Ideal for experimental electronic musicians or anyone needing tight, evolving rhythmic structures without a huge footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions

While limited to 16 steps, the shuffle and clock division capabilities, combined with external modulation, allow for surprisingly intricate and evolving rhythmic structures.
Absolutely, especially if space is at a premium. It doesn't have every feature of a high-end module, but it delivers a lot of value and creative potential for a reasonable price.
