Shakmat Time Apprentice
Key Features
- Take control over your rhythms to create complex divisions from simple clock signals
- Compact 1U size makes it perfect for space-conscious users
- Two-channel clock divider with independent divisions per channel
- Four jumpers on the rear of the module drastically change its behaviour
Shakmat Time Apprentice Overview
Shakmat Time Apprentice is a highly flexible clock divider with two independent divider values with dedicated potentiometers per channel, packed in a compact 1U Eurorack module. Featuring a single clock input, reset input and two variable clock divider outputs, the Time Apprentice is the perfect module to add unique and exciting rhythms to your performances that will set your music apart from the rest.
Manipulate time and space and spice up your performances with unique rhythms and grooves thanks to the Time Apprentice. Each channel has a dedicated set of divisions and a dial to sweep through them, where channel one has a range up to eight, channel two has a range up to 128, letting to experiment with odd divisions for complex odd-meter rhythms. Brimming with features for you to experiment with, Time Apprentice even features four jumpers on the back of the module to modify its behaviour to fit the needs of your performances!

Although shipping in Intellijel 1U format, you can easily switch to Tile/Pulp Logic format by swapping the front panel using the extra panel provided. There's never been an easier way to integrate complex rhythmic divisions in an ultra-compact format to your modular synthesizer, no matter what the setup may be.
Hidden Jumper tools
Looks can be deceiving and that is no exception with Time Apprentice. Four jumpers found on the back let you modify and change the behaviour of the module without any additional patching necessary. The first jumper features three pins and two positions. In this jumper, the second channel of the divider is clocked by divider channel one. This allows for complex, odd-meter rhythms such as 8 x 7. In the second position, the reset Input becomes a second clock input, whereby divider two then clocks from the reset input. In this mode, the reset input does not function as a reset. The second jumper allows divider two to automatically reset divider one, creating some interesting glitching and polyrhythmic effects. Lastly, the final two jumpers independently set each divider to produce half-period gates instead of triggers.
