Make Noise Tempi
Intuitive polyphonic clock divider with tap programming
10 HP Eurorack module
TEMPI is a 6-channel polyphonic clock divider/multiplier with an intuitive tap-based interface that makes complex polyrhythms feel natural and musical. It combines human-style tapping with machine precision, allowing you to create intricate rhythmic relationships that evolve and shift organically. The module excels at transforming simple clock sources into rich polyrhythmic arrangements that feel alive and responsive.
