Bastl Instruments Popcorn

Compact, but incredibly musical sequencer/quantizer/arpeggiator – you name it! Popcorn sequencer embraces the idea of making a selection of 8 notes that can be browsed in many different ways. It all just depends on the signals you feed it with.

It is incredibly musical when used with a rhythm sequencer such as Knit Rider because it has two triggers A and B which will go 1, 2, 3, or 4 steps forward or backward depending on the settings of the dedicated knobs. You can also address the steps with CV or 3 binary gates. You can use CV to transpose the pitch or transpose it in a quantized way or change minor major settings of the quantizer with the gate.
