Request for the wishlist: a port to VCV rack, please. If it's something within reason. No expectation, just a wish. (Ochd in vcv was the perfect gateway taste that sold me on buying the hardware when it was time to build a real rack) This seems like the kind of module that folks could become very used to using in vcv, and wanting a hardware version because they've become very familiar with it. That's how I ended up using Rampages instead of Maths.
My immoderate taste for colored LEDs on modules is delighted by this surprising DivSkip. The simultaneous multiplicity of rhythmic treatments in a single module is an opportunity I hadn't expected, which led me to buy a few years ago a grouping of modules that integrates all these possibilities, Bernoulli gates, Euclidean rhythms, probability skippers, dividers, XOX programming, all CV controlled, but occupying a rather substantial amount of hp space for a dozen channels. So, temptation is great, 8 hp and all those little multicolored LEDs running all over the place are joyfully attractive. Well done to the ingenious engineers and clever musicians behind the project.
Powerhouse is right. I love that a new user of eurorack could get this and be lost in it for months without hitting a wall. It’s so deep yet so fast to get results. The branches mode alone is incredible. Let alone the fact you get a grids, Turing and Euclidean pattern generator. Total class. Great programming and the dials are just mint!!
Even just in the first mode, this is awesome. Love the fact that it is available as a reasonably priced DIY kit. Will almost certainly be included in my next Thonk purchase
The first mode was what kicked it all off with the original design a long way back. Though it lacked the B output, Bernoulli operation it was a muting probability skipper with CV over probability. It's developed a lot since then, but I'm still very happy with it just in any one of the modes.
Whooowa what!? Did you just take Branches + Grids + Dot + Burst into outer space?? What an incredible complement of features AND that beautiful LED feedback AND that very intuitive/fun to play with one touch knob action... Well done mate and thank you very much! I'll be ordering one quicker than you can type DivSynk
I love it. Congrats on another DivKid module. It looks beautiful and super handy. Rhythm heads will no doubt find its patterning, ratchets, bursts, randomized patterning, ridiculous amount of outputs, and its mute functionality and switching between two mute states to be totally sick.🔥
Man I was on the way to developing something very similar after the Labyrinth dropped, although mine was only going to be Turing and Euclidean and nowhere near as featured as yours, excellent job! Guess I’ll figure out something else to do with those 16 segment leds now, they are waay too big a diameter, your solution is much more hp friendly and super nicely packaged
Just wanted to mention that your Patchwerks affiliate link is broken and they don’t seem to have them available on their site yet. Love your work and thank you for bringing your amazing creative ideas for eurorack modules to fruition!
Hello, thanks for that I think they've removed that program while they've been struggling to keep things going. They didn't take any stock of the DivSkip. For the US Nightlife Electronics and Perfect Circuit have them.
My favorite DivKid raise the barre ,- Congratz Ben - This reminds me of the Trinity from Bastl , with a Euclidian Circles , to go - Looks effing fsntastic,-
Such a great module! I think the only thing that i might find a little annoying in use is the need to wait 3 seconds to reset. A dedicated reset jack would have been great for live use without needing to stop the flow. Conversely, if you get a really cool rhythm going it could be annoying to lose that rhythm if you need to stop jamming for whatever reason
That looks awesome. Pretty unbelievable value if you diy it! Just last night I was getting frustrated with the t side of marbles, could this be the answer? Would love to see some more on the gate mode driving melodic patches.
I had one other question: is there any swing specific setting? Some of the polymeter stuff had that feel, but it's there any specific swing adjustment?
No swing, everything is driven by the trigger inputs it doesn't deal with clocking or tempo itself. So drive it with a swung clock and it swings. I was using the Stolperbeats to drive it a lot of the time.
DivSync! Is there some way to configure one of the CV inputs as a global reset? Auto reset is cool too, but tweaking during a set I could see needing to be able to send a reset without stopping the flow of a performance.
During a live set and working perfomatively I'll mute the triggers (often just a singular clock to trigger in 1 that normals across) and then it auto resets. So if I hit a moment of say not having beats but my main clock is still running for a synth line I can just mute the clock and it's all ready to come back in again.
@@DivKid That can work in some situations, for sure. For me it's not really ideal for a rhythmic module to have to turn off for three seconds in order to sync up with the rest of a system. Auto-reset also makes long-duration events kind of difficult to work with. From reading the manual, the three-second auto-reset is evaluated per-channel. That means for example if I send a low probability trig from channel 1 to channel 2, channel 2 will reset if the incoming ch1 trig takes longer than 3 seconds to arrive? It seems the module's really designed for fast incoming trigs, and not events that might have a long duration between them. Being able to disable auto-reset and use a panel input for reset would open up these other kinds of uses. Still an awesome module! Just will require some workarounds to use it how I'd like to.
Yes they are, it's not doing swing/groove stuff like say Stolperbeats. You can drive it from any source though (doesn't have to be a steady clock) to work swing and groove into the patterns. A trigger just moves it 1 step forward in the pattern.
Bought one as this is very playable for live/improv situations. Not a fan of wobbly knobs though but at least its not as bad as the one I got from Error Instruments
I’ve just been revisiting 4 brooks Rick , and I can see some similarities , can you make this module swing ? alsomcan you program user patterns . Bar that you. Got a great module . I think I’d defo be keen to try .
The doesn't swing as it doesn't generate it's own clock. You drive it with triggers, so anything that swings already, starts and stops, has inherent 'groove' will drive the patterns and be passed on. Throughout the video I'm driving this with a Stolperbeats giving those swung feels.
Hi Mike, no comment on anything but what's on this module. They have some wiggle which will be obvious compared to a panel mounted normal pot. I just didn't want that to be a surprise and wanted to reassure that's normal.
@@DivKidman I’ve watched this video a few times and this module is really impressive. I love that each channel can run in its own mode and the secondary out for the skipped steps is such a simple yet powerful feature. I’m definitely getting one.
@@joakimskurk Oh yeah it looks amazing. I'm just concerned about my ability to integrate it with other modules in my rack and keep it aligned to an external groove, so I'm not sure I can use it without reset!
Not quite, with euclidean circles you get more control on each channel (length, fill and start position). With Turing machine: This doesn't allow you to change step length and randomness independently You also get cv out whereas this just puts out gates. You can clock a sequencer with those as he does in the video but that gives a different effect than generating a new note each time it randomly generates a new gate
Yeah, after actually watching the video instead of just reading the description the limitations become more clear. I quite like the dual length euclidean cycles however.
Thanks to you both for the comments here. In terms of how someone might use those devices, possibly. But it's definitely not as flexible as mentioned. Both euclidean modes here condense the 3 parameters into a single knob turn but both then provide a simple method for doing something different. Euclidean Split giving 2 rhythms both with 3 active triggers but across varying opposing step lengths and euclidean classic cycling through both increasing triggers across increasing step lengths. For the Turing the biggy is no CV generation but then you gain the "off" triggers and have 4 channels of that if you want, or 1 channel and 3 other modes on the others.
A lot of people want to like Grids but it often doesn't give patterns suitable to them (for the record I really like Grids, with other things usually though) so the pattern mode here might give more immediately results.
@7:21 the first channel the pot is fully CCW and 'A' lits up every clock trigger, but the Mordax does not show that on the blue trace... why? Being it cross patched to channel 2 (the red trace), I see it is working... probably a glitch with the Mordax Data?
Yeah groove/swing clocks etc can drive all the modes nicely. I've been sending it some seriously wonky falling over itself stuff out of Stolperbeats and it's taken it well.

