Design rhythmic bursts with the sequencer

Turn individual takes into repeating patterns and one-shot gestures.

RELAYER sampler with four loaded layers and detected variations

Set the rhythm

Enable the sequencer on the layer you want to repeat. Use shots per second for sound effects, or tempo sync for straight, dotted and triplet beat divisions.

Explore pitch patterns

Combine pitch range with a sequence mode to create rising, falling or more unpredictable bursts. Start with a narrow range when the source needs to retain its identity.

Try a one-shot strum

Use strum mode when the sequence should play as a single gesture. Capture different rates and pitch patterns, then choose the timing that fits your scene.
