Thanks a lot for your answer, John. Hoewever it looks to me that the MOTM-650 is not the kind of a typical analog step secuencer, is it? Perhaps the interface is more like a Roland 404, what is cool but I'm more into step sequencers.
Please, tell me if I'm wrong.
Anyway I think that the Q119 can't be midi synchroniced what makes it to me unusable.
Thanks!
Miguel.

If you can wait I would hold out for the MOTM-650 sequencer.  I have two Q119s and the convenience of stored “knob” settings quickly becomes apparent when setting notes from a traditional analog sequencer.  I tune using a frequency counter and very fine knob adjustments.  Once running, you are very unlikely to change notes, so the need for one knob/one note correspondence is not necessarily true.  Also the ability of a pattern sequencer like the 650 to jump from sequence to sequence provides a lot more variety.

Hello all, just thinking to add an analog sequencer to my MOTM modules, any recomendation? I was thinking about Future Retro Mobius or Doepfer MAQ 16 or even I would like to know if I can use the Q119  Sequential Controller from synthesizers.com. Anybody uses it?

Thanks!
