Play more voices and notes with ease from a single controller than ever thought possible with the Tiptop Audio OCTOPUS, a powerhouse ART controller in Eurorack format that takes MIDI in via the USB or DIN connector and outputs eight ART channels with 8 velocity CV and 8 drum triggers. The OCTOPUS provides the ART oscillators with unprecedented simplicity when connecting the modular to your computer sequencers, hardware MIDI sequencers, and keyboards.





ART is a new Eurorack signal that contains several types of information in a single cable including perfect pitch for ART-enabled analog and digital oscillators. Its high speed control signals maintain very low jitter for tight timing. Each ART channel can play polyphonic notes, monophonic notes or create multichannel polyphony using an internal voice manager. OCTOPUS is Tiptop Audio's first ART controller with more to follow. It is required to get started with ART.





Note: Please note, OCTOPUS is not a 1V/oct MIDI to CV and should not be confused as one.Create analog polyphonic synths and multimono patches with the Tiptop Audio ATX1, a classic, all-analog saw-core voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) with three switchable modes (ART, 1V/Oct, LFO), designed as the basic building block for the ART system. ART is the latest Eurorack signal (like CV and gate), but with multiple streams of information including 100% perfect pitch.





In 1V/Oct mode, the ATX1 runs as a standard old-school modular VCO. LFO mode drops the frequency range to CV level and is great for patching vibrato to other ATX1 and VORTEX oscillators. The ATX1 outputs variable waveshapes with manual or CV control. Classic FM, PWM, and hard sync are provided. As with all ART-enabled sound sources, a dedicated gate out ensures the voice envelope or any modulation source is synced to that voice.Mix your signals with the Tiptop Audio MIX7, a mono, seven-channel, analog summing mixer for your Eurorack modular system. Combine audio, CV, gate, or trigger signals to create rhythms, note patterns, or CV automations from different control surfaces.





The MIX7 is built with low-noise operational amplifiers, giving it an excellent sound quality for mixing audio. Each input is labeled with a number of dots and you can combine two MIX7 to create a 13-channel summing mixer. The MIX7 ships with a ribbon power cable.Designed to help build full a synthesizer voice quickly and easily, the Tiptop Audio Control Path, an all-in-one voice dynamics module with two analog ADSR envelope generators with velocity CV and a single VCA, in Eurorack format.





The left envelope is designed to control a sound modification circuit like a filter, while the right envelope is dedicated to the end-of-the-voice VCA, which controls the volume when a key is pressed on a keyboard or a note is triggered from a sequencer. Front-panel delay trimmers are used to compensate for any mismatch between incoming gate signal and velocity CV timings. The module includes a ribbon power cable.Recreate the sounds of your favorite synths with the black TipTop Audio Z2040, a 24 dB analog low-pass filter that's similar to the one used in the Prophet 5, Emu samplers, and PPG synthesizers. Frequency sweeps make thick bass lines and leads with great dynamics for a lush, big, and creamy signature sound.





When modulated with audio frequencies through its various inputs, the Z2040 gets quite colorful and is capable of creating many new sounds and textures as the forces of the incoming waves and their harmonics blend through the filter’s nonlinear circuit. When set with resonance feedback fully up, the Z2040 transforms into a pure sine-core VC-Oscillator, great for making snappy percussive elements and whistling sounds. The module ships with a ribbon power cable.
