Agreed. Even other well known KZbinrs make it confusing (or more confusing and ambiguous) and don’t explain it well

Thank you. I'm inexperienced with all this. I've been watching lots of videos on the BeatStep (I'm at the point of having ordered it but still waiting for delivery, I had misunderstood "last step" and your explanation of "gate" was helpful. I've looked at the Lone Star School of Music channel and there's videos with titles about stuff I want to learn about, I'll certainly be giving those a go, thank you. I'm in my mid 50s now, I was discussing with a friend how our (musical) lives could have been so much different had we had iPads and GarageBand as kids, along with free learning resources. I was deep into my first ever instrument, sax, in the mid 2000s and there was almost nothing online for me. Sadly, I have some physical issues that forced me to stop sax/wind controller and drums some time ago. I'm so excited to be thinking about creating music again. Daunting by getting to grips with the DAW side of things, so really happy to be getting the BeatStep, which will ease me into Abelton Live Lite.

I've looked at one after another after another, the seq in my micro freak and in my minibrute 2s... but no matter what the arturia beatstep just seems to be the most straight forward straight up powerful sequencer.

I’ve been watching tutorials on this for 3 days and this was by far the best. I have a question. How do I set it so that I can sequence 2 Roland boutiques via MIDI, but without any midi clock? The boutiques receive clock via usb from the mx1 mixer, so I only need to sequence the actual riffs but not the clock. How do I set this up, and how do I have sequencer 1 & 2 to the 2 boutiques with the 1 Midi out? Really appreciate this tutorial and it was loads better than all the others I’ve been watching.

128 is a round number in binary. One less than it, 127, is the equivalent in binary of a number that's all-9's - it's the biggest value you can fit in a given number of digits.

Question - is there any device that I can load a few of my own (wav) samples with - and then trigger those samples using an external midi device by sending only one midi note? I have a Roland SPD-SX and it has no sequencing capabilities. I have a kick drum trigger that fires a wav file in the SPD-SX - Since the SPD-SX has Midi out, I am trying to use the midi out note (from the kick drum) and have it step through a sequence of Wav files. I am looking for this type of device - any help would be appreciated - Thank you in advance

You are not looking for a sequencer but a sampler and pretty much any current gen sampler can do what you need
