• added: implemented firmware update / file transfer for the video expander
• updated: SETW command for samples so it would overrule samples or waveforms selected from the sample/wave column is used from the pattern FX
• added: global swing function (project screen) for the internal clock (+- 1/64th precision). Be aware that the output clock is also affected by the swing.
• added: clock change shortcut. If on the clock in settings with any external clock pressing shift+delete will switch seamless to internal clock.

• fixed: wrong text in Sample Retrigger Command
• change: Table Chord Editing. SHIFT UP/DOWN change the note now and SHIFT LEFT/RIGHT the chord type
• removed: round robin recording into a midi track from midi. Records now always from left to right into the columns.

• added: Random Ranges screen which contains a set of 16 different random ranges from 0 – 100%.(press OK on any random value to get to the screen)
• updated: Enhanced the regular random FX functions (Random next FX). These can now be assigned with a range. Beside the random next FX, the random function can be completely enabled for FX columns, so it stays on and all FX values are being randomized within the selected ranges.
• updated: Overrule FX values such as from random, automators and others are now scaled to the real function values. So for example if you have an envelope FX which can be 4 digits and the first 2 digits select the envelope number and attack, then only the last 2 digits are overruled within it’s min/max values.
• added: Random Value for Notes and MOD. These can be randomized now also by one of the selected ranges. (toggle with Shift+OK till you reach R x or RNx. R x selects a random pitch and RNx selects a random note within the selected range.)
• updated: Performance improvements if many functions are running at the same time
• added: view of patternlength on sequencerscreen
• added: Skip playing FX when editing. So the FX you are busy with is being skipped for playing until you leave the FX column again. (Can be enabled/disabled in the Setup screen). Works with FX from patterns and tables.
• added: FX selector (FX Selekta) which opens a FX list with all effects for this tracktype. (press OK on the Fx command column on pattern screens or tables)
• fixed: fix for clock divider/multipliers. If a track was stopped and started later it syncs well with the others.
• added: force clock function so the set clock FX can be forced immediately (if first digit it set to 1) and not only after the pattern is ready. Works now also with applying a new clock in the first row directly.
• added: ADD/SUB/MUL/DIV FX functions. This adds, subtracts, multiplies or divides with a value to the last played FX and plays the FX again. This can be with and without overflow. For example, if the last playing FX2 was MOD 005. The command with ADD 040 to FX2 adds then the 40 to the 005 and a new MOD plays with 045. Another add would play a 085 etc… Same for Mul, also last was MOD 005, now Multiply with 2 and the result is 10(A) which is being played…go on and you get an exponential curve. Multiplies and divisions have a 0.1 digit resolution. Funny to add for a sample offset to get cool timestreched samples (use the ADD in tables to have it run faster).
• added: Midi column overrule channels for note columns 2,3,4. A midi track has 4 columns and each column can sequence it’s own midi channel now (yes up to 4 midi-synthesizers/drumsynths sequenced from one track). The polyphonic settings for the midi channels stay for columns that are not overruled by another channel.
• updated: sega gamepad readout which should work now for most compatible gamepads with all buttons. I can’t guarantee for all clones, but all that I could get my hands on work fine now.
• fixed: midi problem with channel aftertouch input
• added: 11 point calibration and precision for CV/MOD outputs. If you got a good precise voltmeter (and I’m not talking about the 50 euro multimeters or in-rack) you can set more calibration points now for a slightly more precise calibration. There is no new calibration needed, it all converts automatically to stay as it was. The same added for the CV16 expander (firmware for that one following).
• fixed: table issue if table source is the FX Tick and if it is on the same row
• added: new ratcheting and random functions for the local triggers. Values in the trigger column bigger than E0 got a special function now for even and odd ratcheting, random triggers, random ‘ratches’, random gates based on the random ranges.

