Drum Sequencer
An 8-track, 8-step sequencer for your own samples, complete with swing groove, mutes, and solos — build a full beat without leaving the canvas, and tap any lane's trigger to drive visuals too.
What it does
Drum Sequencer is a synth: it turns notes into sound. It has no input and gives audio out, so it starts a chain.
Try it
Send the kick lane's trigger into a Glitch node so the picture stutters with the beat.
