The Turing Machine MKII Eurorack Module is a versatile random looping sequencer designed for composing evolving electronic music. Utilizing a 16-bit memory circuit called a shift register, this module produces a symphony of randomly changing control voltages that lock into loops ranging from 2 to 32 steps.

What really makes the Turing Machine such an engrossing instrument is its complex relationship with randomness. When synced to a CV clock signal, it transforms white noise data into spontaneous sonic sequences, controllable via onboard encoders or external CV sources. Its central knob twists to the right to catch these random pitches into a loop, which will repeat at a length specified by its second encoder.

Its most exciting feature is its ability to incrementally add elements of randomness back into sequences, creating an evolving musical composition almost entirely independently. With a little bit of input from the musician, this entertaining way to produce loops creates exciting, refreshing, and bouncy arpeggios!

Described by DivKid as the ‘real beating heart of a system’ in his video for Music Thing Modular, the Turing Machine infuses your Eurorack patches with captivating melodies and complex polyrhythms. Its intuitive interface gives you hands-on control over rhythm and pitch, creating a fast-paced and enjoyable platform for musical experimentation.

The Turing Machine MKII is produced by Synthrotek, a prolific creator from Washington, USA. It is available in DIY kits and fully assembled versions, and the Synthrotek store hosts a variety of complementary equipment to enhance your setup!