Nice one Ben! Not only will this open up 20+ hp in my rig, but I love the playability without having to stare at a small screen. Congrats!
super simple, playable interfacing was a bit goal. Glad it's going to save some HP :)
Nothing less than jaw-dropping. Highly programmable yet wide open to extemporaneous action. Prettiest menu system ever. Stellar work! *DIVSYNC*

That module comes at the right time as I've been contemplating to add a few Bernouli gates to my setup :)
great timing!
This looks killer. I’ve been through most of the esoteric trigger sequences/modifiers and have yet to find the one. This looks promising for sure.
Hope it gives you some great results.
So cool
thank you
Super useful looking module. Definitely need one of these + it lights up like a Xmas tree! 😀
Limited edition DivKid Santa and Christmas tree versions incoming! hahaha
Rhythm management for daysss! Great unit, congratz! Divsync
DivSync! thank you
I made it about 6 minutes before ordering the kit from Thonk... Well done!
enjoy the kit build
LoL, nice
Bro this looks INTENSE, I think I love it.
Nice! This will pair well with.. just about everything! It’s definitely divsycable!
this is absolutely brilliant

you can have two of each function at once!
this module looks like a lot of fun! I will try this for sure!
thank you, I hope it brings some great patterns to your system

Stellar!
Those potentiometers and LED rings are a great design.
A reset input would be useful.
we went with an auto resets, that's shown in the video. Not the same thing I know.
I too often think of multi channel probability skipping modules that are performative.
great minds and all that

Dope! Need 2 lol
Yeah I need another :)
Who makes those stackable cables? I haven't seen that kind before, only the tiptop ones.
They are "STAKKAS" from Tendrils who also make the right angled cables. They licensed them with Tiptop.
@@DivKid Thanks. It's wild that tiptop was able to have control of such a simple technology.
looking forward to the gate mode, but I didn't make it past mode 1 before slamming that order button.
lots to explore and show in future videos, not sure in what order yet but I can chalk a vote for gate mode next :)

⚠️Warning: may cause involuntary booty shaking. Void where prohibited.
haha that's the Stolperbeats driving the clocking. Funky little thing full of feel and flavour.
Was the focus on the customer encoders a comment on push encoders having a reputation for breaking?
Hi Mike, no comment on anything but what's on this module. They have some wiggle which will be obvious compared to a panel mounted normal pot. I just didn't want that to be a surprise and wanted to reassure that's normal.

are the trigger inputs normalled? would be great to use one input to get four different flavours coming out
Yes the four trigger inputs are normalled.
What's the time for the auto-reset? What is the slowest BPM that can be supported without auto reset kicking in?
Reset time is 3 seconds, so incoming triggers need to be faster than quarter notes at 20 bpm, or 10 bpm 8th notes, or 5 bpm 16th notes and so on.
Hah -- ordered.
thank you, made your rhythms be skippy, euclidean of divided :)
Is there any way at all to send in an explicit reset trigger? I don't see anything like that but it would be so useful!
no reset input just the auto reset function.
@@DivKid ok, super bummer for me! It looks like a great module though!
That is a shame. Cool module, tho! DivKid is on a roll!
@@joakimskurk Oh yeah it looks amazing. I'm just concerned about my ability to integrate it with other modules in my rack and keep it aligned to an external groove, so I'm not sure I can use it without reset!
Agreed it's probably not recommended to do an auto reset in the middle of your live set haha
Damn I need a second job, too many great modules coming out and not enough money to get them😢
The Befaco Burst is definitely a more comprehensive burst if that's the sole focus. This does much more though of course.
oooohhh
live in 10 minutes, excited to share!
