Step 8 is a new type of modular building block Eurorack module that offers a sequential tracking/sampling register, providing sequencers, sequential switches, counters, and analogue shift registers, among other functions. It features an analogue switch feeding eight track/sample-and-hold stages, each with an analogue output and gate output, controllable through a built-in 8-step counter or addressed directly by an analogue CV. The module uses advanced circuit techniques to avoid noise, distortion, and voltage issues, resulting in transparent signal paths with high precision and bandwidth. Its possibilities become endless with the ability to mute inactive stages, pause the counter, change its direction, shift stages on each step, and more. Additionally, it offers a scanning output, making it easy and intuitive for sequencer or addressed voltage source use.

Acid Rain Technology's Constellation is an 8-channel pattern generator that aims to revolutionize rhythm by combining up to eight individual Euclidean patterns of different lengths and density to create long, complex, and musically interesting trigger and gate rhythms. Its unique parametric approach allows any of these parameters to be modulated with CV through one of eight freely assignable CV inputs, introducing significant ability for its rhythmic output to vary over time. Furthermore, the module can achieve a wide range of true polyrhythms through per-channel clock division and multiplication. Constellation's advanced features include saving and loading channel settings from up to 20 save slots per bank and up to 999 banks, manually playing save slots like a keyboard in live mode, and robust internal and external clock options to sync tightly with all other gear. If you're looking for a rhythm generator that provides intentional, unexpected, and exciting rhythms for the foundation of your compositions, Constellation could be a unique set of tools for you.