The CV input automator got no settings yet (for next version). Automator destinations: Track 1..6: CV, MOD, Trigger Length (overrules the next trigger in length), Trigger Delay (overrules the next trigger delayed gate function), FX1..FX4 Overrule (overrules the next FX values), CV/MOD Glide+Steps, All probabilities, Step Overrule (experimental). Sample tracks 7,8: Pitch, Volume, Bitcrush, Distortion, Sample position, FX Overrule, All probabilities, Step overrule (experimental)
• changed: Trigger column overrules the auto-gating from notes. So if a note is filled in and a trigger (from trigger column) at the same step, then the trigger got high priority
• added: Next Random FX overrule in FX column. The next FX value from destinations (0 = random fx column, 1..4 = FX 1..4) will be overruled by a random value.
• added: Old projects from versions older than 1.16 can be loaded
• added: time in sample pattern screen
• added: Din-Sync24 output (for clock)
• added: Edit steps (change in setup screen). Cursor jumps automatically the amount of steps further when inserting a new value with SHIFT + CURSOR-UP in the pattern screen. Be aware that this can be confusing when you are used to insert values with SHIFT + CURSOR-UP. Inserting new values without the steps jumping can be done with SHIFT + CURSOR-RIGHT. You can disable this function to get back as it used to be if the editsteps are 0.
• added: OK button on the trigger column triggers the underlying trigger value
• added: Current running table is visible in the pattern screen.
• added: Table Stop command. Be aware, tables are not being stopped anymore by using a patch. Table stop is the value left of Table 00.
• added: All tracks play (SHIFT + START) from inside a pattern (same like on the sequencer screen)
• added: Simple Screensaver. (Enable in Setup Screen. 0 Seconds = Screensaver off)
• fixed: BRK in sample tracks works now as suppose to be in combination with probability
• added: PAGE UP/DOWN in patch screen
• added: Clone patch with SHIFT + OK on a current patch
• added: Setting (setup screen) to automatically add also a trigger in the trigger column when inserting a note.
• added: Sample offset FX
• added: Note Prelisten when pressing OK on note (works also with SHIFT + CURSOR-UP/DOWN + OK)
• added: Note insertion (note scale) on MOD column. Fast switch by using OK on the mod column swaps between 000, 800, C-0, C-4, C-8.
• added: Screen wrap-around (enable in setup screen). Cursor swaps back to the begin/end of the screen up/down/left/right.
• added: Setup function: Reset all values/settings on song stop.
• added: Highlight rows. The row highlighting from the pattern screen can be changed in the setup screen (eg, 4 = every 4th row is highlightened)
• added: Special FX command with multiple functions: Stop track after pattern ready, Stop track directly, Stop Song, Set/Reset clock output, Pulse clock output, Set/reset RESET output, Pulse Reset output, Reset all track current values, Reset all current values, Goto random position, Resync track, Resync All.
• added: Modwheel input for live manipulation through MIDI (for MOD)
• fixed: Mute didn’t affect the FX column well
• added: Nerd Menu: Reset current Track values, Reset All current values, Resync Track, Resync All
• added: Pattern Names. You can give each pattern a name now. (Add name in Nerd Menu on the pattern screen)
• fixed: Screen edit / key input inconsistencies
• added: Trigger function ‘FD’ will toggle the trigger.
• updated: Many small updates and fixes in the screens and background to get a smoother usability feeling and higher performance. Screen change is now much snappier. Removed many mini-glitches.
• fixed: Basenote didn’t reset when a pattern/track was stopped manually

• updated: When creating new patches the init value for tempo was 128 bpm. Now there is no init value anymore for the tempo.
• updated: Patches from old projects will be updated automatically.

• added: Mute – Unmute functions ( SHIFT+DOWN+START mutes/unmutes the current track)
• added: Solo/Unsolo functions ( SHIFT+UP+START solos/unsolos current track)
• added: When editing in pattern screen: SHIFT+UP+DELETE Removes the current row and shifts all one up from below the row.
• added: SHIFT+DOWN+DELETE Inserts an empty row and shifts all one down from that point
• fixed: Disabled Merge and compact functions which are not usable yet but could have caused problems
• added: the Nerdmenu which can be reached by pressing the Nerd button (SHIFT+AUTOMATE) with several functions:
• added: Undo – undo for the last (and only the last) action in the sequencer or the (same) pattern screen
• added: In pattern screen without marked values: Randomize current value
• added: In pattern screen with marked values: Transpose +1, Transpose -1, Transpose +12, Transpose -12, Flip Rows, Randomize row order, Randomize values
• fixed: for the random generator
• fixed: avoid START, STOP and value change when in mark mode
• fixed: Avoid endless loop when Mark+Insert copy on the first row
• added: Current Values screen. Shows current values of the current track including manipulation of the values (OK on the Triggerexecutes the trigger setting)
• added: Support for folders/maps in the file browsers (take care that you choose not too long folder names, space is not endless(even if they tell you so)), also still there is no alfabetical sorting (which is in fact impossible cause of the lack of memory or it would be extremely ressource eating). So you either copy your files in your order on the sd card or you use some of the directory sorters which are available for all platforms)
• updated: Filebrowser shows now 10 instead of 8 files per side.
• fixed: Midi problem where a gate could stay set when the Midi master send 2 times the same Note-Off erratically
• added: Midi Enable/Disable. Turns midi reception on/off except for sync, so if you want to clock but the NerdSEQ shouldn’t react on midi notes etc.
• updated: Some beauty fixes

