For stage and the studio applications the BeatStep Pro is designed to perform at all times, whether you work with MIDI, USB, C/V gate or DIN sync. Designed for hands-on hardware sequencing, the BeatStep Pro offers two fully independent melodic sequencers and one drum sequencer. It also allows you to manage full performance, controlling software instruments, analogue and digital synthesizers, drum machines, drum kits and iPad apps.
The melodic sequencers offer up to 64 steps per sequence, 16 sequences per project and 16 projects. The additional drum sequencer allows for 16 separate tracks of sequencing. There are also a number of performance effects such as a looper with touch strip, randomiser, swing settings and other hands on control possibilities that are sure to make this a modern classic. The controller mode allows you to trigger clips in your favourite DAW, play drum sounds in a module or adjust parameters in your favourite plug-in.
