Create intricate melodies as well as complex beats and soundscapes with the Behringer CHAOS, an analog Eurorack module capable of random sampling. Control clock speeds, trigger and CV probability, scale length for some over-the-top melodies, ambient washes and grooves in an infinitely tweakable module.
When talking about the CHAOS it’s best to break it down into two parts, the t section, and the X section. The t section generates gates at random that are tied to a master clock. The X section generates three random voltages which are clocked to the t section. Each section is infinitely tweakable and can be patched to different sources to create some truly unique sequences.
Within the t section, there are three main outputs: t1, t2 and t3. A master clock is generated out of t2. You can “warp” this clock by turning the Jitter knob clockwise or counterclockwise. This simulates the minor imperfections a musician may have when playing to a metronome to give your beats a more natural feel.
Features
- Amazing powerhouse to create random rhythm and musical ideas
- Sound engines based on Mutable Instruments * Marbles
- t generator creates a ”warped“ clock source by simulating the missteps of a musician trying to play to a click
- X generator provides 3 random CV sources, clocked by the t generator
- Memory function recalls the order of each preceding clock abberration, voltage or rhythm
- 2 separate audio outs for both the main sound and a dynamic variant
- Eurorack specs: 16 HP, 70 mA +12 V, 40 mA -12 V
