• 32 step 8 track drum seq, each step has trig/acc/roll
• 16 patterns, will be expanded when seq is up and running
• patterns are saved on a bankstick
• most (all) functions can be executed while running
• 24 PPQ

note that these features are not final!

• lcd: displaying (bpm pat trknr edited_par)
• 32 step buttons + stepleds, leds are dual color to display trig/acc
  • step edit behaviour: step off/trig/trig+acc
  • all functions are accessed with a stepkey + shift combination
  • pattern selection: stepkey + pattern button
  • track select/mute: stepkey + track button

• rotary encoder for bpm, also used for editing values

• first prototype
• new layout design
• ledmatrix/buttonmatrix finished (see matrix page)
• frontpanel finished/wired
• first take on controll surface handler (step, track and pattern handling)
• sequencer works, timing is not stable yet
• made a temporary case
• fixed flickering leds when pushing a button

most of the software will be written in C, some of the critical parts will be optimised in ASM to increase performance

the software will be based on the midibox clockbox example ^uCApps

• Data structure

• Application code
  • Bankstick code
  • Control surface code
  • Sequencer code

Components:

• CORE module CORE Module ^uCApps
• DOUTX3 DOUT Module ^uCApps
• DINX1 DIN Module ^uCApps
• BANKSTICK BANKSTICK Module ^uCApps

The leds/buttons are wired in a matrix configuration to reduce the number of DIN/DOUT modules needed DSEQ32_matrix

First prototype:

forum topic

used for development of data structure, bankstick code, sequencer core

New version:

• Construction of frontpanel
• Wiring of the 32 step leds/buttons
• Testing of the step buttons with the SM_example application
• Testing of the step leds with modified SM_example app (modified version includes leddriver)
• Development of user interface code
