Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The RBN-1-C brings UDO’s RBN-1 Ribbon Controller into a Eurorack system through a compact 6HP receiver. Its 3.5 mm TRS ribbon connection feeds two CV and gate output paths with 1V/octave scaling, so each hand can be routed separately within a patch. An externally triggered live looper records and plays back ribbon gestures, while adjustable ribbon behavior, gate LEDs, and output protection keep its operation visible and configurable. At 33 mm deep including its power connector, it is sized for shallow-case planning.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Use with ribbon controllers other than the UDO RBN-1 Ribbon Controller is not supported by the listed compatibility.
