Description

This step sequencer is quite unlike the Step Sequencer bundled with M4L.

It's a live.grid based sequencer - notes, gate, tie, velocity and two control changes. What's unique about it is that you can set different loop points for each of those elements, which allows for anything from simple 303-style basslines to endlessly evolving, rotating, mutating melody lines.

The other unique thing about this is that it's designed to work solely within musical scales. The sequencer grid adapts itself to whatever scale you choose. Choose a chromatic scale, and you get a full 12 steps to play with, but choose a pentatonic scale and the grid automatically adapts itself to show only 5 rows (notes). You don't need to know any music theory to get great results.

Add to all that a bunch of useful randomization options and it becomes a really useful tool.

Top tip - Rack these up and put several each in their own chain for mad polyphonic polyrhythmic sequences.

Updates:

2.0 - Working in Live 10. Replaced 2x MIDI CC sequencers with 5x direct parameter control sequencers.

1.0.6 - Fix for unresponsive settings buttons in Live 9 / Max 6.

1.0.5 - Proper naming for automate-able parameters.

1.0.4 - New syncing/clock system. Fixes several bugs and allows the sequencer to lock to song position.
