials: coarse and fine tuning, octave slider (which doubles as an LFO switch), linear FM input and hard sync. Modern temperature compensation keeps tuning locked in, even when the studio heats up. At $239/195€ (+VAT), RipWave could be the go-to mini-oscillator for compact rigs or for anyone wanting instant character without a flagship price tag.

About Me
Hi, I’m Canoy Dang. I grew up in Granada and now living in Málaga, in the south of Spain. Sound has always played a central role in my life — from early home recordings to the deeper, ongoing exploration of the modular synth world. Modular, semi-modular, and desktop synthesizers have become my main tools for expression, experimentation, and sometimes, simply for getting lost in the process.
