The BQ-10 24-Step Classic Analog Sequencer Eurorack Module from Behringer is a fresh take on the revered vintage design of the SQ-10, which despite its powerful creative ability, was always a heavy, bulky machine. The much smaller BQ-10 can function as a single 16-step sequencer, or it can be split into dual 8-step sequencers (Channels A and B) for additional options; channel C is a separate 8-step channel that can connect an external synth via CV for controlling filter or amplitude.
Each step features a voltage output knob and a dedicated trigger output, allowing shortening of sequences by connecting specific steps to the Reset input. The user can select between eight play modes for channels A and B, while channel C is able to run continuously, depending on the mode. Sequences run on the internal clock in standard mode and can be adjusted from 20 to 500 BPM with the Clock Generator knob. To override the internal clock, external sources can be connected via CV. Each channel features independent portamento control to provide maximum control over sound crafting.
