NEW! - QUANTIZING FEATURE AVAILABLE

IMPORTANT NOTE

UNLESS YOU SELECT THE FULL KIT OPTION, this is a PCB and Panel set only. You will then need to purchase your own components and build your own module. Comprehensive build instructions and BOMs are provided to help you source the components needed and we even provide links to shopping carts to simplify sourcing those components. Some product photos above show COMPLETED build.

Two 6HP modules comprise this Eurorack sequencer. The control module handles 16 steps and an 8 step CV board is included. An additional 8 step CV board can be added.

• Analog control of step voltage with switchable step and indicators for step on/off and step active.
• Quantizer with up to 16 scales
• Integral speed control, external clock input and clock output.
• Configurable action at selected step: Restart, reverse, stop, ignore or random.
• Random mode plays random step between one and any selected step.
• Stepping mode, Forward, Back, Reset.
• External start and re-trigger.

The Quantola is a variant of the Synthola sequencer which has quantized outputs. The Quantola is a direct replacement for the Synthola main control module and works with all the existing Synthola CV modules.

Build it yourself - This is a set of 2 high quality PCBs and 2 front panels ONLY for users who want to purchase their own components and build their own module. Some product photos above show COMPLETED build. You can add a pre-programmed PIC microprocessor to the order if you do not have the facilities to do this yourself.

The module (when using our front panels) is Eurorack size and only 12HP wide leaving room in your rack for other modules. The control board and CV board can be separately located in different parts of your rack if desired, so that you can have the controller nearby and the CV pots further away from the action.

The module uses a Microchip PIC24 microprocessor.

Switch options for latching switch:

• eSwitch LC1258EENP
• C&K PN12SHNA03QE
• ALPS SPPJ310500

Switch options for the momentary switch:

• eSwitch LC1258OANP or LC1258OASP
• C&K PN11SHSA03QE or PN11SHNA03QE
• ALPS SPPJ311500

But use the eSwitch caps only for all these items: Mouser 612-1R-xx

Comprehensive documentation, parts lists and firmware are provided in the documentation link for building, testing and using the module.

Scales

Press the DO button until all three LEDs are flashing. You are now in SCALE mode. Use the AT button to step through the scales. If you have one CV module, 8 scales are available (see Bank 1 below). If you have two CV modules, two banks of scales are available.
