DivKid’s back in the bunker with Joranalogue’s Walk 4, a quad Brownian accumulator that’s less ‘utility module’ and more ‘CV street weapon’. Forget your polite random sources—this thing’s a battery for voltage chaos, a sample & hold with a PhD and a bad attitude. Across modulation, noise, and full-on oscillator duties, Walk 4 proves it’s not just clever, it’s downright essential for anyone who likes their patches unpredictable and their beats crunchy. If you think random should mean ‘boring’, DivKid’s demo will slap you out of it.
