Tiptop Audio - Octopus - USB/Midi to ART Interface + Voice Manager

Octopus is a powerhouse ART controller that takes MIDI in via the USB or DIN connector and outputs 8 ART channels with 8 velocity CV plus 8 drum triggers.

Octopus is a powerful ART controller that receives MIDI via the USB or DIN port and outputs 8 ART channels with 8 velocity CVs and 8 drum triggers.
Together with the ART oscillators, the OCTOPUS offers unprecedented simplicity when connecting the modular system to computer sequencers, hardware midi sequencers and keyboards. Each ART channel can play polyphonic or monophonic notes or generate multi-channel polyphony using an internal voice manager.

Please note that OCTOPUS is not a 1V/Oct Midi to CV and should not be confused with it.

About ART:

• ART is a new control signal
• ART modules are Eurorack modules and use Eurorack signal levels for oscillator audio and gate/cv controls, same power connector, and are designed to blend into any Eurorack system.
• ART control has precise pitch information as well as performance data about the note (velocity, mod and pressure)
• The ART signal is high speed for near zero latency Building upon the potential of the new ART signal a new generation of modules
