The dual 8-step sequencer features pitch and velocity controls, providing a degree of control that allows you to create any groove or rhythm your imagination can conjure. Furthermore, EDGE's sequencer can go up to an astonishing 10,000 BPM, turning your beats into mind-melting waveforms to surprise even the most seasoned synth fans!

Controls

Shape your beats and basslines with a vast range of modulation and controls, sending them into a new dimension. These controls include a multi-mode 24dB resonant ladder filter with low and high-pass filers, and three individual decay envelopes for pitch, filter cutoff, and amplitude for fine control. EDGE is able to perform straight out of the box with it's default routing thanks to it's semi-modular design, but if a greater degree of control is required, the EDGE boasts a 15 x 10 I/O matrix for quick and versatile patching options. The matrix includes inputs for Control Voltages, Decay, Trigger, Velocity, Noise Level, External Audio Sources, Tempo, Modulation and many, many more.

The Numbers

With 44 highly intuitive controls, laid out to give direct and instantaneous access to crucial parameters, EDGE puts the enjoyment back into your music creation. Input and output connections include MIDI In, MIDI Out/Thru, USB, OSC 1 CV, OSC 2 CV, OSC Decay, ADV/CLOCK, Trigger, Velocity, Noise Level, 1-2FM AMT, EXT AUDIO, Tempo, Play/Stop, VCF MOD, VCF Decay, VCA CV and Pitch. Connect an external MIDI keyboard, footswitch or expression pedal to the EDGE for a greater degree of control over your sounds and beats. Or if one isn't enough, chain several EDGE;s for intricate combinations.
