Abstract

A method and system for shaping the tone by modular circuit bending and modding of electric and electronic music instruments, audio amplifiers and sound equipment. The design of the system consists of a modding structure of a plurality of inserts, inputs and outputs connections for compatible modules, to reconfigure the electronic circuit without the physical changing of component values and without adding or removing electronic parts of the audio equipment by soldering. A plurality of tone modules for shaping the sound by the intervention into the signal path and a plurality of modules for shaping the tone by other sound design methods that are not part of the signal path are provided. For the modular system, an external device can be used as a multiplier, which consists of a plurality of inserts, inputs and outputs connections for compatible modules also including a plurality of combined series/parallel circuits of freely selectable inputs and outputs for the direct swap of a plurality of modding modules. In addition, switching options are available to control bypass, for advanced series or parallel connections, and for AB testing capabilities. The modular modding system can be used as a standalone device or as an upgrade to existing equipment.
