Welcome to the niche-y-est of all niche-y eurorack videos. The focus of this video is on tiny differences (or not so tiny) between opamps (operational amplifiers) in the Hungry Rat distortion, a 2hp module made by Modular for the Masses and inspired by the ProCo Rat.
To be fair, you'll still get a good intro to the Hungry Rat, which is a very nice use of 2hp. So if you're not opamp obsessed, skip around and just get the flavor.
If you *are* interested in opamp contributions to the sound, in this video you'll get to hear 4 different options. The "bog standard" TL072, which everybody uses for everything; the TLC2262, which I gather is "special"; the NE5532P; and the B072A.
VCO is a Doepfer A-111 sequenced by Intellijel Metropolix.
