Playertron Sonar Sequencer

Nov 3, 2022 | Christopher Player

The innovative new Sonar Sequencer from Playertron promises to "push you to rhythms that are normally off the radar and allow possibilities that other sequencers cannot replicate."

"The scanning green line sweeps its circular path to encounter markers organized on concentric rings and output trigger pulses to sequence rhythms. Each marker can be dragged to greater magnitudes to affect gate lengths or control voltages on a secondary output jack. And, at the push of a button, the whole thing goes polyphonic for interesting routing options. A case of convergent evolution, the Sonar Sequencer might look like a tool for submarine guidance, but it was designed to maximize freedom in rhythm design while minimizing the difficulty of going off-grid."
