Sequencer

Features

Work has been progressing on this module. It has also changed.

Here's the preliminary information...

There will be four products derived from this endeavor:

1: The revised MMM format 3-wide main sequencer

2: A 2-wide Sequencer expansion module

3: A combined stand-alone unit housed in a walnut case with a power entry

4: The stand-alone version in a 52HP Euro format manufactured and available from Division-6

The following features have been added to the basic system:

Rows 1 and 3 can be daisy chained to provide 16-channel sequencing.

A user tap-tempo mode that overrides the internal VC or external Clocks providing both timing and gate-length.

Global and Individual stage 0/+1 octave shift.

Three user-selectable gate length outputs: Short, follow(the clock duty cycle) and long.

Row 1 and/or row 3 quantized/linear output selection (1V/O format)

I/O re-design to allow for easy daisy-chaning of multiple systems.

Run-on-Gate input added to allow for sequencer stage advance only during a gate applied to the input.

Ping-Pong and random modes added to directional options.

Manual push-button mute during run operation.

Standard stage advance or, Start-on Stage operation. The sequencer starts on the stage it is set to on the next valid clock cycle without having to preset it to the stage prior to the stage you want it to start on.

Multiple "regions" between the stages that can be user defined for start and end points.

Features added and included in the Expansion Module, the Stand-alone Module and the Euro module versions:

16 independent stage gate outputs (+5V)

Additional I/O to assist with multiple system expansion.

A foot switch jack that parallels the panel pushbutton or, can be configured with a jumper for use with future features.

MIDI output providing note on/off, note value and octave shifts for recording the programmed events on a MIDI recorder.

USB port for updating the software version from the web.

Availability

This module is almost available.
