7.2 S TEP S EQUENCER
The sequencer is a 32-step sequencer.
It allows the creation of several melodic lines (when one of the three available
modulations is affecting the pitch of the VCO) as well as creation of dynamic modulations
of other parameters such as the cutoff frequency of the VCF or the width of the VCO
square waveform.
Click on the “Modulations” tab, then, click on the “Sequencer” button to bring up the
interface.
