Subject: sequence the SDS-V

From: nuipb1@...

Hi Group,


Is there any such thing as an adequate sequencer for the SDS-V other than the MTM ?

Ideally one that you could record with from pads and that would record the triggers of course, but also velocity and that could be clocked externally.


I found this idea here:

Simmons SDSV with MFB SEQ-01

but as far as I know the MFB SEQ-1 supplies only Accent (that is 2 levels of voltages) not all the voltage range between 0V & 1,5V (1,5V being the maximum voltage via the Pads inputs right ?)


I also heard about connecting each SDS module input to a separate output of a Roland TR-707 for example, but I believe the TR-707 has only accents too (I'll have to check on that), so no velocity.


So what nice solution did you guys find for this job ?
