Description
Now with MIDI step input and more!
*** Note ***
Although mKer can run as a stand-alone app, the recommended way to use it is as an AUv3 plugin from inside a suitable AU Host app that supports MIDI Processors such as AUM, Audiobus, Cubasis etc. Please also note that mKer is a MIDI app/plugin. That means that it does not produce sound itself - it needs to be connected to an audio source that can receive MIDI.
mKer is a versatile, multi-output MIDI step sequencer with an extensive range of features. These include:
- 8 MIDI outputs
- 64 Patterns
- 16 Lanes (aka tracks) per Pattern
- Independent number of Steps (1-32) and Step Size (1/64-256 beats) per Lane per Pattern
- Every step can play either a single note, an interval (2 notes) or a chord (3 or 4 notes)
- Lane Step parameters: Play Cycles, Skip Cycles, Play Offset Cycles, Pitch, Velocity, Probability, Offset (can be used for ‘swing’ like effects) and Gate
- A flexible Editor that includes a step entry keyboard, parameter sliders and a variety of options and utilities designed for to make the workflow intuitive and fast
- 32 Clips with 1-8 Steps per Clip, 1-128 repeats per step (every clip step has one pattern)
- 3 Play Modes: Pattern, Clip, Sequence (all Clips)
- A Performance tab with 10 fully assignable MIDI sliders, a 12-snapshot bank and morphing function between the snapshots...
- MIDI step input
... and more!

Ratings and Reviews
Very nice tool
I have enjoyed working with it very much so far. I appreciate that it works in stand alone mode as well as a plug-in. I’ve been using it as a sequencer for my hardware modular setup via a midi to CV interface. The one function I would really like to see added is the ability to tie steps together (i.e. to create an 8th note in a 16 step pattern). Edit: Thank You for adding the ability to tie notes! Love the fact that the app is being updated with new features. I’ve worked with a couple of iOS step sequencers but this is my favorite.

Quirky but actually fun
Once you put up with some UI oddities, the interface is surprisingly good helping to find and work out ideas. Editing the lanes for example is easy using an assortment of buttons in the lower half. You don’t have to reach across the screen all the time. One bigger caveat is that the apps parameters don’t seem to be exposed. So you cannot use MIDI controllers and effects to control mKer itself.
