Continuing in the tradition of building quality products, price vs. features, and our collective journey through the universe of music, we introduce the Mobius. The Mobius is a one track sequencer designed to control virtually every type of synthesizer or sound module ever created.

The step sequencer is one of the easiest to use you will ever find, yet still packed with unique features. There are 256 recordable patterns available. Each recording note duration, pitch, accent , glide, loop point, and time signature. Pattern editing features include copy/paste, pattern shifting, pattern transposing, multiple pattern cueing, and LED chase. Pattern editing and recording can be done while the sequencer is running, and it will automatically save all your edits so you don't have to stop creating!

There are 16 songs to arrange the patterns in, each recording it's tempo, the bank/pattern for each step, the transposition of each step, and the song's loop point. Each of the 16 songs contains up to 3580 measures. Multiple songs may be chained together so they play sequentially.

The Mobius is the best stand alone sequencing solution for playing any of the many 303 clone sound modules accurately to that of the original TB-303 whether they operate via Midi or CV/Gate. Of course you can sequence any other type of Midi or CV/Gate synthesizer in the same easy way, for new interesting results.

Extended information

The unit can also perform as a MIDI to CV converter, MIDI to DIN Sync converter, and MIDI to Analog Clock converter with Reset. You can synchronize the Mobius via MIDI to an external clock or have it act as a master device sending MIDI Clock, DIN Sync, and Analog Clock signals to external sequencers, plus send and receive MIDI note data, and velocity. The Mobius also supports SysEx dumping of patterns and songs, and uses the same pattern format as in the FR-777, allowing patterns created in one device to be transferred and played in the other.

Just to get an idea of everything you could do with the Mobius at one time, imagine the following setup:


Mobius sequencing a Midi or analog synthesizer with it's internal patterns.
Mobius stepping an analog sequencer or an arpeggiator in a synthesizer.
Mobius syncing your Din Sync devices.
Any other Midi devices syncing to the Mobius.

There is a Glide Time control knob on the front panel to adjust the portamento effect of gliding notes when using the control voltage outputs. This knob is accompanied by an ON/OFF switch that can be used to disable all programmed notes from gliding.
