Does what it says on the tin
It's not flashy, it's not beautiful - but is, as is usual for doepfer, a robust good quality build and darned useful little module. Clean sound, no bells and whistles - unless you are making bell and whistle sounds of course, in which case it excels XD
Ideas for uses;
The obvious scifi sounds, feed it detuned or pitch modulated sine oscs and lots of reverb (maybe a199 spring verb).
Split an osc signal with a mult and waveshape and frequency shift one copy and ringmod the two together (beefy sounds here!).

Excellent value dual ring mod with no controls
This ring mod unit provides exceptional value for money, giving you two ring mods for less than the price of what you would expect to pay for one. It provides two inputs (X and Y) and one output (the product of X multiplied by Y) for each ring mod circuit. For example, the classic use for this kind of circuit would be to input an audio signal to X and an LFO wave to Y, giving you an often metallic and mostly atonal product at the output. I would have like to have had some controls on here, maybe just an attenuator on each input since most LFOs don't have built in attenuation. However, I realise that this would have increased the price of the unit. The build quality is great, as you would expect from Doepfer. All in all, it's a no-frills, value for money and extremely useful module which I would recommend to anyone who, like me, has limited space and money for modules.

A Bit of a Dirty Ring
This module does exactly what it says on the tin, giving you two ring mods in a very compact and affordable package.
Sound wise it is a bit on the dirty side and there is some bleed through from the signal connected to the Y inputs to the output.
Ringmods are great when you want to add some weird harmonics to a sound or need an old school sci-fi effect, this works well for both but due its slightly rough sound I would say it is probably better suited to the latter.
Passing the output through a low pass and hitting it with a tight envelope can deliver some interesting percussive sounds.
For the money you can't go wrong. :)

Pleased I have this in my set up.
I had a problem with a pittsburg ring modulator (not purchased from Thomann) so decided to go for doepfer. Unfortunately the pittsburg module just stopped working...never had a problem with any doepfer modules. I am pleased with the purchase adds another dimension to my set up. Sound wise I cant really compare, but I like it..plenty to experiment with.

Drone central
Great little module, Great for rotating pads or drone sounds, 2 triangle oscillators plugged into this, slight offset gives a great pumping sound drone. Module is a real simple setup but produces some great results.
