Seqsual has announced an update to the Blue Set modular sequencing environment, a collection of patchable blocks that can be inter-connected through patch points to create unique customized sequencers.
Blue Set has now more functionality (new blocks) related to serial manipulation of step values. You can sort, shift, shuffle, quantize, scale or align to grid all 16 or selected part of values.
New quantizers and L-Scale blocks have been added as well. L-Scale (library of scales) mirrors the organization of Maschine’s and Komplete Kontrol’s scale function. As the scale definition is shared among Blue Set blocks in form of a Link connection, Link manipulating blocks can be conveniently used to transform scale formulas.
Thanks to the addition of new Sync blocks, integration of Blue Set into Maschine workflow is made easier. Blue Set can now be synchronized with Maschine’s BPM/transport control and be used as a generative source of events, effectively supplementing or replacing the keyboard/pad controller part.
Blue Set costs 36 EUR. It runs in the free Reaktor Player and you can try Blue Set for free with a demo version, which is time limited to 30 minutes per session.
