The Vermona MeloDicer is a mathematical sequencer that creates note and rhythm patterns based on percentage assignments. The functionality is very simple: with the twelve faders, each of which is assigned to a fixed note, the probability is determined whether it is played in the pattern The note range is set with the two range faders, which easily cover five octaves. If rests and different note lengths are desired, these can also be determined as percentages with Rest and Variation. Thanks to quantized notes, the results always have a musical reference and can be easily integrated synchronously and above all rhythmically. Need a new sequence? Just press one or both DICE keys! Pause and note length are re-rolled with Rhythm according to the controller position; Melody puts the notes in a new sequence. So that not everything is a one-off, 16 memory locations are available in which even the sequence length of 1-16 steps can be defined. Specials like an extended quantizer for external control voltages, a clocked random mode and two CV/Gate inputs each for controlling the internal functions effectively round off the functional range of the Vermona MeloDicer.
For one who is addicted to sequencers, this module has it’s own unique take on how to put things together and take them apart and put them back together. It produces very melodic (hence the name I guess) lines that suit anyone looking for that stochastic edge but not so much chaos that you want to rip it out of the rack and stick it in the bin. It doesn’t take an age to program; you just need to know the difference between a gate and CV and the rest is just oysters all the way to the fish market - or something like that. It’s a nice module. Buy it.
