NAModSEQ 1.0 is a novel parameter sequencer device for Ableton Live developed by Gross9978. It uniquely combines traditional LFO mapping techniques with an innovative sequencing method. Its programmability includes a 32-step parameter sequencer, allowing for complex parameter mapping across 8 modulation destinations. What sets NAModSEQ apart is its dependency on MIDI notes from the playing clip for sequencing, rather than an internal clock used by most sequencers. Users can experiment with flexible step numbers, potentially creating non-linear, dynamic patterns in their compositions. As of this writing, the device has around 55 downloads and is compatible with Ableton Live Version 12 under Max Version 8.6.2. User ratings and reviews are currently pending exploration of the device.
