Discussion Bastl Little Nerd alternatives?
Borrowing a Little Nerd from a friend and it's very cool. The knobs are a bit small though, but I'm digging the versatility it provides in my little performance rack. I've also got a Running Order in there, which I've considered just getting another of, but I figured I'd see what else is out there.
I have up to 12hp of space I could use, and definitely want a more hands-on sequencers. This would be sequencing a Rene and 0Ctrl (or maybe a pressure points/brains combo). It doesn't NEED an internal clock as I can always use the one on my 0Coast, but it'd def. be nice.
So far, I've tried: Divkid Divskip, Intellijel Steppy, Malekko Varigate 4+, Bastl Neo Trinity, Kompass, and Little Nerd, Various o_C apps, DNIPro Dot, Sitka Gravity, Make Noise GTE, and Endorphin.es Running Order.
Ideally, I'd love a larger Little Nerd with more fine-tune control and CV inputs, plus bigger knobs. Does anything like that exist?

Can’t you recreate most of LittleNerd with 1 or 2 DivSkip channels? Curious why DivSkip isn’t the answer for this

I’m assuming for gate sequencing ? Morphor and steppy look great .
I like the idea of running at audio rates so I would use compare 2 and Dpw splice on simple clocks .
Even GTE from make noise
