To select one of the gate timings, first select the desired step using the STEP buttons, then select a note. By 

default, Timing mode 1 “Follow” is selected for that note.  Now

 each time you press the same note, the next 

gate timing will be selected.  The current timing number will be shown briefly on the STEP LEDs as each new 
timing is selected.  The PULSE OUT will also do its best to follow the selected gate timing for you. 

All gate timing modes except Mode 1 work by dividing the incoming clock signal then calculating the needed 
timings.  This works best with steady clocks.  Mode 1 is usually best to use for rapidly changing clock rates. 

 
[1X] MODE 

Purpose: 

Normally, when [1X] mode is 

disabled

, and the playing a sequence reaches stage #16 (or whichever LOOP step 

you have set), it will loop back to step #1 and begin playing the sequence again.   

Enabling

 1X mode is useful when you are cascading multiple sequencers for example, as explained under 

EXPANSION (below). 

Default:  

1X mode is 

disabled

 by default.

 

Operation:

  

Toggle (2 states)

 - Hold PROG/RESET down and tap the RUN button.  The RUN LED will flicker briefly 

for 

disabled

 and blink twice for 

enabled

EXPANSION (Multiple Sequencers) 

Normally, the 3650 will automatically loop back to step #1 at the end of the sequence 

 either step #16, or 

wherever you have manually set a LOOP step. 

The START IN and END OUT jacks can be used to daisy-chain multiple 3650 sequencers together, fire events on 
other modules, or reset the 3650 to step #1. 

 

START IN: 

A gate pulse into this jack resets the sequencer to step #1. It also puts it in run mode if it 

is not already.
