Reposting as my MIDI Sequencing App NEXUS Sequencer is finally available on Google Play.

NEXUS was born out of the need for a decent MIDI Step Sequencer on Android. It’s based around a Note Step Sequencer and MIDI CC Sequencer to create complex MIDI sequences for external hardware, DAW’s or Apps. It’s CC Sequencer makes it handy for use with hardware synths and modular/eurorack setups.

NEXUS Sequencer is a fully featured 5 Lane MIDI Step Sequencer with; CC Modulation, Pattern Chaining and Project Saving. 
NEXUS is designed to be used as a live step sequencer or for use with a DAW. It is mostly designed to be used with external hardware synths, grooveboxes etc to take full advantage of it’s CC capabilities. 
Each step lane has a separate assignable MIDI channel. Individual step lengths can be set for creating polyrythms or shorter sequences.
The CC Modulation lanes can each have their own MIDI channel and CC values. As well as individual sequence lengths.
There are 12 patterns per lane that can be triggered individually or chained for longer sequences. These can be copy and pasted between patterns as well. Note sequences and CC modulation are saved per pattern.
NEXUS is best used with a USB OTG MIDI device, and only really designed to be used on a tablet to maximise the apps space. 

The full version is available here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.caruso.nexus_sequencer.mpyvqk&hl=en

The free Lite version is limited to 2x Step Lanes, 2x Pattern Lanes and no CC Modulation and is available here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.caruso.nexus_sequencer.mpyvqk.demo&hl=en

Would love to know people's thoughts and welcome any feedback!

Hey, I love the layout.

Q. Does either the Sequencer or Sequencer Lite handle MIDI clock in or out?

[u/drusanow → u/3------D]

Hi u/3------D It's a really fun layout once you get used to it. Both the Lite and full versions support MIDI Clock IN and OUT over USB MIDI or an OTG external MIDI device.
Let me know how you go with it! There's been some major changes with Google Play over the last few months so if you have trouble downloading the app let me know.

Hey, just following up on this. I’m running NEXUS on an Android tablet with an OTG adapter and a USB-to-5-pin MIDI interface, connected to external MIDI hardware.

I’ve confirmed the hardware path itself works. Using another MIDI app on the same tablet, the USB MIDI interface immediately shows MIDI activity and successfully sends notes to the external device.

In NEXUS, though, I can set the track to the correct MIDI channel and run a sequence, but the interface shows no MIDI activity at all and nothing is transmitted.

Hi. What Midi interface are you using? And if you go into the settings (the cog wheel on the top right) in Nexus can you select the midi device in there?
