Ruina Versio answers the age-old question: how many different types of distortion can
we fit on a single module? The answer is a lot, as it turns out. Need a wavefolder? We
got a wavefolder. Want some multiband distortion? Of course you do! And that's not
even including the DOOM parameter!
We also decided that Smoosh was a parameter we needed in our lives: press it and add
128dB of drive. Yes, you read that right: 128dB. Why have SOME drive when you can
have ALL the drive?
Not only is RV a unique distortion, it's a stereo DSP platform. A simple USB connection
allows you to update RV to a variety of firmwares. Open-source support is available,
too, which allows you to write your own firmware! All info can be found on the
Versio page
here.

Patch Tutorial (cont.) Drum Crusher Use RV to spice up your drum loops: start with Blend at 12:00 and Fold and Doom fully counterclockwise. Start by using Drive, Center, and 8vize to spice things up… and hit Smoosh to add some squish. Past that, try out all the other knobs and settings and really destroy your percussion completely. -
Page 6: Design Notes
Would you believe that 128dB gain on the Smoosh button was a compromise? Ruina Versio is unapologetically digital. It’s 10hp, unlike our small, simple, analog ones we were doing in 2019. But it is, if you will excuse the term, badass and hardcore. It’s more distortion than we’ve ever dreamed of putting together, but it’s more fun than we...
