Bridging the gap between human performance and algorithmic generation, the Cre8audio Programm packs the speed of a hardware step sequencer with the randomness of generative algorithm to create a creative playground of music exploration.
Whether you’re meticulously stepping in to play a melody or using real-time randomization to find new textures, PROGRAMM keeps up with your brain. You can step-record a pattern or let the machine take the lead and with the deep generative tools and real-time randomization the results are always musically spectacular. Programm speaks to your modular hardware synthesizer and you favorite MIDI module, thanks to the 3.5mm TRS MIDI I/O. Use the six orange knobs to tweak the main parameters per step, with speed and without menu diving. Designed to be the ultimate sketch pad that can deep dive. Fast enough for your first idea, deep enough to take you the whole way.
- Hybrid Connectivity: 12 dedicated MIDI sequencers alongside robust CV/Gate outputs (two melodic, eight drum/trigger). It speaks Bilingual fluently, controlling Eurorack and MIDI gear simultaneously.
- The Soul-Saver Recall: Never lose a moment of inspiration. PROGRAMM features an always-ready recall function that captures sequences even if you forgot to hit record.
- Tactile Control: 5 (plus one master) signature orange knobs provide instant access to pitch, gate length, ratcheting, note offset, and step conditions. No menus—just tweaking.
- Dynamic Visual Interface: The 32-step pad grid doubles as a high-visibility dot-matrix display, providing a rad lightshow while relaying crucial data on scales, tuning, and randomization.
- Generative Power: Four customizable pattern-generator algorithms and deep randomization tools allow users to create controlled chaos that remains musical and locked to a user-defined scale.
- Standalone 12-channel MIDI and CV sequencer works with both midi and eurorack synthesizers
- Four monophonic melodic sequencers with MIDI (2 with dedicated analog pitch, CV, and gate outputs)
- Eight drum sequencers (all with dedicated gate outputs)
- Dedicated parameter controls for pitch, gate length, ratcheting, CV/CC, note offset, and step conditions
- Customizable randomization of all parameters by step and/or by sequencer
- Sequencer lengths up to 64 steps. Each sequence can have a different length
- 32-step grid functions as step programmer in step mode, grid keyboard in live mode, and dynamic information display while adjusting parameters
- Save up to 64 patterns and 32 songs
- Select key and scale
- Six groove modes expand far beyond classic swing
- Four customizable pattern generator algorithms provide a wide range of starting points to build a great pattern
- Assignable chance CV input works with any of the six parameters of one or all of the sequencers
- Supports external MIDI controllers for programming sequences
- Robust clear, copy, paste, and recall functions
- Comprehensive internal and external clocking options
- Four melodic sequencer modes (mono, chord, arp, and chip (chord + arp)
- Can be used standalone in its included case or removed and used as a Eurorack format module
