Variable Step Chainable Sequencer MK II
This is basically a reface of my earlier chainable step sequencer. Like the original. it allows for multiple units to be chained together and features a variable number of counts (clock pulses) for each sequencer step. There are two versions, the first has a knob to set each step’s value and a toggle to control the gate, and the second has an input for each step so that a set of external values can be sequenced. This is useful for sequencing values for a chord generator, pattern generator, etc. Each version has a m aster module followed by zero or more slave units. The gate and value output for the chain are available at the last module and each module in the chain also has individual outputs. I’m hoping that this version is a little less confusing than the original. Complete instructions are in the patch file.

Notes |
| chain |
poly |
input from previous module. On the master, input from the last unit in the chain. |
| reset |
0 to 1 gate |
resets the sequencer |
| clock |
0 to 1 gate |
clock input to the sequencer |

| Output |
Signal Range |
Notes |
| chain |
poly |
output to next module - looped back to the master from the last module in the chain |
| gate |
0 to1 gate |
gate out from the module - normally connected to gate in on the next module in the chain. |
| out |
0 to 1 modulation |
sequencer output (chain output from the last module) |

Notes |
| Max/step |
maximum step count |
sets the maximum number of clocks for each step from 1 to 48. vThis controls the range for the count value for each step. |
| count for step |
clock count for step |
sets the number of clocks for each step |
| value |
output value |
output value for the step - external input for the external version |
| gate |
gate on/offwhen off (blue) no gate is generated for the step - allows for rests - note: value for the step is still output |
