The NDLR doesn’t work like any other sequencer on this list. This makes the Octatrack MkII incredibly versatile for live performance.Ĭonsidering the amount of functionality and creative flexibility you get out of the Octatrack, it’s worth its higher price tag. One of the most dynamic parts of the Octatrack is its scene crossfader that allows you to seamlessly blend between track sequences. When it comes to sequencing you get eight audio tracks and eight midi tracks, with each having their own 64 step pattern.Įach track can play for its own length, in its own time signature, and you can set up dedicated trigger conditions and parameter locks.
