Sequencer Powerhouse

Stepic isn't just a powerful and versatile polyphonic step sequencer. 8 additional and fully integrated modulation sequencers make it a true sound shaping tool. Use them to automate any parameter (e.g. Filter Cutoff, Wavetable Position, Effect Amount) of your favorite synthesizers or effect devices. With its support for MIDI CC, Stepic offers you parameter control for both software plug-ins and hardware devices. 

By assigning different tempos and sequence lengths to the modulation sequencers, Stepic lets you create deep, polyrhythmic parameter progressions that add a lot of motion and uniqueness to your sound. And if that's not enough, bring the 200+ random generators into play ;-) 

Host / DAW Support

To modulate device parameters, Stepic generates MIDI CC messages and sends them to your software plug-ins and hardware devices. For this to work properly, your host must support the passing of MIDI CC messages generated by Stepic. We have already successfully tested Stepic with these hosts:
