Tiptop Audio Circadian Rhythms Black at a glance:

• 512 step sequencer with multi color LEDs
• eight trigger outputs
• clock out
• clock in
• reset out
• reset in
• Swing adjustable by rotary control

Multiple Views:

Unlike traditional hardware sequencers with only a static display, Circadian Rhythms offers four different horizontal views and two unique vertical views, which are resolved from micro to macro. Instantly switch between a full 64-step view of a track, or a simultaneous view of all eight channels running side-by-side. Stretch gate signals across multiple patterns to drive envelopes, or use the zoom view to shift individual beats by a few milliseconds - all from the same interface.

LED Grid for quick access and perfect control

Patterns and musical phrases are quickly and intuitively repeated, looped, chained, muted and manipulated thanks to the clearly structured panel layout. Numerous multi-color LEDs impressively illustrate the programmed music. No less than 72 push buttons with multi-color illumination form the 8 x 9 grid, allowing Circadian Rhythms to precisely visualize notes as well as data. It only takes one click to switch between horizontal and vertical views, transforming the grid into a programming matrix for mutes, loops, swing, fills, copy and paste, grouping, randomizing, manual triggering and much, much more. Activation of these functions is always just one, or at most two, button presses away.

Clock

For the ultimate groove, an extremely precise clock with jitter and latency measurements in the microsecond range is working inside the CR. The four different clock sync modes make it easy to connect to modules, hardware and software. Circadian Rhythms generates precise clock and reset signals for all other sequencers and devices in the system and beyond! Whether it's a huge Eurorack system, or synced to a DAW, the groove always stays tight.

SyncBus Technology

The SyncBus developed by Tiptop Audio allows perfect synchronization of chained devices with SyncBus technology. A SyncBus master feeds its clock and switching state directly to the devices connected in the chain, making them all work together as if it were one device. Use two CR's to create a 16-channel sequencer, or add one to three Trigger Riot's to open up more layers of experimentation. Best of all, the devices are connected behind the control panel, so there's no need to patch cables to keep them in sync.
