- Oscillators: 1 oscillator (square, triangle) plus sub-oscillator on the Acid V and 9 VCOs, noise on the Modular V3.
- Filter: Resonant low-pass on the Acid V and 3 filter slots (24 dB ladder low-pass and others) plus 14-band fixed filter bank on the Modular V3.
- Sequencer: 64-step polymetric sequencer with slide, accent and pattern generation on the Acid V and 24-step sequencer on the Modular V3.
