Excerpt from the Klee page:
"The electro-music Klee Sequencer is a performance and compositional tool that perhaps could be thought of as an almagm of the concept behind (but not the implementation of) the Triadex Muse coupled to a step sequencer. Klee Sequencing relies upon the composer's innate ability to discern patterns of musical worth from a variety of rhythms and pitches produced through a method that is often impossible to predict through interaction with the controls. Often, through manipulation of a single control or switch, the Klee Sequencer can reveal a new direction or approach to an already established Klee Sequence.
At the core of the electro-music Klee Sequencer is a shift register based rhythmic pattern generator capable of producing three simultaneous and unique control voltage signals along with three corresponding, unique gate/trigger signals from its integral gate bus system.
The electro-music Klee Sequencer derives these signals from bit patterns that are programmed into its two eight bit shift registers either through direct or random means. The voltage outputs are programmed using a row of 16 potentiometers. The patterns are programmed through a row of 16 switches, and the gate bus is programmed through an additional row of sixteen switches.
The electro-music Klee Sequencer is capable of acting as either a 16X1 or 8X2 "standard" step sequencer using "one bit" patterns. With multiple bit patterns, it can produce voltage/gate bus sequences of up to 32 steps. The voltage and gate patterns can be produced in a variety of modes, including full random, random/8X1, 8X2,8/16 step, and 32X1 using various combinations of external signals and mode control settings."
Woops - due to a shipping error these aren't currently in the store, but should be soon.
