The White Gallop is a limited edition companion of the Shakmat Knight’s Gallop. The White Gallop is less focused on the algorithmic side of rhythm generation and instead provides more assymetrical and unusual patterns. There is also a useful new weapon : the auto-reset function – allowing you to easily reset the generated sequences after 8 or 16 steps.
Just like the Knight’s Gallop, this module is endowed with the same modes and sub modes allowing utility, computational and randomish treatment of the patterns. Of course, we also kept our beloved dual and record modes. White Gallop has the same workflow as it’s predecessor but delivers a totally different rhythmic feeling, ideal for creating interesting rhythms and polyrhythms.

Features
- Dual Output Trigger Generator
- Variable length sequences (up to 16 steps)
- Length and Pulse amount potentiometers and CV inputs
- Shift + & shift – buttons allowing to shift the sequence forward and backward
- Main mode (MN) providing a lot of utility modes for the second output : reset, no shift, invert and reverse
- Compute mode (CP) calculating associated sequences for the second output delivering very musical polyrhythms
- Random mode (RD) adding randomness on the second output sequence, 4 amounts of randomness determined by the sub mode
- Dual mode (DL) allowing to set the two outputs separately
- Record mode (RC) turning the Knight’s Gallop into a “play your sequence on the buttons to record it” module
- Auto-Reset function which automatically resets the sequences after 8 or 16 steps
- Five different kind of tables for five different rhythmic flavours : As Straight as Possible, Length minus Pulse, Accelerando, Decelerando & Fill Next
- Elektron style push buttons
- High quality metal potentiometers with double rubber injected knobs
- Skiff friendly (25mm deep)
- Width: 8 HP
