Tap your beat!
Far beyond basic step sequencing logic, the Four Bricks Rook brings a highly intuitive interface to all your rhythmic duties and provides a diverse array of features including CV addressable memory of 128 thirty-two steps tables where you can store your own sequences, precision timing to allow non–quantized/off-beat rhythms, an auto randomizer/pattern filler, and four modes defining the pad's behavior: play & record, recall patterns, play fills, or mute your sequences.
Features
- Variable length sequences (up to 32 steps)
- Shift function scanning through different segments of the sequence
- Non-volatile memory allowing to store and recall patterns (16 slots of 8 - 4 tracks / 32 steps - patterns)
- Potentiometer and CV input for table addressing
- Quantize function per track
- Two playing buffers A and B
- Play Mode allows to play and record your sequence on pads
- Table Mode allows to read and load sequences stored in the non-volatile memory
- Fill Mode allows to use the tables in a more dynamic way
- Mute Mode allows to mute tracks and erase part of the sequences
- Random generator allowing to automatically fill the sequence or create random sequences
- Adjustable trigger length per track
- Current state (buffers / rndm / pointed slots / trig length) storing
- Factory tables including pre-programed beats and specials clock divisions such as triplet ones
- Elektron style push buttons
- High quality metal potentiometers with double rubber injected knobs
- Bi-polar (-5V - +5V) CV inputs
- Skiff friendly
