Description

Edit description

The Detachment3 Archangel stands as a beacon for musicians and producers seeking a MIDI controller that marries cutting-edge functionality with an intuitive design. At its heart is a 4-row, 16-step analog sequencer, enhanced by a 16-pad touchplate controller, presenting a tactile interface that sparks creativity and performance. This versatile tool can serve as your timing master or seamlessly integrate into existing setups via MIDI, DIN sync, or external clock pulse connections. Its integrated multi-scale quantizer and flexible sequence lengths—ranging from 1/32nd note to two bars—offer unmatched precision for your compositions.

The Archangel is not just a sequencer; it's a performance powerhouse. The touchplate keyboard is both pressure and position-sensitive, providing a 2D control interface that lets you shape sound with precision. The sequencer's five direction modes and three integrated sequential switches open up a world of creative possibilities. With options like free-run and one-shot modes, the Archangel adapts to your workflow, whether you're experimenting in a studio session or performing live.

Perfect for those who push the boundaries of sound, this controller’s extensive I/O options ensure it fits snugly into any rig, controlling everything from pitch and gate to pressure and position parameters.

Key Features:

4-row, 16-step analog sequencer with integrated 16-pad touchplate controller
Timing master capabilities with MIDI, DIN sync, and external clock pulse
Integrated multi-scale quantizer with sequence lengths from 1/32nd note to two bars
Five direction modes and three sequential switches for creative sequencing
16-pad touchplate keyboard with pressure and position sensitivity for 2D control
Extensive I/O options, including pitch CV, pressure CV, and position CV outputs
16 selectable keyboard scales, including musical modes and harmonic scales
