"The fatController, a sturdy 16-note sequencer from Australia's Frostwave, is intuitive to use and comes with plenty of features. is a must-have for anyone using their modular system as a performance or recording device.
This unit will work with all analog modular synths.
The fatController's cream-colored chassis measures 9.5 inches wide by 8.0 inches deep. The 16 sliders are lined up in two parallel rows of eight and offer the right amount of resistance when moved. That makes it easier to zero in on notes, and jostling the unit isn't likely to move a slider and mess up your sequence. Additionally, the sliders are well spaced, so you can comfortably tune individual notes without disturbing the others.
The fatController's two modes of operation are Serial and Parallel. In Serial mode, you get the full range of 16 notes from the CV A output: row A plays first, followed by row B. In Serial mode, the CV B output gives you only the notes set up in row B.
The Modifier buttons beneath the sliders, in Global or Function mode, give you control over a variety of aspects of the sequence. For example, in Global mode, the Direction button allows you to play the sequence forward or backward or loop it forward and backward. The Groove button, on the other hand, lets you add one of eight swing settings to your sequence.
To change the overall tempo, hit the Function button until the LED next to Speed lights up. Then, hit one of the eight buttons below the sliders to choose one of eight tempo ranges: button 1's range is the slowest, and button 8's is the fastest. Now you can tweak the tempo knob to taste.
In a similar way, you can easily add rests, change the octave of a note, or change the number of steps in the sequence. Such an intuitive interface is what makes this a great sequencer for real-time performance."
