Using an external source to control the sequence steps. - andlr - 05-10-2025
Dear developers. I would like to use an external midi pitch controller for each step of the pattern. This can be achieved by attaching an individual MIDI CC parameter to each of the 16 steps. For example: CC 91 controls the height of the first step, CC 92 controls the height of the second step, CC 93 controls the height of the third step, CC 94 controls the height of the fourth step, and so on. By assigning an LFO from an external controller to any steps, you can get a more dynamic arrangement.

This is a cool idea, unfortunately, there are not enough open CCs that haven't been previously assigned used to accomplish this in an elegant fashion. We did just come up with a very similar idea however and should have a release candidate within a week or so that will provide Mod Matrix targets for each Motif Step, so you can do the LFO thing you're imagining internally, (as far as I know this will only be for v2 hardware). Keep your eyes peeled for that release.
