i like the immediacy of the elektron way of sequencing. i’ve had quite a lot of midi step sequencers pass through my hands, sequentix P3, roland mc, x0x, beatstep pro, monomachine, OT etc etc
Social Entropy Engine, i had a prototype one, very nice but too much button pressing and a cryptic screen.
Squarp Pyramid, never owned one, looks quite nice, but seems fiddly and complex and expensive.
Cirklon, would love one, but vastly expensive, the price has increased, a long wait time.
I don’t mind the limitations of the DT, i mainly do mono sequencing anyway, if i play chords it’s all done by hand. entering sequences by keyboard is good for me, much quicker that way.
And those trig conditions are a bonus.
