So does the Oxi One. Eight of them per Multitrack.
Oh my god this seems to be exactly what I wanted from the exact company I wa ted this to be made by!
I had the Pyramid and loved it, but hated it didnāt have a grid like the Deluge. So sold it and bought a Deluge but then missed the features of the Pyramid. This seems to be IT!
I think the grid interface is really powerful and still un-perfected. If one could combine the Elektron, Monome, Pyramid, Squid, and Tenori-On workflows all in one hardware device with multiple hardware ins and outs (with adjustable clock offsets), Iād sell a kidney.
Okok hereās why I like usb-c
- you could probably power the whole device from it so youād get rid of a cable
- my computers only have usb-c ports so both sides of the cable can be the same
- I have a lot of usb-c to usb-c cables lying around all the time for other stuff
- 2 seconds less to plug in because thereās no top/bottom
In general it just makes the device feel more futuristic to me if it has usb-c, which appeals to me. At the end of the day, this is an aesthetic machine to do creative work on, I can do all the same stuff in a DAW but I get hardware because of how it makes me feel. Itās not a deal breaker at all but just noting it as something that gives me more/less positive vibe about a machine. I totally accept that itās a silly aesthetic preference but also observe that it plays into some of my gear purchasing decisions lol
Programming patterns while another already playing is a must have capability of sequencers (Tr8s, Cirklon, Pyramid, Squidā¦ it was one of the missing part of Elektron products)
with all the support and engagement youāve given to Squarp since the beginning, they shouldāve been working on it - perhaps it was just one of those āwe canāt do that because it requires an entoire OS re-writeā things. Those kind of limitations exist in the Elektron sequencerā¦they know it would be cool, but itās such an extreme task to disassemble the code.
Ha ha, how many time i though so
Speaking for myself, i will be looking carefully to compare this with the Oxi One, and perhaps the Polyend Mystery Product ( about time for a tease on that ).
I got the time.
That, maybe
Yikes. Need to add torso t-1 to your list
Totally with you, OXI has USB C and a built in rechargeable battery!
would anyone get this if they absolutely have no eurorack gear currently?
thatās the situation iām in. i do want to eventually get some eurorack pieces but how justifiable do you think the price-to-features is without including the cv capabilities?
-do you think its still worth it?
(i change my mind a lot so not 100% on acquiring eurorack later on)
If you have tons of hardware then why not
Good point! I hadnāt considered it this way.
You could also look at it this way ā CV works with stuff other than Eurorack.
absolutely, its got 4 midi din out, trs midi, usb host, usb deviceā¦
thats pretty comprehensive midi for a sequencer.
and Squarp, are really into midi, we know this from the pyramidā¦ e.g. midi fx.
then of course we the cv in/outā¦ you can add eurorack later.
(you know you want to )
lol
Squarp have been saying for a while that the they were reaching limits on ram and cpu on the Pyramid, and its not practical/economic to entirely re-write the firmware with ālessons learntā - even if the hardware might to be able to cope.
so makes sense, they tracked the feedback for when they were going to the next big thing.
but, of courseā¦ the pyramid is still a top class sequencer, just like it was yesterday !
Somebody tell me ā¦ why is two projects so awesome when, for instance, the digitakt has 128 projects ?
I guess Iām missing something. Maybe a digitakt project is not all the same thing as a Hapax project ?
i presume you can be playing one while loading in another and easily swap between them.
Well, I kinda got that gist ā¦ but there must be more than two in total, surely ?
