The musical technique of step sequencing has been around
for quite a while. In fact, the very first electronic
sequencers of any kind were step sequencers. Their appeal
is no secret: they are super-easy to use, and provide both
immediate gratification and a surprising level of
flexiblity despite their limitations. Their hands-on
approach to music making provides a level of intuitiveness
and experimentaition that is unmatched. They are indeed
machines for creativity.
But there are limitations: Fixed numbers of steps, fixed
speed settings and pitch ranges. Limited numbers of voices,
or presets, or routing options. Sometimes these issues are
tied to a serious learning curve, or a cryptic user
interface. And in the case of most of the interesting
hardware options, expensive. Very expensive.
Numerology gives you a step sequencing environment that
provides all the immediacy and experimentation that you are
looking for, but removes the limitations. It does this by
giving you several powerful but easy to use sequencing
modules and a flexible virtual studio environment for them
to live in, complete with audio plugin hosting, audio
mixing and a timeline for building arrangements.
Numerology's sequencers are not primitive modules that you
have to spend weeks configuring and routing with other
components just to get something playable. These are
full-on MIDI and CV step sequencers that on their own are
more powerful than most hardware sequencers, while still
offering enough flexibility to satisfy even the most
die-hard tweaker.
But it doesn't stop there. A full suite of companion
modules can be mixed and matched with the sequencers to
expand their capabilities. LFO's, Envelopes, CV Mixers,
MIDI Generators and processors, they're all there. There is
even an integrated parameter modulation feature that makes
it easy to automate anything from just about anything else.
