At Superbooth 2025, held May 8-10 at the FEZ-Berlin, Tiptop Audio introduced three new modules, OCTOLFO, Multipass, & Resonator.
Here are the details on each of the new modules:
The OCTOLFO, above, is part of Tiptop’s ART range of polyphonic modules, and offers eight-voice voltage-controlled LFOs. For all Eurorack synth owners, the module packs a lot of LFOs into a compact package. If you’re using ART, the module lets you make the jump to modulating polyphonically.
The Octolfo featureseight fully-independent LFOs with plenty of controls, lots of waveforms, and even the ability to load your own waveshapes. Clock-sync it or let it free-run. Use one-shot cycles of waveforms to create unique envelopes, and reset LFO cycles from your notes. All eight LFOs are available simultaneously on regular jacks and Polytip jacks—both outputs and CV control inputs. CV is mappable to parameters, and the entire setup can be saved as a “preset.”
Multipass is an Eight-Voice Multimode Filter in their ART line. This is based on the OB-X filter design (not the later CEM-based OB-Xa). It features extended signal levels on inputs and outputs for an even broader tone range. LP, BP, and HP modes are poly-voltage controlled and simultaneously available per voice through Polytip, and via a mixed output jack. Each filter mode has manual gain control via dedicated faders. Frequency control is polyphonic and can be over-modulated by a mono signal with adjustable scaling.
Resonator is an extended design, based on the analog resonator from the 1975 Polymoog synthesizer.
Tiptop says that Resonator works with everything from drums to polyphonic audio, adding lush resonating swirls.
It features three resonators, each with a selectable band. Each has voltage control for every parameter, nine CV inputs in total. Multiple gain stages (master input, resonator gain, and mix output) allow fine control and help manage clipping.
Emphasis CV range boundaries prevent runaway self-oscillation. A true-bypass switch makes it easy to compare processed and dry signals—perfect for leaving it patched in and engaging ononly when needed.
Details are to be announced, but they expect all three modules to be shipping ‘soon’.
