r/seqtrak

Hello - I have been doing a lot of tutorials and walk-throughs on the Yamaha SeqTRAK, and when I do these tutorials - I use my Akai MPK Mini Plus as a controller. I built a template to allow me to more easily access many of the features on the SeqTRAK - the knobs are mapped to be useful and the pads are mapped to the 7 buttons that play the sampler sounds, or the 7 drums in one of the new drum kit tracks. You still need to manually change the channel of the Keys, and will also need to change the channel of the pads if you choose to use them as drums (the template has them mapped to the sampler). But here is the template if you want it - https://www.cap10nrg.com/downloads/MPC/MPKMiniPlus%20SeqTrakCfg.zip

To use this template - unzip and send it to the MPK Mini Plus with the MPK Mini Plus Program Editor (available from https://www.akaipro.com in the inMusic app)

I hope this helps a lot of folks out. If you guys want me to go over it in a video, or to show how I put it together let me know. I have lots of other SeqTRAK videos on my YouTube as well so... Hit me up here or there...

After Duck Tales, here comes a theme song from a Hanna-Barbera cartoon series, "Tom and Jerry kids". Took me a while to make it as close to the original as possible.

If you like it, please leave a thumbs-up on YouTube :)

When I enter a note using the synth step sequencer, then later hold down said note and turn the all button, I'm only able to increase the note length from a 16th note to an 8th note, but I'd like to make the note longer. The only way I've been able to input longer notes is to use the record function. Does anyone know how I can do this from the step sequencer itself?

Also on that note, does anyone know how to change the note length of a note if it extends beyond the bar that it's currently in? I can't even decrease the note length at that point, it seems like it's locked in place.

I may be completely wrong, but I swore that while the seqtrak was playing patterns, it would automatically change pages, but I think I did something and now I have to press the page button even during playback in order to change pages. Is this something that you can toggle, or am I crazy in thinking that it can do this?

This was a much requested walk-through of how I recreated classical music on a modern groovebox.

I have been trying to get a replacement seqtrak MIDI cable (the 3.5mm to 3 x 5 pin MIDI one) from my local Yamaha service centre for several months now.

Does anyone have a better way to find one? I live in Singapore, but could also have it delivered to the UK.

Hallo, ich hab seit einiger Zeit denn Seqtrak finde ihn super kann man echt viel mit machen und macht Spaß nur mein größtes Problem ist einen Song fertigstellen zwar kann man denn Visualizer dafür benutzen aber nicht einfach denn fertigen Track und ihn in eine DAW zu bringen ist für nicht erfahrene Benutzer wie mich eine Katastrophe! Wie macht ihr das? Bin etwas genervt so langsam obwohl das Gerät eigentlich wirklich Bock macht! Danke
