Seq — Polyend

Description

Polyend Seq is a standalone hardware sequencer designed for Eurorack and broader MIDI use. It functions as a polyphonic 8-track, 32-step MIDI sequencer with 256 pattern memory, and it offers live recording and on-the-fly track parameter randomization. Front-panel access provides quick control over step parameters such as Note, Velocity, Length, Modulation, and Roll, with independent track play modes (Normal, Reversed, Pingpong, Random). The device is equipped with a range of I/O options including MIDI input, MIDI Thru, two independent MIDI outputs, USB for bidirectional MIDI communication, and a footswitch input to control start, stop, and record, enabling flexible integration with other equipment. Its feature set supports both rhythm and melodic work, including the ability to record in real time from external MIDI controllers and to chain patterns for more complex arrangements. The Seq is designed to be used as the heart of a modular setup, capable of communicating with other devices and applications through its extensive I/O and USB connectivity, while maintaining a user-friendly workflow with most functions accessible from the front panel. Typical use cases include studio sequencing of multiple hardware devices and live performance setups where immediate, hands-on control and polyphonic sequencing are advantageous. The device emphasizes straightforward operation and broad compatibility, with pattern memory and automatic saving of parameter changes to streamline creative work.
