30 HP Eurorack module running the Beebo module-patching firmware

Hector is a 30 HP Eurorack module from Poly Effects with six audio and CV inputs, eight outputs and MIDI in and out. It runs the same touchscreen firmware as the Beebo pedal, which hosts a library of more than a hundred LV2 modules that are patched together on screen, including sequencers, convolution reverb, a looper, filters, LFOs and oscillator voices. Presets can be swapped with Beebo.

Notes

Hector shares its firmware with the Beebo pedal, so the official UI source and the community Polyscope oscilloscope patch apply to the same code base. Updates are installed from a USB stick; read the install notes on each firmware entry before starting.
