Gotharman Unveils Tuul: 4‑Channel Eurorack Multi‑Function Workhorse Module

Gotharman of Denmark revealed the Tuul on January 6, 2026, a 12HP, 4‑channel Eurorack module that can configure each channel independently as an effects processor, oscillator, filter, or an 8‑step modulator. Its compact footprint, deep feature set and four CV inputs position Tuul as a potential all‑in‑one alternative to small utilities such as Expert Sleepers’ Disting and FX Aid.

Gotharman revealed Tuul (sometimes stylized TuuL) on January 6, 2026, introducing a compact four‑channel module that packs modular utility, sound design tools and effects into a 12HP package. Each of Tuul’s four channels can be set independently to operate as an effects processor, oscillator, filter or an 8‑step modulator, giving patchers immediate flexibility without claiming extra rack space.

The effects side lists a wide roster of algorithms including granulator, reverb, delay, chorus, comb filter, compressor and pitch shifter, among other treatments. Oscillator choices span common waveforms such as sine, triangle, saw and square, plus FOF and cymbal variants for percussive and metallic timbres. The filter delivers dual and vowel modes, with vowel mode supplying a large table of morphable vowel and formant shapes for vocal-like filtering and spectral shaping. The per‑channel 8‑step modulator supports rise, fall, curve, hold and ripples per step for nuanced sequencing and modulation.

Tuul’s interface centers on a color OLED, three encoders and straightforward controls, and the module includes 30 memory slots for saving channel configurations and patches. I/O provides eight inputs and four outputs plus four CV inputs for automation and hands‑off control. Those connectivity options make Tuul useful as an effects hub, tone generator, or modulation engine in small rigs or as a multifunction utility in larger systems.

Preorders opened immediately at an introductory price of €395, with the intro price valid until February 1, 2026. Shipping is expected mid‑February 2026. The combination of a modest 12HP footprint, per‑channel versatility and onboard presets aims to address a common need in the community: consolidating multiple utilities and processors into a single module that is both performance friendly and studio ready.

For performers and modular builders looking to maximize functionality per HP, Tuul offers practical value by reducing the need to dedicate several modules to effects, oscillation and sequencing. Its modulation and CV routability make it straightforward to automate complex textures during live sets or integrate into patchwork sound design. With preorders underway and shipping slated for mid‑February, Tuul is positioned to become a compact workhorse for players seeking flexible multi‑function tools.
