Love those vocal sounds."


Grids overview with TTA Drums from Equinoxoz music solutions on Vimeo.

"This is an overview of the upcoming Mutable Instruments Grids module, a topographic drum sequencer.

Its operation is different to traditional drum machine style programming which often sets all steps out in front of you in rows that you can select and deselect.

Grids uses a different concept where by there is an algorithm that sets the various output patterns and you have options for CVable fills etc.

This makes for entirely different beat patterns and often I found quite a bit more complex than ones I could manually program, moreover it provides this in an intuitive and FUN way which is not to be underestimated.

the module has a tap tempo or can be synced to an external clock, the real fun with this would be combining it with other clocking modules to generate extremely complex arrangements.

Another killer module."
