Metamyther Unleashes the Door: Stereo Chaos from Jasmine & Olive Trees

Door isn’t your grandma’s low-pass gate. Jasmine & Olive Trees have crammed a stereo LPG into a slim panel and then spiced it up with features for the noisemakers and the brave. You get your usual frequency, resonance, and decay, but there’s a timbre knob that drives a saturating wave folder—like chucking your signal into a toaster and pulling it out crunchy.

Both channels run a little different under the hood, so you get a natural width even before you start playing stereo games. If you’re tired of boring mono filters pretending to be stereo, this is the real deal: two actual filters, ready to chew up your signals. The result? A module that’s less polite utility, more sonic street weapon—Metamyther’s taste for cinematic industrial grit fits perfectly here.

Forget the screwdriver Olympics—Door’s firmware swaps are as easy as placing an overlay on top. Jasmine & Olive Trees have made it so you don’t need to power down, unscrew, or curse at USB cables. Just slap the new overlay on, and the sensors on the back handle the rest. That’s the kind of workflow hack I wish more makers would nick.

For live sets, you can lock the firmware when a CV cable’s in, so it won’t switch mid-rave. There’s even a way to lock it at startup if you’re the paranoid type. This is hot-swapping done right: fast, clever, and way less likely to end in tears—or lost screws.

Metamyther doesn’t mess around—he gets straight to the grit. With no trigger, Door acts as a proper filter, but twist the decay knob and suddenly you’re controlling bias in the feedback loop. What does that mean? You dial in asymmetric clipping and adjust the module’s trademark growl. The result: sounds that go from velvet to rusty chainsaw in a couple of turns.

Patches run the gamut from subtle to absolutely savage. High notes decay fast, low notes linger like a hangover, and the timbre knob adds dirt wherever you want it. You’ll want to catch the video for the full barrage—words don’t do justice to the filter’s bite.
