This is a small Eurorack module that splits one signal into several copies. You can pick 1-on-3 or 1-on-6 mode, and each section has a switch that shifts the signal by plus or minus 1 V, which is handy for setting oscillator octaves. It suits you if you build a modular rig and want a tidy, space-saving way to send one signal to many places.
Pros
- Buffered precision multiple gives you one signal sent to several outputs
- Switch between 1-on-3 and 1-on-6 modes to fit your patch
- Per-section plus or minus 1 V offset switch helps set oscillator octaves
Cons
- Only 25 mm deep, so check depth clearance in tight cases
-
If you run a Eurorack setup and need one signal sent to several places, this module handles that job. It uses active electronics for both audio and CV signals, and it passes pitch CV to the cent. It is a good pick for you if you want a simple way to split signals in a small 2 HP space.
Pros
- Buffered design uses active electronics for both audio and CV signals
- Works as a 1-on-3 multiple, splitting one signal to three outputs
- Works as a 1-on-6 multiple, splitting one signal to six outputs
Cons
- Needs +12 V and -12 V power, so your Eurorack case must supply both rails
-
The Intellijel Buff Mult is a ridiculously useful little module for anyone building a Eurorack. Its buffered outputs keep your signals clean, and the normalization trick is a genuine space-saver. Ideal for those needing to split signals without sacrificing signal integrity or patching real estate.
Pros
- Excellent buffering eliminates signal degradation in complex patching
- Normalization simplifies routing, saving precious patch bay space
- Intelligent design minimizes noise and crosstalk between channels
Cons
- Limited to six outputs; may not suffice for sprawling setups
- Buffering can slightly soften transient response in some applications

Pros
- Simplifies complex Polytip routing significantly, reducing cable clutter.
- Passive design eliminates power requirements, saving valuable HP.
- Robust metal construction ensures durability within a modular environment.
Cons
- Limited to Polytip connections; incompatible with standard 3.5mm patching.
- Passive nature means signal quality is dependent on preceding modules.

If you run a Eurorack setup and need to send one signal to several places, this small module is a good pick. It works as a 1-on-3 or 1-on-2 splitter, and it can also act as a 1-of-5 multiple when In B is not used. At 3 HP wide, it takes up very little room in your case.
Pros
- Buffered design keeps the signal strong when split to several outputs
- Works as a 1-on-3 or 1-on-2 multiple for splitting one signal
- Can run as a 1-of-5 multiple when In B is not used
Cons
- Needs a Eurorack power supply, drawing 20 mA on +12 V and 14 mA on -12 V
-
The A-115 is a divider module that makes lower versions of the signal you feed it, one to four octaves down. An attenuator lets you set the level of the original signal and each sub-octave, and everything comes out as one mixed output. It suits you if you build a Eurorack-style modular setup and want to add low octave tones to a signal you already have.
Pros
- Four-stage divider builds sub-octaves from F/2 down to F/16
- Individual attenuator sets the level of the original signal and each sub-octave
- Outputs a sum mix of the original signal and all four sub-octaves
Cons
- Sub-octaves are symmetric square-wave signals, so the sound is limited to that shape
-
This is a small module that sends one signal out to several places at once. If you use Eurorack and want to send pitch, CV, gate and audio through one cable, you might like it. It needs no power, so it fits neatly into a tight case.
Pros
- Passive design means it needs no power supply to run.
- Polytip patch cable carries pitch, CV, gate and audio signals together.
- Polyphonic design handles several signals at once through one connection.
Cons
- It only works with the proprietary Tiptop Audio Polytip patch cable for its signals.

How to choose the best multiple, divider modules
Waveform Purity & Aliasing
Cheap dividers often introduce nasty aliasing artifacts, especially at higher multiples. We're listening for clean, fundamental tones and minimal unwanted overtones - that ice-picky harshness is a dealbreaker for serious sound design.
Modulation Response
A good multiple module isn't just about fixed ratios. It needs to react predictably and musically to modulation sources - LFOs, envelopes, sequencers. Lag, drift, or a sudden jump in pitch are all red flags.
Phase Stability
Phase issues can lead to cancellation and thin, lifeless sounds. Advanced players need to be able to manipulate phase relationships for complex textures, and that requires a stable and controllable core.
Polyphony Handling
Some dividers can handle multiple voices cleanly, while others quickly devolve into a muddy mess. We're assessing how well they maintain individual voice clarity when stacked or modulated.
Control & Calibration
Precise calibration options are vital for avoiding drift and tuning errors, especially when dealing with complex ratios. Simple trim pots are fine, but a module with built-in calibration tools is a huge time-saver.
Buying guide
So, you're past the basic VCO/filter patching and craving some serious harmonic complexity? Multiple and divider modules are your ticket to that, but they're not just simple multipliers. We're talking about unlocking polyphony, creating intricate textures, and manipulating waveforms in ways that'll make your patches sing - or scream, depending on your aesthetic. This isn't beginner territory; we'll dive into what advanced players really need from these modules.
Don't fall for the 'more features' trap. A module crammed with bells and whistles often sacrifices core performance. Pay attention to the core architecture - is it a true divider, a frequency-domain processor, or something else?
Those cheaper modules promising a million ratios often have aliasing that'll ruin your vibe. Spend the money on something that nails the fundamentals and offers useful, musical control, not just a spreadsheet of numbers.

Questions
What's the difference between a multiple and a divider?
A multiple simply duplicates a signal. A divider mathematically reduces the frequency, creating multiples of the original waveform's period. Dividers are what we're really talking about here for advanced applications.
How do I deal with aliasing?
Careful waveform selection is key - sine waves are generally cleanest. Filtering unwanted overtones with a low-pass filter can help, but it also reduces the complexity. Experiment with phase manipulation to minimize artifacts.
Can I use these modules for polyphonic sounds?
Absolutely, but it's tricky. Look for modules specifically designed for polyphony or be prepared to carefully manage voice separation and tuning with external sequencers and modulation sources.
My divider is drifting out of tune - what's going on?
Temperature changes and component aging can cause drift. Calibrate the module's trim pots, or invest in a more stable module with built-in calibration features.
Are these modules really worth the cost?
If you're just making basic drones, no. But if you're after complex textures, intricate polyphony, and a deeper understanding of harmonic relationships, the investment pays off - both in sonic possibilities and in learning what makes synthesis tick.
