Why ALPHA exists

Problem

Live Eurorack sets fall apart when timing drifts or menus get in the way. Performers need a clock that locks, swing that feels musical, and hands-on bursts—fast.

What ALPHA does

ALPHA keeps your rig in time and lets you shape feel on the fly: solid clock I/O, transport-aware resets, playable swing, tap bursts and ratchets. No screens. No menu diving. Big knobs, immediate results.

For whom

Performers, improvisers, and tight travel setups. Techno to IDM to leftfield—anywhere timing matters and hands stay busy.
