IMPORTANT: Oxo Steps is a MIDI AUv3 plugin and does not generate audio by itself. To use the plugin, load it in an AUv3 host such as AUM.
Oxo Steps combines a step sequencer and an arpeggiator in one MIDI performance tool.
Enter one chord and drive up to 6 independent tracks on 6 MIDI channels. For example:
- Track 1 (Channel 1): bass line from the chord's lowest note
- Track 2 (Channel 2): chord stabs from selected chord notes, or fixed notes if preferred
- Track 3 (Channel 3): full-note arpeggio motion using all notes
- Track 4 (Channel 2): random notes every now and then (Channel 2 = the same instrument playing the chord)
Change the chord, everything follows.
Build up to 8 scenes (each scene stores a chord plus pattern changes per track).
Record your performance as a MIDI file and continue the idea in your DAW.
Features include:
- Monophonic or polyphonic tracks
- Polymetric lanes (e.g. notes over 12 steps, octave over 6, gate over 16)
- Pattern direction: forward, backward, ping-pong, random
- Predictable probability lane controls (e.g. last bar of 4)
- Two CC lanes for sequencing MIDI CC modulation
- Chord memory
- Chord progression presets
- Track offset in milliseconds for tighter external hardware sync
- Cross-pattern hold/legato
- Performance window for live control (scene switching + CC knobs)
The free version includes 2 fully functional tracks. Unlock the full version to get all 6 tracks and MIDI file recording.
