This device is inspired by two earlier Max for Live devices:

Note Trigger Step Sequencer 1.0 by Prebentious

Note Trigger Parameter Step Sequencer 2.0 by dfodel

Known issues:

- If a MIDI note or computer keyboard key is mapped to Reset Now or the randomization buttons, every other press of the key or note will be ignored. Mapping this button works best with a footswitch.

- Live’s automation can’t represent triggering a momentary button. In order to automate Reset Now or the randomization buttons, it’s necessary to automate turning them on AND off.

- When automating Reset Now or the randomization buttons, it’s necessary to place the automation slightly before the time when you would like it to occur.

- At extremely fast tempos or when changing meters, the Reset every x functionality may not work reliably.
