Licks Demo Vol.1 | Sprout Modulation

  • 2 days ago
  • 4 min read

Klowra Sprout Modulation just got a major firmware update. Featuring warmer and more fluid Chorus, richer Flanger and Phaser tones, smoother Filter control, a more immersive Rotary sound, plus lower latency and improved dry/wet phase alignment... And that’s just the beginning.


Prism Runner

Dense picking drives the Phaser closely through a chain of shifting highlights and shadows. Strong stereo spread and lively dynamics keep the line energetic while adding a fluid psychedelic refraction.


Note-by-Note Tracking: Closely spaced attacks remain separated; the phase movement follows each note instead of smearing the phrase.


Prismatic Contrast: The spectrum repeatedly turns between low-mid body and a brighter edge, producing an audible refractive sweep.


Wide Motion: The phrase travels across a broad stereo field, then naturally darkens and recedes at the end.



Mercury Dive

The Flanger moves across an evenly paced performance as a steady comb-filter flow. Dark and full-bodied, it catches brief flashes of cold light at resonant peaks, behaving like weighted mercury that continuously bends, gathers, and dives through the stereo field.


Liquid Sweep: Delay-line movement connects each rise and dive in one continuous contour, flowing through every attack without abrupt corners.


Dark Fluidity: Firm low mids give the tone mercury-like density, while high frequencies appear only as cool reflections at resonant peaks.


Stereo Dive: Clear left-right width lets the metallic stream expand, narrow, and descend along two rails—mechanically tense, yet consistently smooth and cohesive.



Spinning Afterglow

The performance unfolds through sparse sustained notes and generous pauses. Rather than becoming a frantic whirl, the Rotary effect leaves a warm afterglow circling each phrase. Pick attacks remain clear, then open into a relaxed, vintage-moving field.


Open Phrasing: Low note density gives every rotary path enough room to complete its motion.


Dynamic Rotation: Each attack retains a strong contour, while the rotating layer follows the natural decay instead of flattening it.


Warm Fade: A full low-mid body and restrained top end let the final section darken like the last turn of a fading light cabinet.



Rainlit Double

The Chorus performance contains many distinct attacks, with doubled voices following each note across a broad field. The first two sections are clear and bright, while the ending softens and darkens like rainy-night lights spreading across water.


Articulate Picking: High attack count never turns into a wall; the doubled layer continues to trace individual notes.


Wide Reflection: Strong left-right separation turns the clean line into two following trails, creating the broadest Chorus image of the two volumes.


Soft Landing: Ample dynamics allow both brightness and level to fall together, drawing the wide chorus into a quiet ending.



Oblique Lullaby

This Ring clip avoids harsh noise. Sparse melodic notes carry warm, dark shadows with a slight inharmonic tilt. The original contour remains recognizable, while the mechanical color stays controlled, creating a calm but subtly unfamiliar mood.


Sparse Melody: Long spaces between notes allow sidebands to emerge without building into clutter.


Low-Frequency Weight: The tone is dark and solid; its metallic quality resembles a distant bell rather than exposed circuitry.


Intimate Field: A relatively focused image and natural dynamics keep the altered layer close to the performance, forming a gentle, uneasy harmony.



White Current

This Filter clip contains almost no separate pick attacks. Its main body is a continuous, stable, bright broadband stream. Filter movement dissolves into fine noise, sounding more like electrified air than a conventional guitar phrase.


Continuous Body: Level remains exceptionally steady, with very few attacks interrupting the long line.


Bright Bandwidth: Strong high-frequency and noise content creates a cold-white, open electronic texture.


Gradual Scan: The filter changes density slowly across a wide stereo field, making the sound useful for transitions, beds, and experimental atmosphere.



Brown Velvet

This is the darkest and heaviest tone in Vol1. Sparse sustained notes are wrapped in deep Univibe movement, with the top end heavily restrained. The result feels filtered through an old cabinet and thick cloth, carrying a rich vintage-blues mood.


Dark Core: Energy centers on the low mids, with rounded fundamentals outweighing bright edges.


Deep Breathing: Pronounced light-and-dark movement makes the Univibe the engine of each sustained note, not a decorative layer.


Dynamic Space: Widely spaced attacks preserve clear level changes; the middle briefly brightens before sinking again like slowly folding brown velvet.



Fading Constellation

Multi-CH expands mid-slow picking into a cluster of closely spaced doubled lights. The first two sections retain brightness and body, while the ending darkens noticeably, like a constellation receding after the final phrase.


Ensemble Body: Multiple voices thicken single notes without scattering the image; the center remains stable.


Relaxed Pace: Moderate attack density leaves room to hear small pitch offsets and motion between the voices.


Dimming Trail: High frequencies and level fall toward the end, giving the chorus layer a natural, narrative fade into distance.



Electric Beacon

The clip is built around sustained sound, crossed by a clearly periodic Tremolo pulse at roughly three cycles per second. A bright, slightly noisy spectrum flashes steadily across a wide field like an electronic beacon transmitting rhythm.


Stable Strobe: The amplitude cycle remains strong and even throughout the performance.


Bright Texture: Abundant high-frequency energy and fine grain make every opening and closing feel like a white flash.


Wide Sustain: Pronounced stereo spread stretches a small number of attacks into a continuous band of rhythmic light.
