Multi Repetitor

Noise Engineering 10HP

Four-channel algorithmic rhythm and accent sequencer. Numeric, Zularic, or Euclidean banks feed four trigger outs and four accent outs; faders, switches, and tap tempo shape the groove.

Four-voice drum grid
Euclidean bank on · Prime at noon · four trigger outs drive kick, snare, hat, and percussion · accents add motion to the same voices without extra sequencing.

Accent-to-timbre groove
Trigger lanes hit the drum voices while the accent outs open envelopes on a filter and VCA chain · the pattern stays simple, the motion comes from dynamic accents.

Bank-scanned groove
A slow LFO scans SET CV while a stepped random source modulates the factor lanes · the core pattern keeps changing banks without losing the pulse.

Manual reset fills
Let the pattern run, then hit RESET on the downbeat to force a fill restart · lane 4 becomes a predictable phrase marker while the other lanes keep turning over.

Accent-driven modulation bus
Use the four accent outputs as a modulation bank · one lane opens a VCA, one hits filter cutoff, one shifts delay mix, one resets an LFO clock for a denser performance patch.

Behaviors

Three rhythm banks Set switch or SET CV

Numeric, Zularic, and Euclidean banks each define a different starting rhythm set for the four lanes.

Lane modification move Factor sliders

Each lane can offset, multiply, or prime-shift its source rhythm independently, so one clock source can generate four related but distinct patterns.

Accent derivation Accent switch

Accent gates are computed from neighboring lanes when enabled, so accents stay pattern-aware instead of acting like static velocity outs.

Tap-tempo operation RESET TAP button with no external clock

Repeated taps set the internal tempo. When an external clock is patched, the same button acts as a manual reset.

Hands-free groove morphing CV into PRIME, FACTOR, or SET

All rhythm-defining parameters can be voltage controlled, which lets the module move between locked patterns and evolving polymetric variations without touching the panel.

Interface inversion invert orientation from the manual procedure

The panel can be flipped for faders-down use, which keeps the performance layout usable in cases with reversed module rows.

Controls

Global Prime Selects the base rhythm for the four lanes.
fader + CV · sets the prime rhythm
Per lane Factor 1-4 Sets the modification amount for each trigger lane.
four faders + CV inputs
Global Set switch Selects the rhythm bank used as the starting point.
Left: Numeric · Middle: Zularic · Right: Euclidean
Global Modify switch Selects how the Factor sliders alter the base pattern.
Offset · Multiply · Prime offset
Global Accent switch Chooses whether accent outputs are off or derived from neighboring lanes.
Off · next lane · previous lane
Global Reset Tap button Taps tempo when free-running or resets when an external clock is present.
tap tempo · manual reset
