Description

The UDO Audio RBN-1C receiver is a dedicated Eurorack module designed to unlock expressive, ribbon-based control for modular systems. This 6HP unit features a rugged aluminum front panel and a shallow 1.3" depth for easy placement in compact cases. A 3.5 mm TRS connection links directly to the RBN-1 ribbon controller, providing precise touch response with adjustable octave scaling. Dual CV and gate outputs allow separate modulation with each hand, while a built-in live looper records and replays ribbon gestures triggered from an external source. Output protection, LED feedback and customizable ribbon behavior ensure reliable performance on stage or in the studio.

Gesture-Driven Control for Modular Performance

With the RBN-1C, modular users gain a more expressive alternative to traditional knobs and sliders. Dual CV/gate outputs let performers shape pitch, filter movement or modulation depth through simple gestures, from subtle pressure to sweeping glides. The onboard live looper captures touch movements and layers them back into a patch, turning improvised gestures into evolving performance sequences. Sturdy build quality and flexible ribbon response settings keep control consistent and predictable, making the RBN-1C a powerful tool for players who want tactile, real-time expression within the Eurorack format.
