Move knob
This knob gives you ability to move your whole existing sequences back and
forth. You can also do the same for every single note. Just press the track button
or the desired step button and twist the knob left or right to change their
positions. Oh, there’s also a cool performance oriented feature - click and hold
down the Move knob then indicate the step/s on a track/s you want to trigger -
nice!
Track parameters:
•
Move: Allows you to swipe a whole
sequence of notes existing on a track at
once.
•
Nudge: Is responsible for gentle micro-
moves of all notes contained on the
selected track. Nudge disables roll and
vice versa.
•
Humanize: Lets you choose if Random
button is adding Nudge micro-moves
for notes in randomized track se-
quence.
Step parameters:
•
Move: Allows you to swipe a single
chosen step in your sequence.
•
Nudge: Will gently move the step
you’re currently editing. The internal
per step nudge resolution is 48 PPQN.
The nudge is working to the “right” side
of the original note placement, you
can’t nudge the note to the “left” side
in Seq.

Length knob
The Length knob can help you create polymetric and polyrhythmic sequences
on the fly. To quickly change the number of steps in a chosen track press that
particular track button and turn the Length knob or push down the Length knob
and choose the track length on the grid, whichever you prefer. The step lights in
that track will indicate, from left to right, how many steps you’re working on.
Use Length to select the Play Mode or to set the Gate length too.
Track parameters:
•
Length: Sets the track length from 1 to
32 steps.
•
Play mode: Can breath a new life into
your already funky sequences. Choose
from Forward, Backward, Pingpong and
Random playback modes.
•
Gate mode: Set gate time for all notes in
the sequence (5%-100%).
Step parameters:
•
Length: Edits the time span for single
edited step (displayed on a grid as step
tail).

While working with polymetric drum tracks, especially when changing the
lengths of separate tracks on the fly, you'll notice that your sequence as
a “whole” made out of 8 separate tracks will get “out of sync”. And even when
you'll change the pattern to another, the “play points” of your separate track
sequences won't reset, something that might look like your tracks went out of
sync. It was programmed in this particular way on purpose and is explained in
a detailed manner below in the “Few other words section”.
Roll knob
Rolls are being applied to the whole note length. Holding down a track number
then pressing and turning Roll will gradually fill the track with notes. This can
be very useful in creating dance oriented drum tracks on the fly. Holding down
a step button while pressing Roll gives you options for the number of repeats
and the volume curve. Seq rolls are fast and tight and velocity curve
configureable. The most convenient way of deleting an existing roll value on
a step is to turn that particular step off and back on.
Track parameters:
•
Roll: When applied to a track, Roll adds
steps with an assignable interval
between them. Roll disables nudge
and vice versa.
