# 10.3 SEQUENCER MENU (EUCLIDEAN MODE)

10. THE SEQUENCER
• Press [PLAY] to listen to the sequence while you are programming it. Press [STOP] to
stop the sequencer and stay in STEP RECORDING mode.
• If you are in SLICES or PRESET POOL TRIG mode, you must press and hold [FUNC]
and then press the [TRIG] keys to be able to add trigs in STEP RECORDING mode. For
more information, please see “8.5.4 TRIG MODE” on page 27.
• If you use an external MIDI controller, you must set it to send MIDI data on the Digitakt
II’s defined AUTO CHANNEL. For more information, please see “14.4.3 CHANNELS” on
page 79.
• If you use an external MIDI controller, the trig’s VEL (velocity) value is determined by the
velocity sent from these and is parameter locked.
• If you press and hold [FUNC] while inputting notes from an external MIDI controller, the
velocity is fixed and determined by the VEL parameter setting.
• If you press and hold [YES] while you place a trig with [TRIG] keys or an external MIDI
controller, the trig length is locked to the time you press the [TRIG] keys or the external
MIDI controller.
• If you add a new note trig on a previously placed note trig, any parameter locks previ
ously placed on that trig remain as they were.
• In STEP RECORDING mode, to avoid accidental key presses, [FUNC] + [NO] does not
reload the pattern. [FUNC] + [YES] does not save the pattern. Instead they work as
described above.
10.3 SEQUENCER MENU (EUCLIDEAN MODE)
The Euclidean sequencer mode uses two separate pulse generators to generate events (trigs) that are
placed as evenly spread out over the sequencer track as possible. In addition to this you can also set a
Boolean logic operator to combine or subtract the trigs from the two pulse generators in different ways.
When you turn on Euclidean mode for a track, the [REC] button will turn blue indicating the mode is active,
and the [TRIG] keys where the generated trigs are placed will also be blue. Any trigs placed on the se
quencer before activating the Euclidean mode will be hidden and inactive while in this mode, but they’ll
reappear when you turn the mode off again. If you want to convert an Euclidean sequence into regular
sequencer trigs, just press and hold [FUNC] while turning the Euclidean mode off. Any earlier placed trigs,
while not in Euclidean mode, will be removed. While in Euclidean mode, it is not possible to add note trigs
manually to the sequencer. However, you can still do parameter locking on the already generated trigs.
Press [FUNC] + [AMP] open the SEQUENCER menu.
PL1 Pulse generator 1 sets the number of pulses (trigs) placed on the sequencer by this generator.
PL2 Pulse generator 2 sets the number of pulses (trigs) placed on the sequencer by this generator.
LEN Track length sets how many steps the track will have. This parameter is only available in PER
TRACK mode. For more information, please see “10.7 PAGE SETUP MENU” on page 45.
EUC Euclidean mode switches the Euclidean sequencer mode on/off.
R01 Rotation generator 1 rotates the trigs placed by generator 1 forward or backwards on the track.
R02 Rotation generator 2 rotates the trigs placed by generator 2 forward or backwards on the track.
TRO Track rotation rotates the trigs placed by both generator 1 and generator 2 forward or backwards
on the track.
OP Boolean operator lets you add or subtract the trigs generated from the two pulse generators in
different ways based on mathematical logical expressions.
OR all trigs from both generator 1 or 2 are placed on the track.
XOR trigs from both generator 1 or 2 are placed on the track unless they are added to the same

sequencer step.
AND only trigs added to the same sequencer step by generator 1 and 2 are placed on the track.
SUB trigs from generator 1 are placed on the track unless generator 2 adds a trig on the same step
as generator 1.
• If you place any trigs in normal sequencer mode, when you switch to Euclidean mode,
these trigs will be distributed according to the settings.
• In Euclidean mode, please note that if you press any already placed trigs, they will remain
in regular sequencer mode when you switch Euclidean mode off.
10.4 MICRO TIMING
Here you can add micro timing to a note trig, moving it ahead or behind the beat. Micro timing can be
customized on any of the sequencer steps on both audio and MIDI tracks. In GRID RECORDING mode,
press and hold one or several [TRIG] keys and then press [LEFT]/[RIGHT] to access the pop-up Micro
timing menu that shows the time offset for the chosen sequencer step(s) on the active track. Press [LEFT]/
[RIGHT] to adjust the time offset. To exit the MICRO TIMING menu, release the [TRIG] key(s). The micro
timing settings are stored in the active pattern.
For more information about the parameters on this page, please see “11.2 TRIG PAGE 1” on page 53
10.5 RETRIGS
Retrigs can be customized on any of the sequencer steps on the audio tracks (the retrig function is not
available on the MIDI tracks). In GRID RECORDING mode, press [TRIG PARAMETERS] twice to access the
RETRIG PARAMETERS page. Hold one or several [TRIG] keys and then set the desired retrig options for
the trig(s).
For more information about the parameters on this page, please see “11.3 TRIG PAGE 2” on page 54.
10.6 QUANTIZE MENU
The quantization affects all micro timed and off grid trigs on the sequencers tracks. Press [FUNC] +
[TRIG PARAMETERS] to access this menu. Change settings with DATA ENTRY knob E and H.
TRACK affects all the trigs of the active track in real time. The higher the quantize value, the more the
trigs will be quantized. Press [TRIG 1–16] key to select track to quantize.
PATTERN affects all the trigs of all tracks in the pattern in real time. The higher the quantize value, the
more the trigs will be quantized.
Press [NO] to exit the menu.
10.7 PAGE SETUP MENU
You can set the length and timing of the pattern and the tracks in this menu. The sequencer has up to 128
steps spread over 8 pages with 16 steps each. The PAGE SETUP menu has two modes. In PER PATTERN
mode all tracks share the same length. In PER TRACK mode, each track can have different lengths. Press
