If you are referring to 2 cv knobs for each step and one gate 'length'
knob for the ∗entire∗ sequencer, then the Korg SQ10 (of which I have one)
has these features over a 12 step range. It also has a third channel with
only positive cv that is handy for cv 'duration' or usual cv control.
It is the only sequencer I own and it is a neat analog sequencer.

[However, I've found that integrating it with my motm modular is somewhat
awkward. For example, I need to use the trig in on 800's but cannot set
attack and decay too short (if I remember correctly, below 2.5)(get very
apparent pops) and typically the gain on the vca must be below unity to
remove background signal before initiating the first step. Am I missing
something?]
