"In this video, three tracks are being played on S-4. The first track runs a filter modulation on a vocal sample. The second is a drum track with a granular detuning effect, and the third receives notes from T-1."

Build specific melodies with the T-1

video upload by torso electronics

"With T-1, it's easy to create specific melodies and chord progressions. Using step-edits over 64 steps provides ample opportunity to build longer musical progressions. The Cycles function allows you to create automations and transpositions of the musical patterns. Subsequently, it's really fun and easy to move the musical patterns on a macro level and explore different expressions.
Happy sequencing!"

CC tracks

video upload by torso electronics

"T-1 also can sequence and communicate MIDI CC - Control Change messages.
This means that you have complete control over your music and can experiment with random modulation and automation lanes to create dynamic and unique patterns.

With the random modulation curve feature, you can apply it to every CC knob and create dynamic sounds. And if you need to smooth out the curves, simply use the available slew option. To access it, hold down Ctrl + Random and turn a CC knob.

The embedded automation lane, lets you save the CC values for each step. Happy sequencing!"

2. T-1 - performing is composing

"The T-1 is an instrument designed to be played in the here and now. Whether you are working in a studio or on stage, the path between musical inspiration and performance has never been shorter. Make relative parameter changes on one or multiple tracks simultaneously, save the changes or return to the starting point. With the T-1, your music-making process is a constantly evolving flow."

3. T-1 - not your average sequencer

"T-1 is a 16 track algorithmic sequencer at the center of your studio. The T-1 offers a generative workflow with focus on immediacy and playful exploration. Whether on stage or in the studio, the T-1 will inspire you with fresh ideas and help you push the boundaries of your music.

In short, this is a fundamental rethinking of the sequencer as a modern, fun, and inspiring instrument."

Sequential Prophet 5 Desktop, Torso Electronics T-1 & Empress Effects Echosystem

video upload by Nightlife Electronics

"Here we have some beautiful chord progressions and arpeggios being coaxed out of the Sequential Prophet 5 Desktop by the exquisite Torso Electronics T-1 Algorithmic Sequencer. Some lovely spacial delays have been added with the Empress Effects Echosystem.

The sound of the Prophet 5 is instantly recognizable; lush and woozy 1970's vibes, dreamy chords and sizzling leads. Finally available again with the same vintage sound but in a modern build!

The Torso T-1 takes the reins when it comes to arranging and sequencing complex, musically interesting chord progressions and rhythms. A new approach to sequencing that is based on sculpting a set of parameters more than tediously entering individual events and notes.
