CHAOS
"Chaos is the hidden force that moves everything around us. It’s a random stream of events, whose correlation is impossible to understand.
Despite it all, we are used to influence chaos in a very deterministic way by setting the limits of its dynamic behavior: in this way we can predict events and make them possible. That’s exactly what our Chaos does. A continuous stream of gates and voltages is produced by a sophisticated random engine controlled by a series of parameters that can be set to define its acting behavior." SIX CHANNEL ALEATORIC BRAIN

Chaos is a six-channel aleatoric brain where a random generator helps you quickly finalize your idea.
With its function, gates, and CV outputs, Chaos can be used as a very effective time and modulation manager, but it can also be considered a complex sequencer with a very new type of workflow.
In Chaos, indeed, you have three working layers:
everything starts with a tunable random generator that can quickly create random patterns of gates and CVs.
Once the channel output reaches your need, you can lock it in a loop and globally modify it with the same parameters you’ve used to tame the random generator.
Finally, as a last layer, you can modify each step of the loop in every aspect, resulting in the perfect sequence you had in mind.
Usually, a sequencer starts with a blank page; Chaos starts from an extremely random and uncontrolled stream of events and easily shifts towards a more deterministic and manageable sequence.
It’s like shaping a block of stone.
