littleBits Micro Sequencer

The micro sequencer allows you to store notes and play them back in a repeating order. With the Bits, you can create short melodies controlled by the pitch knobs. Connect it to an oscillator and it will step through the “sequence” consecutively to make a melody (the LEDs tell you which step is active). The clock mode ensures that multiple sequencers can be synchronized and the trigger output provides a clock pulse to send to additional Bits.


The micro sequencer sends out voltages based on the position of each of the four "step" knobs. Turn a knob fully counterclockwise to make the "step" silent.

Use the Bit in "speed" mode to set the speed using the dial, or flip the switch to "step" mode to use an input Bit like a pulse or button for control.

It also has a"trigger out", which you can send to any of your other Bits. This can be used to trigger other Bits like the envelope.
