Its feature set is extensive as you would expect – eight oscillator modules, various transformation parameters, eight ARP modules(!), eight step SQ modules, eight mod envelopes, eight pitch envelopes, four AMP modules, four filters, four SHAPERs, four LFOs, drum sequencer, six routable FX busses, wavetable envelope / editor, and a great deal more. Vengeance Sound’s VPS Avenger is yet another one of those hyper-powered synths with endless features, and we’ve featured it in past guides too. So, in addition to VST plugins that identify as sequencers or arpeggiators, we will be looking at several synths with powerful arpeggiators in this guide. After all, many synths come with arpeggiators built in. Some of the most capable arpeggiators, not surprisingly, are synths. But we must admit that there are a lot of other cool VSTs on this list, in case this one doesn’t ring a bell for you.Ĭonsequence is compatible with Windows and Mac. So, while it is a bit of a tossup, we’ve chosen Consequence as our best overall option. But it isn’t so hard that you can’t familiarize yourself with it in a short amount of time.Īnd as the video below demonstrates, you can do a lot of cool things with Consequence.
And to be fair, it may not be the easiest of arpeggiators / sequencers to get used to. The user interface, while nicely designed, is quite intricate and complex. A trigger mode can be selected for each instrument.Ĭonsequence includes 237 sounds from organic instruments and synthesizers, three oscillators with 32-step sequencer, multi-effect section, envelope per instrument, onboard 4/4 kickdrum, polyphonic triggers per step, MIDI out, and more.Ĭonsequence does look a little intimidating upon first brush. The sample-based library comes with many instruments, from violins to synths, with controls for Octave, Pan, Level, and Crush. There are even deep modulation options along with filters and effects. There are five sequencers that control different aspects of your creation. Three instruments can be loaded up and manipulated with a variety of sequencing options.Ī said they knew of “no comparable tool,” Waveformless said it helped them create new ideas, and Computer Music thought it was another solid, forward-thinking creation via Sugar Bytes (who seems quite prolific in this domain of VSTs).Īt the heart of the Consequence workflow is the chord sequencer, which lets you choose from 16-chord “snapshots,” which can be defined in the Chord Memory section.
Sugar Bytes’ Consequence arpeggiator creates sequences based on the chords you give it to work with.
