The first thing ART does is establish a new signal in Eurorack systems, just like CV Gate and 1V/Oct now we add ART. ART is not just a new signal but allows for development of previously impossible products that pass through traditional barriers and make Eurorack more capable. An entire product line of ART based modules is in development at Tiptop Audio right now as shown at Superbooth 23. We can’t wait to get it to you, but we still have an intensive beta testing program to complete before release.
This was my immediate thought as well. Looks awesome, but if no plan for other manufacturers to integrate than it seems like a dead end. One of the big appeals of eurorack modular is being able to mix and match stuff from different builders.
This is by far the most technologically advanced gear we’ve ever made. It is an 16-analog-oscillator polyphonic module with ART control, Polytip patch points, and 3.5mm standard jacks creating an analog polyphonic oscillator. The two VCOs per voice generate a total of eight voices to pair with our other polyphonic modules. And when we say analog oscillators, we mean cutting-edge analog design using Dave Rossum and his colleagues’ oscillator chips, combined with our state-of-the-art PCB layout and precise tuning firmware to unlock the truly outstanding sound of these analog cores. The result is a stunningly beautiful analog poly that can make classic vintage synth sounds, or use the TZ linear FM for wild yet controlled FM sounds like bells and much more that cannot be accurately put into words. This monster is expected in November 2024.

Very cool! I love seeing things like this. I don’t use Euro, but it’s definitely where all the newer innovations are happening. Can’t wait to see what they do with this.
