Hi all, Someone just forwarded a list of features for the Future Retro sequencer (777 w/o monosynth) that's forthcoming from the Flickinger family: ================================================================= *Pattern blocks-link multiple patterns to loop in realtime. *Pattern shifting-moves patterns left or right, in realtime, from where the currently are. *An added note entry method. *Step LED's will blink sequentialy to show what step is currently being played. Front panel will have these 1/4" outputs for analog and modular users CV Gate (selectable between positive gate and S-trig) Trigger Accent Accent/Gate 2 16th note Clock (for arpeggiators, analog sequencers or divider circuits) Reset (For reseting analog sequencers or dividers) Back panel will feature the following: Midi In/Out/Thru and Din sync out. The sequencer will be able to perform as a interface as well for connecting just about any gear to any other gear. The Unit can perform as a midi to CV converter, Midi to Din Sync converter, Midi to analog clock, or control other midi gear. Expected price is $300. ================================================================= Looks like a winner!!!!!!!!!

This means that the musician can play his instrument long before a concert, because the computer can play the instrument again at the right time... The musician can sit in the audience and listen to the concert. He can even be hundreds of miles away, eating dinner or taking a nap." - Funk & Wagnalls Young Students Encyclopedia 1973
