Ahh this is exactly what I've been looking for in a sequencer! Playability and fun in a small footprint. Will pair nicely with Tempi and O+C. Good job y'all
I was really interested in this sequencer's design ever since Ricky Tinez featured his combined with an Intellijel Scales & Steppy - a demonstration that really helped me start putting together the pieces on the power of modular for techno & live performance. Now that I have one of my own, I can agree that it's a very exciting and fun piece of kit to use. Like all sequencers, it has its own strengths and weaknesses - and I'm really glad that I have it in my collection. Still learning it - which is why I'm here - but already finding it has a pretty short learning curve and already useful in new ambient compositions that may get released on my channel soon!
I am confused why it has 4 CV outputs but only one Trigger output..? does that mean you can't use each CV output without a separate Trigger or Gate from something else if you want send the CV's going to 4 oscillators that are then going to ADSR's..?
I avoid most of your modules because my brain sucks too much to engage in the stacked workflow, but this thing has been a godsend with my drum rack. It makes it so damn easy to spit out stuff to control all those timbre parameters that I want to add some dynamism to without having to rig up a bunch of extra shit to do it. It feels like the Rand button was made specifically for me.
Is it possible to edit a single step without stopping it? It would be easier to judge small adjustments in the wider context of a recorded sequence if it could keep running while you adjusted a single step.
Very good video. I just bought one of these and enjoy it. But there's one badly missing feature: a way to turn off a trigger for a step, for a rest note. I did see the video that uses a VCA for this, but cutting the volume is not the same as blocking a trigger. I guess one could use a trigger sequencer, but ...
So great！I just want to know at 11:24, the long bass pad(which is not 16steps) comes from which sequencer? I am know to eurorack and right now as far I know most of the sequencer are step sequencer, so I don't know how to use step sequencer to make pad voice.
It would have been nice to have the option to hold and tune each step as you’d like it, rather than by trial and error. Rene (for example) allows you to hold a step to precisely tune each one, but the MD does not, which makes for a very frustrating and lengthy procedure
Great tutorial and after getting this sequencer, it really is fun with Clep Diaz and Cursus Iteritas! It reminds me of a smaller different version of Rene but with Noise Engineering spices.
I have an Eventide Misha that I never quite actually got along with. After doing some research and I landed on this amazing module and my Misha is now back in its box waiting for someone on Reverb to buy it. Don't make my mistake, more money doesn't mean better.
Thanks for the upload! Would it be just wrong to use this to trigger 2 drum hits and then use the remaining 2 cv outputs for an osc? I'm searching for a
Great demo, very comprehensive. 👍 just wanted to check, the 4 cv outs can sequence 4 separate oscillators, right? Must get saving! 😂 One more thing, is it 4 channels of 16 steps each channel (like having 4 16 step sequences), or 4 steps x 4 channels, or 16 steps with 4 outputs? Thanks.
@@NoiseEngineering I suppose I was more asking if they are 4 individual sequences and they are all suitable for v/oct... I'm a noob, so like to check! Thanks.
It's 4 channels, each channel is16 steps long.. unless you trigger the "origin" button or input... which allows for some interesting variations on rhythm. as the man says... you can cv_modulate anything .. eg, chnl 1, 2 on 2 oscs... 3,4 on filter... or mult them... a loot in a small unit ))))
that looks like a very fun module, great presentation too. the only thing that seems weird is that when turing the encoder the signal is not interpolated to the steps, is this by design? also would have been great to see a slew function.
It's meant to be a step sequencer, so there is no interpolation, that's correct. We never really considered a slew function, mostly because any other things we could possibly add would have made it larger!
Does the sequence progress a step with every trigger as the Vox Digitalis (seemingly) does, or is it tempo based (x ppqn clock)? Or even better, can one choose?
While MD doesn't do this, we have a handy blog post explaining why and how to do this: noiseengineering.us/blogs/loquelic-literitas-the-blog/give-it-a-rest-notes-arent-gates/
Is it possible to skip a step in the 16 step sequencer? say steps1-4 with note info, step 5 blank 6-10 note info, step 11 blank? or limit the sequence to say ten sequential steps in length?
You can zero any step, but you can't skip a step. We recommend setting it to output only where you want info. We have a post about how to do that here! www.noiseengineering.us/blog/rests
That jam at the end! nudge nudge
Thanks Patrick. You are really good at explaining things.

You are doing some really useful demos. Thanks.
Just arrived can’t wait! Along with Quantas PAX, soleo Vero, sinc Bacina, numeric repeater, Manis, BIA and Ititeras blah blah, love your modules

Brilliant. Great demo, Patrick. SOLD.
Johno Wells well Johno cheers 🍻
This module seems perfect for the groove box I'm putting together! Love it-- on my wishlist!
What a fun looking module and great sounding jam! Looking forward to seeing more demos.

That’s Noise Engineerings’s Loquelic Iteritas
The sequence comes from the qubit octone

Yes please
Are the outputs quantised v/oct so you can run melodic sequences or do you have to manually tune each step?
I don’t have the module, but he says that if you push and turn then each click on the knob is a semitone, so I’d assume it is quantized.
Great beat at the end!!
Lovely device.

@@toonertik brilliant, thanks! 👍
this thing is so lit, please make a 64 step version!!! im about to buy a 2nd!
Can you set length for each step? I mean without having to use an external module to trigger reset
that looks like a very fun module, great presentation too. the only thing that seems weird is that when turing the encoder the signal is not interpolated to the steps, is this by design? also would have been great to see a slew function.

Can the step count be adjusted in any other way that using the Clep Diaz? If so, how?
There is no internal function like this, but you can use a clock divider or trigger sequencer to reset MD and change the number of steps.
Mini Rene on stereoids🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
What I was just thinking 😅🎯
I was wondering if it has a quantize function
you single handedly outranked all retrowave artists with that jam
Does the step move forward with every trigger? Or would the CV step move forward even if there isnt a trigger (i.e. by using a clock input)?
Does the sequence progress a step with every trigger as the Vox Digitalis (seemingly) does, or is it tempo based (x ppqn clock)? Or even better, can one choose?
Mimetic Digitalis advances each time it receives a trigger.
@@NoiseEngineering Cool! IF advance=trigger THEN want 👍🏻
It only needs to be able to mute steps of the sequence to be a much more than perfect sequencer.

@@NoiseEngineering Thanks for replying, v. informative link!
can you mute a step?
This! Please NE, add a step mute via FW!
basic feature that is missing in sooo many sequencers... SMH
damn...stop this eurorack demos banking account is not made out of rubber:/
I like this one.
12,18min wtf!!!! sound's crasy
If it doesn't have 16 knobs/sliders, one for each step, then it's not actually optimized for live performance/changing steps on the fly.
Can this be run with gate?
Wow this looks like a super fun sequencer perfect for small setups. Would pair well with my two Noise Engineering modules.
I just wish it was a tad bit bigger for my hands
is it possible to reset the sequence? like the classic "reset input"?
Use the O ("Origin") input to go back to the first step.
I have been told that this is not similar to the voltage block, but I can't help making the comparison.
hmmm, more like Rene?
it is like rene...
