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.
This module is in the "MUST OWN"-category. Bought the kit and I´m in love right now 🙂 It´s freaking awesome. Also got two Mutes and the Output Bus. All rocks.
I bought one so you can pay yourself, Ben. This thing is genius. Super useful and versatile. Born a classic. If you keep going at this pace, we’re gonna be rich!
Wow. I’ve had to order one of these because I can’t take in a fraction of what it does without getting hands-on with it. Stellar job- well done Ben and MSM!
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.
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.
Where do you by all those super-colourful patch cables? They're gayer than christmas and I feel like I'm my 1st form teacher colourcoding all sorts of information for the hard of thinking (which can include a large portion of us, given certain circumstances). This all sounds cryptical and ambigous. Let me elucidate to anyone who reads this; where do you get these pastel coloured patch leads with seemingly optional chainable versions?
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.🔥

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!!
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.
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
Great module! So many amazing modes. Now, my idea for a companion module would be the same type of thing with CV, rather than triggers/gates. Have a bunch of modes, with random, Turing machine mode, Fibonacci sequences, quantized scales, etc, Link them together for the ultimate Marbles combo! Now that would be amazing.
This thing is so dope. Nice job man. If you don’t mind what are you using for your hats cuz they sound sick being triggered by the divskip. Awesome stuff
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.
It was out on the day of release, sold out quickly and re stocks went out to some places with more going out in the coming weeks. I'll add it was offered well ahead of release to many places everywhere, including Australia. Tell the retailers you like to use you're looking to buy one, that's helpful for everyone.
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
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
Clocks or rhythms (you can drive the movement through one Eucldiean rhythm from an already euclidean rhythm on Pam's for example) into DivSkip and also CV out of Pam's with clocked modulation changing probability, clock divisions or patterns over time. They work great together.
@ oh that’s great, thank you, I’m also guessing that DivSkip is very performance oriented, it’s pretty hard to change things on the fly in Pam’s with the menu system
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.
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.
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.
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.
I keep thinking about this module. I’m big into sequencing clock speed. I got a 4ms QCD and a problem I ran into was the module counted trigger inputs so when I modulated the clock speed the modulation wouldn’t happen immediately. It would lag. I got a Moffenzeef Mito which does this very well but it only has a single clock input. Does the Div Skip respond to modulation immediately? I really like how it has a clock input for each channel and I like how it’s not huge. Thanks.
HI Mike, for division this isn't doing any digital, tempo awareness, or tempo learning (so it can multiply) it works like an analogue (why the Mito works well) divider, if takes X triggers in to divide by X. So if you change the rate of those incoming triggers it will respond as it should when it's enough of them. I.e. a divide by 8 will take 8 triggers to the next output. How fast or slow it is changing those rates coming in won't matter, it will take 8 triggers to divide by 8 (for example). Hope that helps.
@@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!
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.
I show the pattern mode in the video and highlight that each one is different. Channel 1 focuses on kick and snare rhythms, channel 2 closed and open hi hats, channel 3 two percussion lines and channel 4 is another hi hat set. For the rest of the modes each channel is identical and you can select different modes on different channels.
Having a problem with this which I can’t figure out. I have being using mutable grids as the master clock in my drum case. If I clock divskip with mutable marbles, all works as expected, either from marbles master clock or trigger outs. However, when I try to clock it with mutable grids, divskip will only run from the master clock out of grids when the clock rate is set to 24ppqn, which makes it run far too fast. Turning down the clock rate on grids to either of the lower settings seems to result in divskip not detecting the clock. Anyone got any idea what is going on? Driving me crazy.
The rate of the clock won't (shouldn't) make a difference. DivSkip moves forward with a trigger (steady or not steady rhythmic / random etc). Does anything about the clock signal change on Grids when the PPQN is changed?
@ I’m not sure. The only thing I can think is maybe for some reason changing grids clock rate somehow affects the trigger voltage, but it doesn’t seem likely. Harder to troubleshoot now the mutable forums are gone! Really need an oscilloscope to see what is going on! Not the end of the world, divskip is currently living in my other case doing all kinds of skippy goodness!
Get in touch if there's any other issues or developments we'll certainly make sure it's all fine for you. Weird with Grids, I take it triggers from the other case and other modules are all fine?
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.
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.
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.
@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?
@@DivKidthanks. This is a very interesting module! Small, without sacrificing functionality (of course it did while designing, but we users don't see that 😂).
This is out now and on sale right away! It's already up at these stores (more to follow, I'll edit this comment as stores wake up and take their pages live)

Hah -- ordered.
thank you, made your rhythms be skippy, euclidean of divided :)
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.

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.
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.
Are the eight patterns of the four channels the same or different to each other in patterns mode?
I show the pattern mode in the video and highlight that each one is different. Channel 1 focuses on kick and snare rhythms, channel 2 closed and open hi hats, channel 3 two percussion lines and channel 4 is another hi hat set. For the rest of the modes each channel is identical and you can select different modes on different channels.
Having a problem with this which I can’t figure out. I have being using mutable grids as the master clock in my drum case. If I clock divskip with mutable marbles, all works as expected, either from marbles master clock or trigger outs. However, when I try to clock it with mutable grids, divskip will only run from the master clock out of grids when the clock rate is set to 24ppqn, which makes it run far too fast. Turning down the clock rate on grids to either of the lower settings seems to result in divskip not detecting the clock. Anyone got any idea what is going on? Driving me crazy.
The rate of the clock won't (shouldn't) make a difference. DivSkip moves forward with a trigger (steady or not steady rhythmic / random etc). Does anything about the clock signal change on Grids when the PPQN is changed?
@ I’m not sure. The only thing I can think is maybe for some reason changing grids clock rate somehow affects the trigger voltage, but it doesn’t seem likely. Harder to troubleshoot now the mutable forums are gone! Really need an oscilloscope to see what is going on! Not the end of the world, divskip is currently living in my other case doing all kinds of skippy goodness!
Get in touch if there's any other issues or developments we'll certainly make sure it's all fine for you.
Weird with Grids, I take it triggers from the other case and other modules are all fine?
@ cheers I’m pretty sure the issue is with grids, or possibly a bad cable. The module works great in my other case.
I hope you get Grids working, glad DivSkip is working well otherwise.
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.
@@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.

Sooo this makes euclidean circles and turing machines obsolete?
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
Both modules have their strengths and weaknesses but the divskip is definitely very versatile & the features chosen very carefully
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.
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!

So THIS is why MSM isn't working to fix the issues with Stolperbeats. Maybe now that this project is finished they will answer my emails.🙄
Haha 😂 I was able to withstand until 11:35 then I ordered it at Thonk 🎉. What a lovely new module. Now back to the demo 😊
16:15 so it handles clock with swing !! across all modes ? even divide?
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.
@@DivKid that's awesome !!!
@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?
The DATA isn't great at showing triggers and it does often skip them entirely. Anything that short in length at the input can be missed pretty easily.
@@DivKidthanks. This is a very interesting module! Small, without sacrificing functionality (of course it did while designing, but we users don't see that 😂).

thanks
Damn..I'm at 1:15 and already need ;))
