Sequential Circuits Multi-Trak


YouTube Uploaded by psyfi on Sep 13, 2009

Note this video is from 2009, and I'm guessing this specific Multi-Trak is longer for sale. You can of course check for them on eBay. Posting the video for the demo as it shows some of the multi-tracking capabilities and some sounds the Multi-Trak is capable of. On a side note, I looked into making a TouchOSC template for the Multi-Trak but sadly it appears to only respond to complete patch dumps and not real-time control over each parameter. The Six-Trak has the same sound engine and does support real-time editing via MIDI CC, but lacks the velocity sensitivity and trust me, the velocity sensitivity on the Multi-Trak is extremely expressive especially when routed to the filter with a bit of resonance. It really is a shame their MIDI specs didn't overlap. The MAX and Split-Eight share the same sound engine as well, but I believe only the Multi-Trak had a velocity sensitive keyboard. I guess you could slave a Six-Trak with a Multi-Trak and get release velocity that way [or any other keyboard with velocity of course]. You can find a free MIDITouch iPad editor for the Six-Trak here.

Video Description:
"Running though the different functions on the SCI Multi trak. Showing all keys working. Velocity working pitch and mod wheels working. Also playing and recording to the sequencer and running the voice patches through their dedicated outputs."
