Six Sequencer Modes Explained
Acid: Inspired by classic acid bassline sequencers, this mode gives you note-repeat, accent, and slide controls for creating those iconic squelchy patterns. Perfect for electronic and techno production.
Dark: A unique sequencer with a darker character, featuring probabilistic triggers and evolving patterns that create unpredictable, generative sequences.
M5816: Inspired by the classic 16-step sequencer from a well-known hardware unit. Provides straightforward step programming with gate length and probability controls.
Step16: A flexible 16-step sequencer with per-step pitch, velocity, gate length, and automation controls. Each step can be individually programmed for detailed pattern creation.
Hexa: A six-track sequencer that allows simultaneous sequencing of multiple parameters or voices. Great for creating complex, layered patterns.
Euclid: Euclidean rhythm generator that distributes triggers across steps based on mathematical algorithms. Creates interesting, non-standard rhythms that feel organic and complex.
Modulation and MIDI Effects
The four modulation signal generators can be assigned to any parameter via drag-and-drop, with visual feedback showing your routing. The eight macro controls provide additional hands-on control over multiple parameters at once โ perfect for live performance or automating complex changes.
The nine built-in MIDI effects process your sequence output before it reaches your synth or instrument. Use Octave and Transpose for pitch shifting, Scale for quantizing to specific scales, Harmonizer for creating harmonies, Velocity for dynamics shaping, Note Chance for probability-based triggering, Note Echo for delay effects, and MIDI Ctrl/CC for controller data.

Additional Features
The sequencer pattern snapshot system lets you save and recall different pattern variations, making it easy to build song structures with multiple sections. The randomizer generates new patterns from your current settings โ great for breaking out of creative ruts and discovering unexpected sequences.
The resizable interface adapts to your screen and workflow preferences. The MIDI recorder captures your performance as a standard MIDI file that you can drag into your DAW’s arrangement for further editing.

FAQ
What is the AUv3 version for Mac?
The AUv3 format is specifically for Logic Pro users. VST2 (64-bit) is also available for Mac users of other DAWs.
Can I export my sequences as MIDI?
Yes โ the built-in MIDI recorder captures your sequence and lets you export it as a standard MIDI file for further editing in your DAW.
What is Euclidean sequencing?
Euclidean rhythm generation distributes a number of triggers across a number of steps as evenly as possible, creating interesting polyrhythmic patterns based on mathematical principles.
