RO’VED 3U — Macro Oscillator (8HP)
 
Plaits, reimagined. 
The most comfortable and intuitive Plaits-based interface in the world — now in a full 3U, 8HP module.
 
RO’VED 3U brings Plum Audio’s redesigned macro-oscillator engine to the classic Eurorack format.
Built on the legendary foundation of Mutable Instruments Plaits, RO’VED 3U elevates the experience with Plum’s exclusive CLICKKNOBS, a clearer layout, improved CV workflow, and full support for the Green, Red, and Orange synthesis banks — each with custom icons on the front panel.
This is Plaits, but more ergonomic, more playable, and more inspiring.
 
A Refined Interface for Deep Exploration
RO’VED 3U features four CLICKKNOBS  multifunction 3-in-1 encoders that act as:
Model selectors
Primary sound controls
Built-in attenuverters for modulation inputs
This interface offers unmatched clarity and immediacy, making RO’VED the easiest and most expressive Plaits-style module to navigate.

Eight bicolor LEDs display model selection with instant visual feedback.
 
Synthesis Models
 
RO’VED 3U includes all 24 synthesis engines:
8 Green (Pitched)
8 Red (Noise & Percussion)
8 Orange (Extended Pitched)
 
8 Green Models — Pitched Synthesis
• Detuned virtual-analog oscillators with variable waveforms
• Triangle oscillator with waveshaping and wavefolding
• 2-operator FM with variable feedback
• Dual-formant synthesis (VOSIM, Pulsar, Grainlet, CZ-style)
• 24-harmonic additive oscillator
• Wavetable oscillator (four banks of 8×8 waves, with or without interpolation)
• Chord generator (divide-down string/organ or wavetable chords)
• Speech synthesis (formant filter, SAM, LPC) with phoneme banks
 
8 Red Models — Noise & Percussion
• Granular saw or sine with variable grain parameters
• Clocked noise processed by a variable-shape resonant filter
• Particle/dust noise processed by resonators or all-pass filters
• Extended Karplus-Strong (Rings “red” mode)
• Modal resonator (Rings “green” mode) excited by mallet or dust
• Analog kick (two variants)
• Analog snare (two variants)
• Analog hi-hat (two variants)
 
8 Orange Models — Extended Pitched Synthesis
• Dual virtual-analog oscillators with a switchable 12dB/24dB resonant filter
• Phase-distortion / phase-modulation oscillator inspired by CZ-style digital synthesis
• 6-operator FM voice with DX7-compatible algorithms and SysEx patch support
• Additional FM variant for metallic, glassy and harmonically complex tones
• Wave-terrain oscillator with smooth interpolation across a 2D morphing surface
• Alternative terrain model allowing dynamic shape selection through modulation
• String-machine / ensemble-style synthesizer with animated stereo chorus
• Four-voice square-wave chords with optional clock-synchronized arpeggiator
 
I/O and Controls
• 4 CLICKKNOBS (model selection, macro control, CV attenuation/inversion)
• 8 bicolor LEDs for model indication
• Frequency knob with 8-octave range
• Three macro parameters: Harmonics, Timbre, Morph
• Attenuverters for all modulation inputs
• Timbre, Morph and FM CV inputs normalized to the internal EG
• V/OCT input (−3V to +7V)
• Trigger input for the internal D-envelope or exciter engines
• Level CV input controlling the internal digital LPG or per-model accent
