The MIDI sequencer inside the MOD system is a MOD’ified version of https://x42-plugins.com/x42/x42-stepseq-8x8
So you might have good chance of having some extra features by requesting them to Robin (the author).
I know we have an alternative MIDI sequencer in the works, but I have not seen it yet.
That is one way to go about it, sure.
You can also request a feature in the source code project page, https://github.com/x42/stepseq.lv2
But since you already posted on the harrison forums, perhaps wait for a response there before posting about the same thing in additional places.
Sadly ams-lv2 developer is no longer working on his own plugins.
We can do some new plugins if there is no alternative, but better to not duplicate work if a similar plugin already exists and can be extended to add whatever is missing.
I have not been paying too much attention to ryukau plugins too much, but I have seen the collection grow quite a lot in the last few weeks.
Sequencers can be cool as modulation source (especially CV) but I don’t see it as very essential. Especially because they’re hard to program without a proper UI. I’d rather see that my MOD becomes an uber effect flagship than an average sounding jack of all trades with bad UI/UX.
Agreed. But just once via the GUI for example the note length (varying, overlapping, …), the last step, directions, timebase and possibly the global bar length, … could create very interesting CV/MIDI dynamic various polyrhythmics sequences / modulation source.
That step sequencer was developed for the MOD, and subject to limitations due to that. The plugin is pretty much end-of-live (maintenance mode only).
I suggest to have a look at https://github.com/sjaehn/BSEQuencer or similar projects.
