What it does
Dual-layer engine
Layer A and Layer B each get a sound selector, gain, 3-band EQ and mute, blended with a single A/B mix knob.
Step sequencer
4 to 16 steps with a velocity lane, draw-stroke editing, and 1 to 4 sub-steps per step for rolls and stutters.
Filter sequencer
An independent lowpass lane with its own sub-steps, selectable slopes and a filter level control.
Pulse envelope
Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release on every single pulse, from soft swells to hard, clicky hits.
Pattern tools
Random, copy between lanes, per-lane clear and Clear All, with a live playhead showing step and sub-step.
FX rack and send reverb
8 insert slots with 50+ effects across EQs, Dynamics, Stomps, Modulation, Delay and Spatial, plus a global send reverb.
