Random melody synthesis from outer space
Shooting Stars is a Eurorack CV sequencer unlike any other in modular synthesis. A musical, performance-oriented sequencer built around tactile controls, visual feedback, and generative creativity.
At the center of the interface are four aluminium encoder knobs, each paired with a LED strip that shows the value of the parameters as well as the notes. Together, these four encoders form the entire control surface: designed for expressive live interaction rather than menu diving.
Instead of programming notes step-by-step, Shooting Stars forces you to sculpt melodies organically. Turn the encoders to transform the sequence musically. Transpose melodies, expand or compress intervals, introduce rests, and create variation, all while remaining perfectly quantized and locked to the selected musical scale.
Hold and turn an encoder to access meta-parameters, allowing fast adjustment of advanced sequencing parameters including:
- Transition time (for evolving melodies)
- Sequence length
- Quantization scale
- Slew
- Vibrato
- Gate length
- Accent behaviour
- Variation amount
- Intelligence (This feature will be enabled in firmware 1.1!)
Every note is represented visually as a falling shooting star across the LED sky. Pitch, gate activity, accents, and modulation states are reflected through colour and intensity, turning the sequencer into both a musical and visual instrument.
