Ce séquenceur dédié aux drums est très abouti, simple d’emploi mais très efficace. Les développeurs sont de plus à l’écoute et les fréquentes mises à jour apportent de pertinentes améliorations souvent accompagnées de nouvelles fonctions. Un must 👍🏻

I love this sequencer. It is a small sequencer with such a great interface and great flexibility to create humanized grooves. Works very good within other apps like AUM, with very little resource usage. I use it a.o to control an external machine through midi. The developper is on top of it to update and improve the app.

Still one of my favourites but the clock div has gone again, is it possible to put it back?

This Auv3 is really not of much use without the ability to trigger patterns by midi notes inside of DAWs

The first 16th note in each track is not being triggered or are being choked by other notes on other tracks. Due to which my first kick in a 4 to the floor pattern is coming muted. This has compelled me to use other sequencer apps for a while as my projects have been unusable. Hoping for a quick resolve. Otherwise, OCTACHRON has been a great one so far for drums.
