Is there a VST drum sequencer comparable to Elektrons?

Looking for a plug in for Ableton that I can try so I don’t have to be at my desk when I use ableton. I thought Elektron was going to release a step-sequencer inside Overbridge in like Autumn 2015, but I haven’t heard a peep about that.

simple answer: no! because you cannot hold a step and change a value with a mouse :wink:

There’s this Revolution drum synth I keep getting emails about:

And also, microtonic (which is now bundled with the TE PO-32) is really easy to use in Ableton.

lol good point. My back hurts though and I can’t hold both my laptop and my AR in my recliner. :wink:

Awesome. i’m going to try the demo.

Maybe Geist 2?

+1 for Geist 2

Bumping this old thread instead of starting a new one, still nothing out there? Mostly looking for probabilistic sequencing. I’m away from the studio but I’ve got my laptop and iPad. Not looking for a full blown replacement but surely there are some fun virtual sequencers out there. Open to suggestions for weird stuff too like reaktor spiral, surely there’s other weird sequencers in reaktor, or even iOS stuff

hmm I wonder how tricky it would be to build an elektron step sequencer in M4L

Not trivial I’d guess?

VST-wise, my favorite is Numerology. iOS-wise, Bram Bos’ Rozeta suite, Patterning and Aphelian (plus numerous others).

Keep a keen eye out for the upcoming drambo on iOS. Also grooverider on iOS has really nice sequencer features, a lot like the new korg electribes but better + elektron trig conditions.

StiX by Xils is a pretty nice one.
Here is the website info on the Drum Seq

Next level Xox Sequencer : Variable number of steps per beat, beats per bar. 4 to 64 steps per bar. Asymmetric & ternary rhythms. Per Step : Custom P.Lock parameters, Divisi, Gate Time, Micro Position, Velocity. Song Mode to organise patterns, steps parameters modulating Synthesis parameters.

FL studio has a “groove machine” VST that is fun to play with and is laid out like an old school sequencer.

Yeah I was hoping someone smarter than myself might have made something, not too surprised though, can’t inagine it would be simple. Pretty sure I saw someone made a machinedrum in reaktor

Thanks for the answers people :thup:
