Title: Hello! Anyone chain 2 Keystep Pros together for 8 tracks?
Post by: Greyson76 on August 30, 2021, 04:03:25 am
Hello,

    I’m new to the forum, my name is Greyson and I recently took the plunge and got a Key Step Pro, primarily for my modular gear.  I’m still getting acquainted with all the functions of the sequencer, but so far I’m a big fan.  I would like to go beyond the 4 tracks, it’s perfect for triggering my drum modules, and then the 3 additional cv sequencers goes a long way with my modular set-up, but I have a couple of midi synths I’d love to incorporate into the sequencing.  Ultimately 8 tracks would suffice, so that leads me to ask this, could you use 2 Keystep pros in tandem and have one handle MIDI sequencing and then other do the modular/cv sequencing?

    Anyone try this? I actually have 2 right now, I was waiting for a black version to be released, and decided that it might not happen and I didn’t want to wait any longer.  And a month later they come out with a black one.  So, I figured I’d sell the white one if need be, but honestly I’d keep them both if I could use them together, any thoughts?  Thanks for your help, and I look forward to being a member of this forum.

Cheers!
Greyson

I haven't tried it

But I don't see why not.

You could obviously tempo synth them with midi clock.

They wouldn't change patterns or songs together, so they would have a level of independence
But that would happen if combining it with any kind of other sequencer

I'm sure you could still do a lot of cool stuff with 2

give it a go!

maybe make a video for youtube?
