If you run a modular synth and want to send one signal to several places, this module can help you do it. It draws no power, so it will not use up your power budget, and it takes up only 14 HP of space. It suits you if you want a simple, budget-friendly way to split a signal.
Pros
- Passive design needs no power and draws 0 mA
- Dual 1x5 layout gives two separate paths, each with one input and five outputs
- Compact 14 HP width fits into a small modular case
Cons
- Passive design means it cannot boost or amplify a signal
-
If you want to send one signal to many places in your modular rig, this module is a good pick for you. It has two buffered 1 x 4 multiples, and the first one's output feeds the second, so you can split a signal several ways. At 14 HP it is small, and it draws very little power, so it fits easily in most cases.
Pros
- Contains two buffered 1 x 4 multipliers, so one signal can feed up to eight destinations.
- The first multiple's output is normalized to the second multiple's input, letting you chain them easily.
- Buffered outputs keep the source signal steady as it splits to several places.
Cons
- It needs +12 V and -12 V power, so your case power supply must supply both rails.
-
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
-
If you use a Eurorack setup and need to connect 3.5 mm mono cables to 6.3 mm mono jacks, this module can help. You get five separate adapters in one 8 TE module, and it needs no power supply, so you can plug it in and use it. It suits anyone with a mix of cable types in their modular rig.
Pros
- Contains five independent adapters, so you can convert several cables at once
- Each adapter converts from 3.5 mm mono jack to 6.3 mm mono jack
- Passive construction means it needs no power supply to work
Cons
- Converts mono 3.5 mm jacks only, so stereo plugs are not covered
-
If you run a Eurorack modular setup, this little module is handy to have. It takes one signal and sends it to several places at once, and it can also combine clock, gate and pulse signals. Because it is passive, it needs no power, so you can slot it into your case and get going.
Pros
- Passive design, so it needs no power supply to run
- Can be set up as 3 x 3, 1 x 5, 1 x 3 or 1 x 7 multiples
- Sends one signal to multiple destinations
-
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
-
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
-
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, simple module that takes one signal and sends it to eight jacks. You get two groups of four jacks, and if you want all eight in one group, you can solder a bridge on the circuit board to change it. It suits anyone building a modular rack who needs more places to plug in cables without using up much space.
Pros
- Passive multi-port distributor that splits one signal into eight jacks
- Eight interconnected jacks give you plenty of patch points in a tiny space
- Sockets are divided into two quadruple groups, which keeps patching organized
Cons
- Changing it to a single eight-multiple means soldering a bridge on the circuit board
-
The Wayout8 is a brilliant, budget-friendly solution for anyone juggling multiple Eurorack cases or integrating their modular system with a DAW. It's a no-fuss way to organize complex patching, especially when dealing with CV and gate signals, and its compact size makes it a winner for smaller racks. If you're tired of spaghetti patching, this is a simple, reliable upgrade.
Pros
- Solid, grounded connections minimize noise, a huge plus for sensitive signals.
- Passive design eliminates power supply concerns and adds reliability.
- Compact 6U width saves valuable rack space in tight setups.
Cons
- Passive design means signal attenuation; longer runs may require gain.
- Limited functionality; it's a patchbay, not a signal processor.

How to choose the best multiple, divider modules
Signal Integrity
This is paramount. A cheap multiple can muddy your signal, introduce unwanted noise, or just plain distort. We're looking for clean splits without noticeable degradation - crucial for recording or cutting through a live mix.
Noise Floor
Modular synths are sensitive. Even a slight hum or hiss from a multiple can ruin a delicate patch. Lower noise floor is always better, especially when dealing with quiet signals or subtle modulation.
Build Quality
Let's be honest, at this price point, things are often built a little lighter. We're assessing the robustness of the jacks, the quality of the PCB, and overall feel - it needs to survive a gig bag.
Feature Set
Beyond simple splitting, some dividers offer interesting features like attenuation, offset, or even basic wave shaping. These extras can significantly expand your sonic palette without adding much to the cost.
Input/Output Impedance Matching
Mismatching impedance can cause signal loss or unwanted coloration. Ideally, the module should have an impedance that's compatible with most Eurorack modules, although compromises are common at this price.
Buying guide
Okay, so you're diving into modular and need a multiple or divider without breaking the bank? Smart move. These modules are absolute workhorses - essential for splitting signals, creating complex harmonies, and generally making your patch sing. But let's be real, the high-end stuff can drain your wallet fast. Here's a breakdown of what you can realistically expect for under $300.
Realistically, under $300, you're making trade-offs. Expect slightly looser tolerances, potentially more noise than a top-tier module, and maybe a less refined aesthetic. Don't expect pristine, ultra-low noise performance.
Focus on modules with good signal integrity and a reasonable noise floor. Read reviews carefully and look for feedback from other players who've used the module in similar scenarios - a bedroom practice setup isn't the same as a loud band rehearsal.

Questions
What's the difference between a multiple and a divider?
A multiple simply splits a signal into multiple identical copies. A divider takes a signal and divides its amplitude by a specific ratio (e.g., 1/2, 1/4, 1/8), creating harmonic relationships.
Can I use a multiple to create stereo signals?
Yes, absolutely. You can split a mono signal and use it as a simple stereo source. However, for true stereo processing, you'll want a dedicated stereo multiple or a more complex patching strategy.
What's a 'noise floor' and why does it matter?
The noise floor is the level of background noise produced by the module itself. A lower noise floor means less unwanted hiss or hum contaminating your signal - critical for clean recordings and subtle sound design.
I'm new to modular. Is a multiple or divider really necessary?
While you can technically patch cables everywhere, multiples and dividers save space, streamline your patching, and allow for more complex routing. They're a massive time saver, especially as your system grows.
Are there any good DIY options in this price range?
Definitely! Kits from brands like Befaco and Synthrotek can offer excellent value, but factor in the time and effort required for assembly. The resulting performance is often surprisingly good for the price.
