Homegrown Sounds has updated Kontakt Sequencer Collection to v1.1.
This update sees Chord Stepper Advanced added to the collection. The Advanced version adds a few more chord shapes as well as a series of 2 note chords made up of the root note plus a selectable semitones, these are also available as single notes without the root note. Additionally it has a selection of play patterns which can be used with step repeats which decide the sequence of notes which will play. This gives the ability to add a new level of complexity to patterns and along with the ability to play single and dual notes per step it takes Chord Stepper to a new level.
Both Procession and Chordian Advanced have also been updated to include the ability to load a single pattern from an advanced preset into the currently selected pattern.
The Advanced Versions of the 3 main sequencers build on the functionality of the single pattern versions developed for the Augment Group Buy adding multi-pattern switching as well as other features.
The Sequencer Collection costs $14.99 and additionally all purchases will also boost the Augment Group Buy number.

Augment Group Buy Update
This week saw the final level reached in the Augment Group Buy unlocking both the ReaniTar and Chord Stepper Instruments. As a result two new levels have now been added and an extra week to achieve them. Level 20 will unlock another Reanimator based instrument which uses radio based loops adapted from Airwaves adding a unique loop creator to join the other 3 Reanimator based instruments. This is the most experimental in the collection, probably most useful in generating a character loop for a track.
The Group Buy costs $14.99 with just over a week to go which will work out at $1.49 per Kontakt Instrument (not including the loops) if the final level is achieved.
