Korg SQ-64

The Korg SQ-64 is a compact hardware sequencer that lets you control all your external gear. Equipped with a 64-pad sequencer matrix, the SQ-64 gives you four sequencer tracks to control your synths, drum machines and Eurorack modules via gate, CV and MIDI.

You can also use the matrix pads in keyboard mode to capture your playing in sequence. Use it as a master clock for your synth rig, or sync it to your clock of choice via MIDI or audio sync. Whether you're producing in the studio or performing live on stage, the Korg SQ-64 Polyphonic Sequencer gives you the hands-on, instrument-like experience that distinguishes hardware sequencers.

The first three tracks support up to 8-voice polyphony, with mod, pitch and gate outputs for each track. The fourth track is designed as a monophonic 16-voice sequencer, driving eight separate gate outputs along with eight different MIDI notes - perfect for driving a drum machine or drum synthesis modules. That's a lot of creative potential for a compact hardware sequencer!

While the SQ-64 offers the experience of a classic hardware sequencer, its extensive connectivity is ideal for modern music production setups. Two independent MIDI outputs allow you to connect synthesizers and drum machines, while the CV outputs for mod, pitch and gate can accommodate modular synthesizers and semi-modular devices. The CV outputs are designed to support common modular voltage standards, and they can even be biased for optimal performance with devices that require a non-standard voltage.
