WMD declares Skorpion wavefolder done, opens preorders
September 5, 2025 · 1 sources
WMD has declared its Skorpion Waveform Reanimator complete, writing that the 1.10 prototypes arrived and, with minor changes, the module is ready for production. The maker says revision 1.11 is the production version and that preorders close October 8.
The Skorpion is an 8-stage analog wavefolder built around a vector core, with a slider interface and stereo processing. WMD describes it as an "8-stage analog wavefolder that allows you to precisely mangle simple waveforms into complex shapes with a fun, hands on slider interface"1. The maker lists 13 internal modulation sources: a macro envelope, eight threshold LFOs and four CV modulators that normal to the FOLD, SLOPE, SHIFT and SHAPE attenuverters1.
The front panel controls include FOLD, which sets input gain so the signal hits each of the eight thresholds; SLOPE, which sets the baseline rate of the output; SHIFT, a vertical shift; SHAPE, a feedback control with eight sources; and OUTPUT, which crossfades between dry, wet and a stereo wide signal1. A switch selects whether the sliders set thresholds, targets or macro setup parameters, and an EQUALIZE THOLDs switch disables the sliders for equally spaced thresholds1.
"I made too many edits/mistakes in the mid/side matrix and stereoizing circuitry to go straight to production"
WMD lists the module at 20HP, 38mm deep, with +200mA and -160mA power draw, LFO rates from 0.0016Hz to 6Hz, envelope times from 0.05s to 600s and a 240Hz high-pass/low-pass cutoff point1. It is offered with black or silver panels1.
The maker states it is doing a single run by preorder only, and that the run is limited, shipping September to October1. 001.
