A playable online prototype of the world’s first 3-dimensional step sequencer, Threequencer, was unveiled at Engage 2021 -- a virtual showcase of sound and visual art from around the world.
Threequencer introduces a third axis to the traditional two-dimensional step sequencer: the new ‘z’ value determines which x/y sequencer plane is audible.
As this sequencer moves in the third dimension, Threequencer crossfades between multiple planes, and interpolates their FX values, creating complex, glitchy sounds from simple building blocks.
