Got a question regarding a feature, if its there or not and if not it might be something to implement.
There is a sequencer by Monolake called px-18 (available as a max4live instrument) that has this function where you can assign a step to be played only at certain loop numbers and also tell a note to be delay the first time it will be triggered, also based on which number of loop it is.
ex:
8 steps:
[bar] <1> <1> <2> <1> <1> <2> <4> <3>
[shift] <0> <0> <0> <1> <0> <0> <2> <0>
so in this sequence all 1's will trigger every loop, the 3rd and the 6th note will be played every 2nd loop, the 7th every 4th loop and the 8th every 3rd loop.
this makes short sequences quite versatile and more interesting/evolving.
also the shift works in a similar way only it delays the first time the note will trigger based on which round of loop it is.
0's start to trigger the first loop, the 4th note will trigger the second loop round and the 7th note will trigger after 2 loops.
tbh i love this functionality and would be delighted if its avail in midibox seq.
