Welcome to Pico Sequence! It's a tiny 4-step sequencer with 4 sounds.
Each row represents a different sound.

1- kick drum
2- snare/hi-hat
3- synth 1
4- synth 2

To play/pause the sequence press play button on the sequencer using mouse or just press space.
You may also switch steps using left and right arrow keys while the sequence is not playing.
Use up and down arrow keys to change the speed of the sequence.

The mixer is on the upped part of the sequencer. You may change the volume of each sound by dragging the faders up and down.

You may also change the decay of the kick and the snare/hi-hats by hovering you mouse over the speaker(kick) or the noise screen(snare/hi-hats) and pressing left and right arrow keys.

Sound 3 is represented with the green head. If you press the head, an eye icon appears and the random melody mode turns on. It plays notes from the sequence randomly in minor scale.

Sound 4 is a head with the yellow orb. If you press the orb and drag it up and down, the note changes in 1 octave range. The note of sound 4 determines the root note of sound 3 minor scale.

Four buttons on the side of the sequencer switches the amount of steps for each sound between 3 and 4.

To record your sequence press the tape icon on the top right corner of the screen. Press it again to finish the recording.

UPDATE #1

• Now the BPM are real beats per minute, so you can actually sync Pico Sequence with some other sequencers or DAW. It will still be a bit wobbly, but I added a speed adjustment feature. Pressing right or left arrow while playing a sequence will speed it up or down.
• The fourth instruments note can now be written to the sequencer steps. To do that, change the orb position and if the step is on, the position will be recorded to the step. You may do it both while sequence is playing or paused.

this is so cool :D (and slightly usefull xd)

love this!

Solid. Weird. Fun. Useful. What more could we ask for? I recently purchased an RGB30 handheld for playing pico8 games. It had a dead battery and was DOA, so I they sent another RGB30! Now I have 2... jam session? Oh yes. And now I can your theremin cart on one and sequencer of the other! Anyone with 2 phones could also rock out in this way. Thank u

Sounds way funkier than it should!?! Is there some secret shuffle sauce happening?

Nice idea @Huwans!)
Was actually doing the same with computer and a phone))