• fixed: Connected IO-Expander could interfere with normal button pressing when no Sega gamepad is connected in special circumstances
• added: Kill command for patches

• changed: Delete with moving up and marked delete with moving up. Uses the UP button now instead of the DOWN button. ( SHIFT+UP+DELETE)
• updated: When navigating through the FX types in the pattern screen, the Pitch, FX and tempo settings are getting default values instead of 00. Here tempo gets the current tempo setting automatically
• fixed: that when a JUMP (via break) is active, that another (not quantized) pattern that is selected to play next will now play as expected
• added: Break got a new function. Now if a value in the break function is filled in, then it repeats the pattern X times (value)
• So for break they are these possibilities:
• BRK 000 -> Breaks the pattern after the current position
• BRK 105 -> Player jumps to pattern row 5
• BRK 002 -> Player repeates the pattern 2 times (plays it 3 times) (to break position)
• As the sample tracks got 2 tracks inside and if the repeat and Jump commands are used on the same row, then the Jump got a higher priority
• Also here, if a new pattern is selected to be played next, the repeat function is being canceled and the BRK works like a BRK 000

• added: SHIFT+Pagedown on pattern screen in mark-mode marks all
• fixed: pitch note which works now also on the same step
• added: setup setting to load settings backup (when debug is enabled)
• fixed: ‘do always change’ parameters which work well now for patches and tables. So the same value is being send every time
• changed: system settings are now stored on the eeprom
• fixed: Probability changes now with the current step
• added: clone pattern function by pressing SHIFT+OK. If there is a pattern number already, then a new pattern is created and the old pattern cloned in it
• added: table probability
• added: FX probability
• added: Tempo setting, so the main tempo can be changed from FX
• added: Break FX function got now a jump to step parameter. If a number is filled in and first digit is 1 ( eg 102) then it will jump to position 02 of the same pattern
• updated: Tempo up to 500 bpm
• updated: enhanced groove setting up to 32
• changed: Init probability value is now 100 when editing and not 0
• fixed: of not setting the trigger (and other stuff) well from another pattern in the FX column
• changed: Order in project screen
• changed: Player doesn’t stop now anymore when changing record settings
• added: the display of decimal values
• added: reset pulse (10ms) when stopping the sequencer
• changed: avoid to start record from other screens than sequencer or pattern screen
• fixed: weird deletion when deleting a marked value (fx did weird)
• fixed: the problem where one couldn’t choose pattern 00 anymore on the sequencer screen
• changed: no pattern creation anymore with OK when mark mode is on
• changed: no patch creation anymore with OK when mark mode is on
• changed: slightly changed colour to get better contour

• fixed: issue when deleting multiple MOD values with the Scroll up function
• fixed: edit behaviour for a FX column. When changing the parameter the first value is always 0.
• fixed: text on FX types

• fixed: glitch in patch screen when value changing from an emty patchrule
• fixed: CV when the same note would’t be added in combination with gate
• fixed: volume editing in sample pattern screen

• fixed: the problem that when a whole sequencer row was ‘triggered’ (with shift) while playing that the sample tracks did not ‘trigger’ as well
• updated: border colour changes now when recording

• fixed: an issue where loading a project with a big sample in it could cause problems. Project and Sample loading is improved.
• added: Page Up/Down functionality in the file browser
