  1. My only feature request, make the retrigger able to be quantized to the sequencer! I really love the model cycles and I really want to make ... I love language quiz needed to add quite a few keyboard shortcuts to a side project I'm working on, so I implemented my own little keyboard shortcut library ...Discover interesting projects on GitHub Enterprise Server and contribute to open source by collaborating with other people.
