Stochastic Scale Sequencer

Generative CV/Gate sequencer with entropy
8 HPEurorackOLED

A melody that never plays the same way twice. Instead of looping a fixed pattern, Stochastic Scale keeps reshaping it: right before every step it rolls the dice and — with the probability you set — changes the note, always staying inside the selected scale. Low Entropy drifts like a hypnotic Berlin School phrase, high Entropy becomes a stream of ever-new notes, zero freezes the pattern.

Features

  • GENERATIVE — one press creates a new 32-step pattern: smooth melodic motion, repeated notes, rests, accents on strong beats and occasional octave jumps
  • ENTROPY 0–100% — the chance that a step changes its note before it plays; rhythm (rests and accents) stays stable, so the groove never falls apart
  • Mutation BIAS — from gentle one-step drift to free jumps anywhere in the melodic range
  • 10 scales + Random: Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, Locrian, minor pentatonic, harmonic minor, Byzantine
  • Scale character — the algorithm leans toward each mode's signature note, so every scale sounds like itself
  • RANGE 0–36 semitones and live octave shift from the main screen
  • Ratcheting — probability knob, up to 8 hits per step, EVEN or FLAM shape; accented steps ratchet more often
  • 4 playback directions: forward, reverse, pendulum, random
  • 20 preset slots — pattern and settings survive power-off
  • Radial Clock display — the whole sequence shown as a clock face on the OLED; the sequencer keeps playing while you browse the menu
  • Internal clock 10–300 BPM, CLOCK IN with automatic external sync and adjustable threshold, CLOCK OUT
  • Optional Analog Drift and ±50 cent Tune
