New Eurorack module maker Copper Traces has introduced its first module, Seek, a 64-step CV/Gate step sequencer, with legato and an accent output.
Features:
- Any sequence length up to 64 steps
- Five octave range
- Separate gate and accent outputs with per step legato, accent and rest
- Six patterns: Forward, Reverse, Forward-Reverse, Ping-Pong, Random, Brownian
- Multipurpose reset input: Reset, Run/ Stop, One shot, Play Direction, Randomness, Slip-Forward, Slip-Back, Jump to a Random Step
- Internal clock capable of 5 to 250 bpm. The accent output can be set up to output the clock.
- Complex shuffle and gate length patterns are preserved when using an external clock.
- 12 save locations save all parameters for easy recall of complex patches during a live performance
- Cue recalls new scenes only after the current sequence finishes. Use the keyboard to quickly select new scenes while keeping everything in time
- Random algorithms allow for static or evolving randomness that create subtle or extreme note variations. A separate probability parameter controls how often the random algorithm is applied.
- Random sequence generator creates new sequences with one button press
- Quantizer can be set to constrain outgoing notes to any arbitrary scale chosen using the keyboard
- Transpose from -1 to +2 octaves and by any number of semitones as chosen with the keyboard
- Tile function allows for duplication of a section of the sequence for easy multiple bar variations
- Clock divider divides by any power of two from /1 to /64

Pricing and Availability
Seek is available now with an MSRP of US $299, €349 (inc. VAT) in Europe and about £299 (inc. VAT) in the UK.
This looks great.
Placing the keyboard sideways is a clever way to make a very, very compact euro sequencer.
what a cool idea. i can imagine having three or 4 different kinds of sequencers in a skiff.
