I wish everyone explained equipment as well as you! I watch reviews that tell me what they do but I seldom know any more than when I started. Excellent job!

Agreed. Even other well known KZreadrs make it confusing (or more confusing and ambiguous) and don’t explain it well
Man, why can't Alturia actually explain their own gear this well? Thank you... finally. Now I'd like to see it paired with the Mini Freak:-)
Thank the gods for this video. I've been a pianist for two decades but I've always been confused on sequencing and how electronic music is made. Makes way more sense now!
Thank you. I'm inexperienced with all this. I've been watching lots of videos on the BeatStep (I'm at the point of having ordered it but still waiting for delivery, I had misunderstood "last step" and your explanation of "gate" was helpful. I've looked at the Lone Star School of Music channel and there's videos with titles about stuff I want to learn about, I'll certainly be giving those a go, thank you. I'm in my mid 50s now, I was discussing with a friend how our (musical) lives could have been so much different had we had iPads and GarageBand as kids, along with free learning resources. I was deep into my first ever instrument, sax, in the mid 2000s and there was almost nothing online for me. Sadly, I have some physical issues that forced me to stop sax/wind controller and drums some time ago. I'm so excited to be thinking about creating music again. Daunting by getting to grips with the DAW side of things, so really happy to be getting the BeatStep, which will ease me into Abelton Live Lite.
Best tutorial on sequencing I've seen. Help immensely
That was excellent you explained that very well.
Helped me get to grips with it, even Arturia assumes previous knowledge. Very useful, thanks.
Excellent demo! Thorough and easy to follow!
that was such an interesting and comprehensible way of explaining this whole subject, thank you very much!!
This video was that ah ha! Moment for me. Man. Arturia didn’t even explain it like this. Yesssssssssssssssssssssssss!🙌
I've looked at one after another after another, the seq in my micro freak and in my minibrute 2s... but no matter what the arturia beatstep just seems to be the most straight forward straight up powerful sequencer.
best explanation ever!
Quiet and clear explainations. Thank you.
128 is a round number in binary. One less than it, 127, is the equivalent in binary of a number that's all-9's - it's the biggest value you can fit in a given number of digits.
great video .. just bought the beatstep .. a neutron and I have micro-brute .. Im a newb ... thanks for sharing ..
You couldn’t explain it better 🙏🏻👏🏻✨ thank you so much!
Was looking for this exact video. Thank you soooooo much. 🙏.
I am trying to get my sequencer I just bought make coffee and toast in the mornings and answer the phone!!! This makes getting into hardware sequencing much less of a pain, very well explained in simple terms.
thank you. you explained everything super easily. now I can tell my friends what the sequencer is doing. 🥳
OMGosh.....THANKS A LOT Sir!
So, what kind of midi cable would i need to sequence my volca bass with the beatstep?
I’ve been watching tutorials on this for 3 days and this was by far the best. I have a question. How do I set it so that I can sequence 2 Roland boutiques via MIDI, but without any midi clock? The boutiques receive clock via usb from the mx1 mixer, so I only need to sequence the actual riffs but not the clock. How do I set this up, and how do I have sequencer 1 & 2 to the 2 boutiques with the 1 Midi out? Really appreciate this tutorial and it was loads better than all the others I’ve been watching.
What a great tutorial video. Thank you for posting it. I've been trying to get to grips with the Beatstep Pro that I just bought.
Thanks! Very clear and helpful.
Great video! Helped me a lot
Cool video had the beatstep for a while now so knew all you shared. I watched the full video however because you did such a really awesome of explaining it's functionality ..
Well done my friend, love that!
Easier said than done … I’m getting some live beats. And they sound amazing.. but I’m always stuck with wich machine is in wich sequencer .. it’s bloody confusing../I’m glad I own it but it’s very very challenging
Thanks for that helpful video. I wish I'd bought the beatstep and not the 2 keysteps for each of my synths :(
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing this.
🖤
Thanks for this!
very nice, thank you
Great tutorial
Can this sequencer be used with a vst such as Arturia Analog 4, which I use with an arturia midi controller and reaper daw? Or a synth vst such as surge? Or is a hardware synth required?

Yes you can use it with soft synths and daws
Yep great video. I have the Keystep 25 midi’d to a Korg Monologue. How would I connect it to a Korg Volca drum so I can sequence a drum pattern? I have a MIDI Quadra Thru box as well. Can my Keystep start a sequence on one or both of those machines when I want them to play together?
If you have not a synthesizer or modular synth how is it work??
Question - is there any device that I can load a few of my own (wav) samples with - and then trigger those samples using an external midi device by sending only one midi note? I have a Roland SPD-SX and it has no sequencing capabilities. I have a kick drum trigger that fires a wav file in the SPD-SX - Since the SPD-SX has Midi out, I am trying to use the midi out note (from the kick drum) and have it step through a sequence of Wav files. I am looking for this type of device - any help would be appreciated - Thank you in advance

You are not looking for a sequencer but a sampler and pretty much any current gen sampler can do what you need

Ah just realised .. I have already commented ha ha ha 👍
127 is just one off 128 Geometric series easily identifyible same as bit rate or memory size in computers. That is why they would have made it that way when midi was first invented

11:45 and what do I use to select last step on the Arturia Beatstep?

You mean on the non-Pro model? From the manual 6.3.3.4 Pattern Length - it say's : To select a new Pattern Length, hold the SHIFT and CHAN buttons and then press the pad that corresponds to the desired setting. Hope that helps. Cheers.
After the 2.0 update, what is the maximum number of steps on the Beatstep? Still 16 without chaining sequences?

How do you get the sound as you're changing the pitch while sequence is not playing?
@Pontiki1977

it is a function on arturia machines.the beatstep and the beatstep pro let you hear the corresponding sound each time you turn the knob above a step, even when the sequence is not playing.

@@kidssnyder9680 not the arturia stuff yet. But i did get Model Cycles which is a lofi FM groovebox, and i learned that Elektron's sequencer is extremely fun.
doesnt anyone make a drum machine that has actual real drum sounds & that can actually loop for 3 minutes?
It sequences duhh....
Do I need to see this ugly advert everyday? I don’t need this. I’ve been playing various instruments for 40 years!!! Stop it, you’re wasting your time (I’m referring to simply piano etc. ) the sequencer video is great
I get it its a synth...no keys different buttons.
Clickbait title... change it to « Arturia Ad »
Great video. Helped me a lot!
