Pittsburgh Modular - the brainchild of synthesis scion Richard "Ricky Pitts" Nicol - kicked off 2023 with a voltaic flagship module that sees Ricky’s 10-plus years of cutting-edge development on full display: the Taiga. Over the following year, Ricky and his team crafted an unexpected yet welcome expansion to the sonic prowess of the Tagia’s 3-oscillator paraphonic power with the Taiga Keyboard. Outfitted with 37 full-sized, velocity-sensitive, and aftertouch-enabled keys, this synthesizer redux was engineered for virtually limitless expressive possibilities, complementing its keybed with a Modular Expansion Bay that provides 24HP of powered space for Eurorack modules of your choosing.

    I was thinking a Cylonix Shapeshifter or even a LXR-02 drum module, but both won’t fit. 😢But there’s a universe of eurorack opportunities to chose from so it’s not a deal breaker. A bunch of 2hp modules would be fun but I wonder how many connections are available.

    @@MySilver5oh ...The Cylonix was my first idea and i agree with your estimation...so it could be nice to install a Q-Bit Nebulae or a Makenoise Morphagene maybe ? The very interest of this system is that you're not forced to travel with a whole modular case, you can just go out for a WE with just a secondary bag containing about 4 or 5 modules that you can change when youy want ! ;-)

    Endorphines Ghost , sequencer, or a 1010music bluebox for recording, if this has enough amps on the 5V rail... (I checked section 16.2 in the manual, and it doesn't list the modular power supply specs, so could you please tell me how many milliamps the 5V rail is getting?)

    Nice! I have a question: I'm new to the modular (semi mod) game. Could also put let's say a Behringer Victor (wavetable synth) into these slots and therefore extend the sound engine? Thanks!

    I have the original Taiga desktop, and I can say that you can send pitch and gate out from it, and received audio back into it. I have combined it with another synth voice in that way. I don't know the Behringer Victor in any detail, but from looking at a picture I'm pretty sure that it would be fine too. And, with the Taiga Keyboard, you could slot it right into the body of the synth and use it from there.

    Im new into Semi-Modular and only have the Moog Mavis, and i'm stuck between getting either the non-keys Taiga or a used GrandMother next. Even though Mavis already has a wave-folder, I want to dip my toes into west-coast synthesis even more and have the unique Taiga sound. Though it's hard to decide because the GrandMother has all the "Moogy goodness".
