MFB Urzwerg Pro  

 
MFB´s step-sequencer URZWERG PRO is the extended version of our URZWERG. This advanced version has  been inspired by feature requests and suggestions of many users to ensure better flexibility than  ever. Most prominently, URZWERG PRO now offers output of MIDI-notes and -controllers as well as 32  individual step LEDs to keep track of the sequences´ status.  
 
URZWERG PRO offers 32 steps that can either be used for two sequences with up to 16 steps each or  with four sequences with up to 8 steps each. You may control up to four synthesizers or  CV-controllable parameters in an analogue modular system simultaneously. Using the MIDI-output  allows to address four separate synthesizers or multitimbral parts in a single synthesizer. In  addition, you may play your MIDI-synth with two, three or voices polyphony. When playing it  duo-phonically, the two remaining tracks can be used to control velocity and mod-wheel-data (MIDI-CC  01). Using it with three polyphonic voices, still allows for velocity control.  
 
In 4 x 8 mode, URZWERG PRO can control up to four individual NANOZWERG synths using CV/Gate. As  another example, you can also control and individually modulate pitch, pulse width, filter-cutoff  and LFO-speed in MFB´s KRAFTZWERG. Finally, using URZWERG PRO in combination with a modular  synthesizer-system will allow for even more versatile options. URZWERG PRO´s Gate- and CV-inputs are  fully compatible to all common eurorack-format modular systems.  
 
The use of MIDI allows similar applications as using CV/Gate connections but will add further  functionality.Sounds can be played polyphonically with up to four voices. Using URZWERG PRO  duo-phonically or as dual-monophonic, you can use the remaining two MIDI-controllers to output  velocity and mod-wheel-data in parallel with the first two tracks. In a CV/Gate-based synthesizer,  all parameters with CV-input can be addressed directly. On the contrary, MIDI-control through  URZWERG PRO always also depends on the routing-options of the connected instrument.  
 
URZWERG PRO was designed for intuitive operation. All functions feature designated controls for  editing while the sequencer is running. For best overview, URZWERG PRO now features LEDs per step.  These LEDs do not only visualize the sequence current position but also the skip-buttons´ status.  While setting the MIDI-channel and the operating modes, these LEDs also function as a display.  
 
When using URZWERG PRO on stage, you can set, edit and remove steps live. In addition, you can also  modify the sequences´ directions and their individual lengths. As a new feature, URZWERG PRO  features a random-function to playback a row´s steps at random. Another novelty is the  auto-glide-function. Here, as in the TB-303, glide will only become active with tied notes.  
 
URZWERG PRO provides four Gate- and CV-outputs to control compatible analogue synthesizers and  modular systems. Start-I/O and Clock-I/O allow URZWERG PRO to be synchronized to and sync other  analogue sequencers. The additional CV-Clock-input allows for dynamic tempo-control, e.g. using an  external LFO or a CV-controller. To sync URZWERG PRO via MIDI, the unit can send...
