Manis Iteritas Alia
$385

Gross, gritty, and dark industrial-strength voice on a swappable oscillator platform. Pangolin approved.

Manis Iteritas Alia is a voice based on the architecture of Basimilus. It was designed to be more gritty and aggressive by using only sawtooth waves that are manipulated, modulated, and distorted through a rethought interface. Manis Iteritas Alia is suitable for leads, basslines, drums, darkness, detuned madness, or pure mayhem. Plus, MIA’s dedicated envelope output is a great modulation source for the rest of your patch.

MIA is available on our 10HP Alia oscillator platform. Buy an Alia module and use the included USB cable to connect to the Firmware Swap app and check out any other Alia firmware, free of charge, any time. More info can be found on the World of Alia page here. Hotswappable overlays are also coming soon, too, so you can easily panel your module to match your firmware, no assembly required.

No pangolins were harmed in the making of this module, but a portion of the proceeds from every Manis Iteritas Alia sold goes to pangolin conservation. (Check out Savepangolins.org to adopt a pangolin. At least nominally adopt one. They do not make good pets.)

Manis Iteritas Alia is the successor to the original Manis Iteritas. It was developed to sound nearly identical, with added features and new firmware-swapping capabilities.

    The variety of rhythmic and tonal textures possible with Manis is so immeasureable no one until now has even bothered to measure it. And it’s still not possible, so vast is its reach.

    The ebb and flow of the abyss cradles me softly across its depths. There is no vessel, only the wavering surface tension. It whispers playful hushed musings to me with a harsh crackle in its voice. I close my eyes as it swoons and bellows its plea. I accept and submerge into the depths. The void is a place of serenity. I am home.

    MI is super fun to modulate with the extreme range of tones it's capable of. I like to use it to make lead lines, aggressive basses and zappy snares - anything that needs some nice bite to it.
