RYK Modular – Envy Machine
Product number:
100954
Product information "RYK Modular – Envy Machine"
ENVY MACHINE is a compact modulation powerhouse with four independent channels, each offering a wide range of modulation options. From envelopes and LFOs to random voltages and unique knob recording, ENVY MACHINE delivers remarkable flexibility in a small Eurorack format.
Each of the four modulation channels operates in one of five versatile modes:
• ADSR Envelope
• AD Envelope
• AD LFO
• Random Voltage Generator
• Recordable Knob Movement
Knob Recording lets you manually animate parameters, capturing expressive modulations to add life and dynamics to your patches.
Each channel includes its own dedicated MOD input, enabling external CV control over parameters such as time, level, waveform shape and more.
Both inputs and outputs feature bipolar attenuverters, allowing smooth transitions between unipolar and bipolar signals with precise modulation depth control.
Shape your modulation curves with continuously adjustable waveforms that morph seamlessly between LOG, EXPO, SINE, TRAPEZOID, and SQUARE.
Technical Specifications:
TIME
• Envelopes: 1.5 ms – 4 min
• LFO: 88 Hz – 7 min cycle
• Random: 2 kHz – 2 min
OUTPUT VOLTAGE RANGE
• Envelopes: 0 V to 8 V (inverted: 8 V to 0 V)
• LFO/Random: 0 V to 8 V (Unipolar) or -5 V to +5 V (Bipolar)
INPUT VOLTAGE RANGE
• -5 V to +5 V
Features:
• 4 modulation channels, each with 5 selectable modes
• Knob Recording (“Ghost Hand”) for expressive, animated modulations
• Dedicated external CV modulation input per channel
• Bipolar attenuverters on all inputs and outputs for flexible polarity control
• Smoothly variable waveshapes: LOG, EXPO, SINE, TRAPEZOID, SQUARE
• Compact, intuitive Eurorack design – ideal for both performance and studio use
DIY-Kit-Type:
SMD-Kit-1. This is a Do-It-Yourself kit, not an assembled module. The kit includes all parts to build the module. All SMD parts are pre-soldered, only trough-hole parts to solder. For build guide, more info, videos etc. please check the buttons below.

Product Safety Information
Eurorack DIY Kits
Important Notice & Intended Use
Please read this safety guide before installation or use. This kit is intended for adult users experienced in electronics and modular synthesis. Assembly, including soldering, is required. Proper testing and installation are essential to ensure safe and functional operation. The completed module is intended for installation in a Eurorack-compatible synthesizer system powered by ±12V and +5V.
General Warnings
1. Electrical Hazards:
• Ensure the power supply matches the module’s specified voltage and current ratings (refer to the product manual). Incorrect voltage can damage the module and pose a safety risk.
• Never connect or disconnect the module while the Eurorack system is powered on.
• Wrong polarity can damage your module or system. Make sure the module is connected with correct polarity.
2. Heat Generation:
• The module may generate heat during operation. Ensure proper ventilation within your Eurorack case to prevent overheating.
3. Sharp Edges:
• The module’s faceplate and components may have sharp edges. Handle with care to avoid cuts or scratches.
4. Small Parts:
• Contains small parts that could cause a choking hazard. Keep away from children and pets.
5. Compatibility:
• This module is designed specifically for Eurorack-compatible systems. Connecting it to non-compatible systems may result in damage or malfunction.
Assembly Requirements
• Soldering skills are required to complete the module.
• Ensure a clean, well-lit and ventilated workspace free of flammable materials during assembly.
• Use appropriate tools and safety equipment, such as eye protection.
Testing
• Test the module thoroughly for shorts or incorrect assembly before powering it in your Eurorack system. When the unit has malfunctions due to incorrect assembly, the entire Eurorack system might be damaged. It's a good idea to test it in a separate case with only that single module.
• Use a multimeter or other appropriate tools to confirm proper functionality.
Installation and Use
• Mount securely in a Eurorack case using the provided screws.
• Use only the included or manufacturer-recommended power cable.
• Connect only when the power is off.
• Follow the module's user guide for instructions on operation. Do not exceed the input/output limits specified.
Responsibility
Users are solely responsible for proper assembly and testing. Contact manufacturer support for assistance if needed.
Environmental Safety
• Dispose of the module, its components, and packaging in accordance with local electronic waste regulations.
Liability Disclaimer
• The manufacturer or distributor is not responsible for any injury, damage, or malfunction resulting from improper installation, use, or modification of this product.

Manufacturer "RYK Modular"
RYK Modular was formed in 2009 and released its first module the M185 sequencer in the Roland System 100m format.
The M185 was licensed to Intellijel who based their popular Metropolis and Metropolix sequencers on its design.
We have since developed the M185 in Eurorack format, featuring more advanced stage gate controls, and also the ability to split sequences in half.
Our latest module, Vector Wave, is a compact Eurorack stereo polyphonic synth voice, using FM and Vector synthesis.
We have also released a new module for the Roland System 100m format, the M175 Triple Resonator.
