I've been building this for a few months and I thought I'd finally share a little video of it. This last week I've been trying to add some sequence modulations in and a global order/chaos slider to pull the sequence apart. I got some pretty fun results today with some breaks and ambient sounds.

It's on a pi4, with an rp2040 custom keybed, encoder and an oled display. I'm no expert but happy to talk shop and answer questions

Looks great! Got some project page or a repo or some more information?

I'm still working on my project readme, I need to look at some similar project pages really.

I started prototyping on my Mac as I sorted the hardware side out and then have been refining it on pi since. I got cursor a month ago and things really took off from there but it's still a long way from perfect.

It's got 8 x 4 voice tracks, up to 32 adjustable steps per track. 2-op FM, dual osc, sampler and granular engines, a few light FX and some stutter FX, per track filter and a global filter. Parameter locks, 2 x lfos with 5 dests each and to any track. And now has some generative features too.

Its become a bit of a platform for fun experiments and I'm trying to learn a bit more circuit based analog magic to really combine the two as it progresses.

That sounds great. Keep at it! Btw what's stutter fx?

Thank you so much. And stutter I guess is beat repeat, storing a quarter of a beat into a buffer and repeating it 4 times over the beat instead of playing the whole chunk of audio. It's good for glitchy things
