Generate complex rhythmic structures with the 4ms Tapographical Delay (TAPO), a complex multi-tap delay in Eurorack format with a unique interface designed for live performance. The TAPO excels at transforming simple audio signals (drone or percussive sound) into complex rhythmic structures, meshes or organic textures, lush harmonic mille-feuilles, liquid and resonant effects.
The TAPO is designed to be played in real time rather than a set and forget end-of-chain effect. It's expressive, experimental nature is made for interaction. The TAPO ships with a ribbon power cable and mounting screws.
At a Glance
- Velocity-sensitive force sensor to tap the delay configurations (tapographies)
- Up to 32 taps, each with its own delay time, amplitude/filter, and panning
- Low-pass filter or resonant (pingable) band-pass filter on each tap
- Morphing between delay configurations, with adjustable morph time
- Two different feedback paths: a Repeat toggle and a Feedback knob
- Save and recall up to 24 delay configurations (4 banks of 6 slots each)
- Tapography sequencer with forward, random walk or random directions
- Synchronization to an external clock, with clock divider/multiplier
- Gate output that plays the current rhythm of delays
- Maximum delay time of 174 seconds (almost 3 minutes)
