Automated precision in your modular control path.The Griffin’s Claws from Shakmat Modular redefines what an attenuator can do. This innovative module offers four fader-controlled, recordable attenuators that bring automation and precision to any patch. With up to 81 seconds of recording time per channel, selectable linear or logarithmic response, and cascading outputs, this module is made for fluid signal manipulation and nuanced voltage control. Sync to external clocks in free, quantized, or clocked modes, with automatic bar length recognition and precise rate and amplitude controls. Features like Sample & Hold, assignable gate outputs, non-volatile memory for 16 presets, and Select Bus compatibility make this module an essential tool for dynamic performances and evolving studio patches. From expressive fades to evolving modulations, Griffin’s Claws offers both intuitive control and rich automation potential—no CV recorder or attenuator feels quite like it.
