Korg SQ-64, polyphonic step sequencer with 4 tracks, MIDI and CV

The Korg SQ-64 is a compact polyphonic step sequencer with a wide range of editing features. Thanks to MIDI, USB-MIDI, CV and sync, it can simultaneously control MIDI sound modules, Eurorack modular systems and software instruments. It features four tracks: three polyphonic melody tracks, each with its own CV outputs for gate, pitch and modulation, and a monophonic drum track with 16 subtracks and 8 trigger outputs.

Each melody track has 16 patterns of 64 steps each. You program them using the 64-pad matrix, where the brightness of the pads indicates the modulation intensity for each step. Use the knobs and function buttons to edit, link and loop sequences in real time, while the OLED display shows the active parameters. It includes an arpeggiator, and you can input melodies and chords in three modes. The enclosure is made of aluminium; power the SQ-64 via USB or an optional 9V adapter. A software package is included.
