KORG’s New SQ-64 Poly Sequencer

KORG’s new SQ-64 Poly Sequencer vastly expands performance capabilities while providing power and flexibility.
Building on the success of the popular KORG SQ-1 compact 2 x 8 step sequencer – KORG’s new SQ-64 Poly Sequencer vastly expands performance capabilities while providing the power and flexibility to enable production and composition for analog and modular synth users and DAW-centric music producers alike.
The SQ-64 is a 4 x 64 polyphonic sequencer, with dedicated Pitch, Mod and Gate CV output on three melody tracks – the most control output for modular and analog synths of any such product – or up to eight voices of polyphony when connected via MIDI (one Input and two Outputs). Plus, a fourth Drum-Sub track offers a total of 16 trigger outputs – eight CV gates and eight over MIDI – for 16 monophonic voices. Korg’s proprietary Audio Sync provides pulse-based clocking to Korg’s volcas, minilogue xd, monologue and electribes, along with Nu:Tekt’s NTS-1, all without the need for individual MIDI cables to each product.

“Controlled chaos” is built into the SQ-64. With randomization control, users can vary the next step from four possibilities within the sequence, randomize entire sequences or the first step of each sequence, reverse sequence play order and even morph control voltages to inject some serious variations into their compositions. Dynamic and unique performances are made possible by switching sequencer mode. The SQ-64 also includes a powerful built-in arpeggiator.

64 Project memories let the user quickly save and recall Projects, each Project consisting of the three melody tracks and the Drum/Sub track. Every track in a project, including the 16 Sub tracks, has 16-pattern capability, and each pattern can contain data for up to 64 steps. The SQ-64 supports all standard CV voltages and CV Pitch and Mod outputs can be voltage biased. The unit is USB Bus powered or can be powered with an optional external 9 VDC power supply.
The KORG SQ-64 Poly Sequencer will be available in early 2021 for $299.99.
