Patterns don’t have to march in straight lines—they can ripple, collide, and bloom into melodies you’d never program by hand. Obliquencer is built for that space where rhythm, harmony, and chance intersect, turning rule-based logic into evolving musical structures.
A Magic Pulsewave’s Obliquencer is a standalone, rule-based generative CV/gate sequencer designed as a “primitive algorithmic sequencer” for automatic accompaniment and three-voice interplay. Instead of entering notes step by step, you define how patterns behave and route those behaviors through its pin-matrix interface, generating sequences that can be traditionally melodic or strikingly asynchronous and polyrhythmic. Three tuned CV channels cover more than five octaves at 1V/oct, paired with three dedicated gate outputs, ready to drive up to three synth voices as a tightly related ensemble.
At the core is the Ripple Melody Sequencer, a 3‑bit CV pattern generator clocked and reshaped in real time via a Bit Inversion Matrix, flanked by dual low-frequency clock oscillators, two Decade Rings (2–10 step gate sequencers), and two Ripple Gate Sequencers capable of ultra-fine clock divisions down to 1/4096 for intricate rhythmic textures. Over 150 pin points invite hands-on exploration of routing and logic, while clock in/out and the AMP Link expansion interface keep Obliquencer talking to the rest of your rig. Housed in a 10" x 10" x 2.5" desktop chassis and powered by a 15V DC supply, it’s an experimental sequencing brain that transforms simple pattern rules into rich, evolving compositions.
