Felix (fx_b) has released an in-depth video featuring three of the recent Flame modules: the Flame Fire percussion synth, the Ton melody looper, and the Kosmos FM synth. The videos go deep into the modules with various sound demos and patch ideas.

For a quick overview of each module, Flame themselves say the following (via flame-instruments.de):

The Fire Drum Synth drum synthesis module is a "full 8-way polyphonic drum and percussion synthesizer. It offers different digital synthesis algorithms, which can be distributed over 8 channels. The sound engine delivers virtual analog sounds as well as different digital percussion sounds, which are generated with FM or virtual analog synthesis. It is also possible to create simple monophonic bass or synthesizer voices." 

The Ton Melody Looper sequencer/looping module is a "12TE wide Eurorack live sequencer module for creating two note sequences. There are two 1V/octave outputs with GATE/NOTE/VELOCITY. Notes can also be sent via MIDI. Both note tracks are independent of each other and can be used in different octave spreads. In addition to the analog connection, the module has full MIDI functionality. It can be synchronized via analogue clock or via MIDI." (Flame)

The FM Kosmos is an FM synthesis module that is "based on a four-voice FM synthesizer with 6 operators and an integrated multi-effect processor. Each operator contains an ADSR envelope (also loopable), as well as settings for ratio and level. There are 32 algorithms available for the operators. A special feature is that you can morph between two sound variants within an algorithm. The separately adjustable effects are also morphed." 

You can  also find out more about these products on the Flame Instruments website and also find them over at SchneidersLaden.
