    yep its expensive. i bought it. fully robust hardware is not so cheap. as demonstrated by the build quality of the bcr-2000, an inexpensive piece of hardware. looks like building a better solution will either be full of hurdles and challenges with not so much difference to the end product or buying one will be expensive.

    so seq-12 has 12 tracks with controller lanes and similar features. 3 zaquencers using new bcr-2000s (assuming they were still for sale new for around $250 each) plus 3 zaquencer licences totals $1050, so very similar price. only seq-12 is much more robust build with 3 midi outputs as well. also polyend seq is around that price with less over all features. but your point is taken.

    so get yours going and charge what you want. right now its jsut a concept… have you found a platform or a coder? youve got a layout, graphics, functions, the whole bit! its almost finished! impressive. good luck with that. i hope someone gets in touch and is willing to do the work for you. will you be paying? glad i bought 2 new bcr-2000 when they were still available. itll be a sad day when mine breaks down.

    say… if anyone is looking for a current replacement for zaquencer with a better build, check out mode machines seq12… like a cross between zaquencer and nanoloop, produced by a german guy. not cheap tho. maybe not as cool in some ways.

    well, i think thats what the warning was for. cloning happens all the time in the modular world. of course cloned stuff is open source which the bcr2000 is not. thats pretty much the end of that.

    its a nice idea but christian is a coder who seized upon an sdk, and never intended to make a hardware box. hey maybe one of you guys can take on that challenge and then im sure christian would take notice and support you! (dont quote me please)

    custom hardware has always been an option and a few have done it like the retrokits guys

    “The RK-2000 is not really in production but we’d like to show it off anyway (and who knows right…). It is an Aluminium anodized frontplate plus wooden cheeks for the Behringer BCR-2000.

    The faceplate is tailored for the Zaquencer software. On our own BCR2000 we’ve replaced all rotary encoders with more solid detent-type-encoders (A job which is not advisable to do by the way) so now we have a pretty reliable and versatile 4 track sequencer.”

    christian told me theres no plans for another update for the moment.

    “Unfortunately there is not much going on at ZAQ Audio at the moment.
    I´m still here for support, but haven´t been active in development since some time.
    I´m grateful for how the Zaquencer developed, but it´s still far away from making a living, and I recently took an offer to work for a big company again.

    This is not to say that ZAQ Audio is dead. As I said, I´m here for support, and who knows, maybe in the future I´ll have time again to implement some more ideas.”

    each track is set up for 1 chanel and is a monophonic sequence for all intents and purposes
