Genoqs Octopus review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

The Genoqs Octopus is a beautifully crafted sequencer that stands out with its unique design and ease of use, allowing musicians to create intricate MIDI patterns with a simple button interface. Its LED displays and editing functions are intuitive, making sound manipulation engaging. However, its high price may deter some buyers, and the initial software version feels somewhat unfinished, suggesting that updates are necessary for full functionality. Still, for those seeking a creative and visually striking addition to their studio, the Octopus shines as a luxury tool worth considering.

In an undated interview with Steelberry Clones, Daniel B. of Front 242 states:

On the Nothing But Noise album we have a very standard set up and in the center sits a Octopus sequencer, which from my perspective is more of an instrument then a controller. It has its roots in the analog world.
