A new approach to sequencing
T-1 uses a set of parameter driven algorithms with musical constraints that allows for dynamic hands-on control on every aspect of the composition. It lets you dive deep in musical exploration, and create ever-surprising musical structures.
By rethinking how you interact with sequencers, we’ve created an approach where the composition is sculpted with a set of parameters. Much like you would sculpt a sound on a synth. The interface enables a fluent and evolving workflow of modulating melodies and rhythms.
Feature overview
Create Euclidean rhythms, add repeating notes, make arpeggiating patterns and melodic structures.
Add random modulation to every parameter of each track. The randomness can be locked into loops, giving you more control.
Change the musical feel by changing the timing and accent of the notes.
Build chords on the 16 polyphonic tracks. Scroll though harmonies and lock notes into musical scales.
T-1 has 16 banks, with 16 patterns in each bank – a total of 256 patterns are always readily available

Euclidean rhythms
The main source of rhythm generation on T-1 is based on the Euclidean algorithm - a powerful tool for generating a vast variety of rhythmic patterns.
The Euclidean algorithm functions by distributing a determined number of pulses as evenly as possible across a determined number of steps in a rhythmic cycle. By changing the number of pulses and steps together with the rotation of the cycle almost all traditional rhythms can be generated.
As an additional layer, it is also possible to add or remove pulses like on a regular step sequencer on top of the Euclidean rhythm.
Arpeggiating patterns
T-1 features a note repeater that lets you add repeats on top of pulses to build repeating and arpeggiating patterns. The amount and timing of the repeats can be changed. Furthermore, the repeats can be arranged and voiced in different ways to create classic arppegiator styles and much more.
Melodic structures and musical scales
T-1 allows you to lock notes into musical scales and create melodies by modulating the pitch with different melody phrases and looping random sequences. The T-1 features both preset- and user customizable scales. Melodies and chords can be transformed through scaling and transposition using melody and pitch.
Additionally, T-1 lets you scroll through chords using a voice-leading algorithm. The algorithm is based on classical music theory allowing for rich and harmonically pleasing chord progressions.
Randomize everything
The possibilities for musical variation on T-1 are endless. Randomization can be added to every parameter on each track, making it possible to add slight variations to total random chaos.
To give more control over the modulation, the randomness can be locked into loops and scaled. The looped random sequence can also be set to slowly evolve, generating variations on the composition over time.
Ableton Link
T-1 lets you keep track of time with Ableton Link over WiFi. Link is a technology that synchronizes beat, phase and tempo of your DAW and Link-enabled devices and apps over a wireless network.
It lets you play together with the freedom of a live band. All connected devices can start and stop their part while others keep playing, and anyone can adjust the tempo and the rest will follow.
Performance tools
T-1 is designed to be a tool for improvising and performance. A set of performance tools provide access to rapid and radical changes to the compositions in creative ways.
Make relative parameter changes on one or multiple tracks simultaneously, save the changes or return to the starting point. These tools make it fast to create musical progressions or explore different variations to the composition.
Connectivity
T-1 connects and controls a wide variety of new and old devices, making it a great addition to your existing hardware & computer setup. Connect to your DAW and soft synths via the USB port, or to your hardware via the MIDI ports. T-1 also connects to analog and modular gear through CV.
With the 16 channels and tracks you can control multiple instruments at once, allowing it to act as a versatile controller in both large and small setups.

How much is my shipping?
Shipping is automatically calculated before you submit your payment information. Simply add items to your cart and proceed to the checkout page, where you'll be offered shipping options and their prices. In the UK it's normally around £4 for order values under £150, and free above that. Shipping to mainland EU is typically between £7 and £20, depending on the shipping method and the size and weight of the order.
Do you ship to my country?
Almost certainly - the site will give you an estimate of shipping costs if you add an item to the cart and then enter your country and postcode. If you have specific requirements (such as if you prefer UPS over FedEx, for example) then let us know in advance and we'll try to work something out for you.
Shipping methods
We use a combination of Parcelforce, DPD, Royal Mail and UPS for the UK, and for international orders it's either Royal Mail, UPS, DHL or FedEx depending on where you are in the world. If you have a particular preference then try to let us know BEFORE you order so we can look into it for you. Please note that there may occasionally be additional shipping charges if you live in a remote area, depending on what surcharges are applied by the shipper. We'll get in touch to discuss this with you in such cases.
Dispatch times
For UK orders, we normally dispatch the same working day if we get the order before 15:00. If you have a really urgent situation then of course drop us an email before ordering and we'll always do our absolute best to accommodate you.
For international orders, we normally dispatch the same day if we get the order before 13:00 but again, occasionally it might be the next day before we can send it out, and sometimes FedEx or UPS may come a little earlier than scheduled which would also push an order into the next day.
Shipping times
Since April 2020 the couriers we use have suspended guarantees for shipping times, so even though we're paying them for priority services - 24-48 hours for most of the world - in practice it's often an extra day on top and sometimes it can be longer.
There is absolutely nothing we can do about this unfortunately. If you are outside the UK and it's a life-or-death situation where you absolutely MUST have that passive mult for the next day then... it may be better to find a local supplier.
Saturday shipping
If you're in the UK and you order before 15:30 on a Friday then we can send something for a Saturday delivery (NB: this applies to UK mainland addresses only). The success rate with DPD is about 95% so it's worth a punt most of the time. Please note that if you select Saturday shipping on an order placed earlier in the week, we'll wait until Friday to ship it.
Pre-orders
If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.
If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch if you have questions.
