Description
Step into the world of modular synthesis with the SSF / DivKid RND Step, a versatile random voltage generator designed to add a touch of unpredictability to your soundscapes. Ideal for both beginners and seasoned synthesists, this module brings an element of excitement to your modular setup. With its ability to produce stepped random voltages that can be clocked externally, the RND Step is perfect for creating evolving patterns and textures.
The RND Step features three independent channels, each capable of generating unique random voltages. This makes it an excellent choice for driving multiple parameters in your modular rig simultaneously, from pitch to filter cutoff, and beyond. Its intuitive layout ensures that you can easily harness the power of randomness, without getting lost in complexity. Each channel boasts its own clock input and slew control, allowing you to shape the randomness to suit your musical needs.
Whether you're looking to add subtle variations to your sequences or create wildly unpredictable modulations, the SSF / DivKid RND Step offers a diverse range of possibilities that can transform your modular workflow. Its robust construction and high-quality components ensure reliability and longevity, making it a valuable addition to any Eurorack system.
Key Features:
- Three independent random voltage channels
- External clock input for each channel
- Slew control for smoothing random voltages
- Versatile modulation capabilities
- High-quality build for reliable performance
- Compatible with Eurorack systems

Reviews
Owner Insights
We analyzed real musician discussions from forums and Reddit to find what players love, question, and tweak about SSF / DivKid RND Step.
Features and functionality
-
The RND Step module is expected to hold pitch accurately but can have issues with voltage droop, affecting tuning stability.
Source -
The RND Step is described as a "High precision" module, yet some users experience pitch inaccuracies, suggesting potential manufacturing variability or setup dependencies.
Source -
The SSF Divkid RND Step is being redesigned due to unavailability of certain parts, indicating potential improvements in the new model.
Source -
The RND Step has an idiosyncratic behavior, tending towards 0V about 50% of the time, which can be useful for predictable outcomes with less frequent variance.
Source
Use cases and applications
-
Users often attempt to use the RND Step in a setup where quantization occurs before sampling, but this can result in pitch drift due to voltage droop.
Source -
Owners utilize the RND Step's six values, with three capable of sampling and holding external signals, offering versatility in patching scenarios.
Source
Setup and maintenance
-
Voltage droop issues in the RND Step may be exacerbated by power supply limitations in the modular setup, as indicated by noise when certain modules are connected.
Source
Comparisons
-
Mutable's Kinks S&H module is highlighted for its reliable performance compared to the RND Step when dealing with voltage holding.
Source -
The ADDAC215 is praised for its low voltage droop and additional features like a slew limiter, making it a preferred choice over simpler S&H modules.
Source -
Compared to the Wogglebug, the RND Step provides a different approach to randomness, focusing on controllable random values rather than chaotic outputs.
Source
User experience
-
Users anticipate the new RND Step model and note that existing units may become more available if parts issues are resolved.
Source -
Users appreciate the RND Step for its unique tendency to lean towards 0V, which is beneficial in specific musical contexts where predictable randomness is desired.
