**Berlin, Germany** – Nervous Squirrel, known for its unique and innovative Eurorack modules, has just released *Turmoil*, a four-channel gate processor designed to inject unpredictable behavior into your modular setup.

Inspired by the recent *DivSkip* trigger processor, *Turmoil* takes gate manipulation to a whole new level. It expands on the concept of “skip” with a full range of “deflection” and “burst” options. The “burst” mode is especially intriguing, creating clusters of trigger outputs for each input or clock tick. Imagine a single clock pulse spawning multiple trigger events, opening up a world of possibilities for rhythm generation and complex modulation.

*Turmoil* features dedicated onboard controls for clock deflect, clock skip, and burst length, as well as a Bernoulli-style A/B chance function, all controllable via CV. This means you can use external signals to shape the module’s unpredictable behavior in real-time.

The four-channel *Turbulence* version of *Turmoil* is particularly captivating, offering an elegant and powerful approach to gate processing. It’s as if Bob Moog dedicated his modular system entirely to manipulating gates.

The module’s spacious layout (each channel taking 8HP) and internal clock allow for a wide range of creative applications, making *Turmoil* an essential addition to any modular setup. Whether you use it alongside *DivSkip* or explore its own unique capabilities, *Turmoil* promises a lifetime of musical exploration and gate-based disruption.
