The Analogue Solutions AS-500 is a meticulously hand-built, standalone 64-step analogue sequencer featuring true analogue CV circuitry, innovative vertical column sequencing, dual CV outputs with glide, fill-in modes for variation, robust construction, and compatibility with Eurorack and other analogue systems, making it a comprehensive tool for professional musicians and producers.

A Compact and Enhanced Reboot of a Classic

The AS-500 represents a modernised reboot of the iconic Megacity sequencer, delivering the same legendary functionality in a smaller desktop form factor. It includes several enhancements and internal improvements, all while maintaining its pure analogue design without MIDI or quantiser features, catering to purists seeking authentic analogue control.

Unique Vertical Sequencing Format

Unlike traditional step sequencers that operate horizontally, the AS-500 introduces a distinctive vertical sequencing layout. The patterns run top-to-bottom within each column and progress from one column to the next horizontally. This format offers a fresh, intuitive way of working while encouraging unique creative workflows. Additionally, the AS-500 features a Jump function, allowing users to bypass the remaining steps of a column and immediately transition to the next, fostering dynamic and unpredictable sequences.

Exceptional Versatility and Variation

The AS-500 avoids the repetitiveness typical of traditional sequencers by incorporating split sequencing and fill-in functionality. Users can divide the sequencer into two sections, using one as a fill-in pattern to inject variation, much like vintage drum machines. These fill-ins can be triggered manually via a push button or externally through modular systems, ensuring seamless integration into diverse setups.

Comprehensive Features for Professional Use

The AS-500 includes a range of features tailored for professionals. It offers two CV outputs per channel with adjustable range and glide (portamento), along with four gate outputs for precise triggering. The voltage-controlled clock ensures precise timing, while the Jump and Reset functions allow immediate manipulation of sequences. Reset returns the sequencer to the first step, ideal for shortening patterns, while Jump advances the sequence to the next column, enabling intricate arrangements.

Built to Last with Premium Components

The Analogue Solutions AS-500 is constructed from durable steel and aluminium, ensuring reliability in demanding environments. It features high-quality sealed potentiometers and sturdy switches, reflecting its professional-grade design. The visually striking LED matrix, with its cascading "teardrop" lights, not only enhances usability but adds an engaging aesthetic to the workflow.

The AS-500 stands out with its unique sequencing format, dynamic features like Jump and Fill-In, and robust analogue design. These elements make it a versatile and inspiring tool for professionals seeking fresh creative possibilities. Its innovative approach to sequencing ensures users achieve patterns and musical ideas that may not emerge using conventional methods, making it a standout addition to any studio or live performance setup.

  • True Analogue Control: Utilises CV pots instead of digital encoders for precise, hands-on sequencing.
  • Standalone Functionality: Operates independently without the need for MIDI or quantisers.
  • Multiple Sequencing Modes: 64 steps in series mode or two 32-step sequences in parallel mode (two channels).
  • Dual CV Outputs: Each channel includes adjustable range and glide (portamento).
  • Four Gate Outputs: Two gate outputs per channel for versatile triggering options.
  • Dynamic Jump and Reset Functions: Trigger via MIDI note, push button, or external gate for real-time sequence manipulation.
  • Fill-In and Clock Divide Modes: Adds variation and rhythm flexibility to sequences.
  • Voltage-Controlled Clock: Ensures precise timing and synchronisation with other devices.
  • Broad Compatibility: Works seamlessly with Eurorack systems and most analogue synths with CV/Gate inputs.
  • Robust Build Quality: Solid steel and aluminium construction for durability and longevity.
  • High-Quality Components: Features sealed potentiometers and sturdy switches designed for professional use.
  • Unique LED Matrix Display: Eye-catching teardrop LED effects provide clear visual feedback.
