Tiptop Audio has introduced the QuantiZer – a quantizing module that they say sets a new performance standard for Eurorack offering stable CV quantization, temperature-compensated 1V/Oct CV generation on output and conversion latency of less than half a millisecond.
Features:
- At its center is a slider that can be set to play notes, add Portamento to an incoming sequence, transpose a sequence with in an octave range or transpose a sequence with in 5 octave range.
- The 12 note keyboard can be set to play notes manually, add and subtract notes from scales, transpose a sequence as well as setup a variety of settings that define the quantizer behavior and sync with other modules.
- Major and Minor keys are both built in to let you switch scales in a very playable way, making it pretty easy to explore musical progression. There are also 24 user scales ready to be filled up with your own custom scales.
- A built in sketch pad records and plays back keys entered manually on the keyboard and slider in sync with external clock and reset signal, or Tiptop’s SyncBus which chains the QuantiZer recording function to the Circadian Rhythms time line for precise recording and playback.
- Scale CV in can be set to switch between changing scales or transposing pitches using CV from sequencers.
- Quantization can be set for free run or Trigger mode for even more interesting ways to interact with external sequencers.
- QuantiZer can be set to process a wide variety of CV voltage input ranges, +/-5V CV from LFOs, bi-polar envelopes and such, or 0-10V / 0-5V standard CV from sequencers.
- Continuing the tradition of advanced Tiptop digital modules, the QuantiZer Firmware running the digital brain is upgradeable via a USB thumb drive interface at its back allowing for continuous improvement and fine tuning of function and stability over time.
Here’s the official video intro:
Pricing and availability are to be announced.
what a pointless video
Sexualizing a quantize module. Ok.
seriously. Tiptop: if you’re listening, this is wack.
i second that, also commented on their vimeo video to let them now. we all know that eurorack is very male dominant but we don’t have to make things worse.
tiptop wants to be elektron or arturia, I guess. waste of time.
in case you didn’t know, the Tiptop brand is used by Depeche Mode, before speaking it would be convenient for you to inform yourself
Loving the new aesthetics of the module
Hoping to see more cool stuff from TipTop at Namm
I’m in the market for one of those….. and a quantizer 😉
sometimes I wish I could still down vote comments.
So it was you!

1 channel, and a bullshit video. Fail all around, I hope you guys are reading this.
Module looks great. Video is total shite
Admin: Personal attack deleted. Keep comments on topic and constructive.
TTA usually posts fun teaser videos for most of their new gear. OMG! No!! A modular company that’s actually trying to market something??? With a hot chick?? NOT COOL. I hope your reading this!! Actually I’m sure they are working on producing their awesome in demand gear instead of reading this.
That being said this has been talked about for a while and I’m glad to see it hit daylight and can’t wait to get one. Love these guys.
They should make brackets for their Z-rails.
You are all so f=_$kn woke. Video is stupid. No more.
