Hi all. I somehow lost the knob for the "pan" encoder. I THINK it's a regular 6mm D-shaped encoder fitting, but I'm not sure. I was wondering if anyone knows for certain? If so, I can order a bunch of pretty colored ones and have fun.
Dear fans of the cute groovebox,
I’d like to build a custom MIDI cable for the Seqtrak that combines two TRS cables (TRS -> MIDI In & Out) into the device's TRRRS jack (5-pin -> MIDI In & Out) to connect other synths and keyboard.
I want to avoid using adapters from the included cable whip (which splits into two DIN connectors) and - ideally - not have to cannibalize for DIY approach either.
It seems the specific TRRRS connector required is proprietary?
Does anyone know where to source one (and, ideally, have a wiring diagram)?
Many thanks for the help!

I have been falling prey to gas to try to find the one thing that get me out of my rut, I keep buying and selling stuff because it’s easier than getting good. I’m overwhelmed and the gear owns me.
So I got one of these. Honestly I have spent the last 48 hours completely inspired, it’s amazing. I’m using it as it was intended, an idea pad and it’s super easy to get into and way more intuitive than I would have ever thought.
This is lifting my writers block and I’m so happy that I got gas and bought this. It’s unlocking my flow, and I’m excited.
Please be kind it's my first time using this device here's the drum pattern to new orders blue Monday!
I was showing a friend my Seqtrak and App last night and it only then occurred to me that we both had full control of all aspects of the device simultaneously. Them using the app, me on the device itself. I could change and tweak drum sounds while they explored synth or samplers.
It felt very collaborative and I would love to see that aspect of the device leaned into.
One way I thought to do this would be to allow multiple instances of the app to connect to a single Seqtrak. Besides the ability for multiple people to control the seqtrak at the same time, This could also allow the ability to have full visual control of multiple aspects of the device at one time on different screens (think one screen locked to the mixing screen, one on DX sound design, etc).
I posted this idea to the Yamaha synth forum
I just got it charged it up and connected it to the app via USB it said to update so I did but the USB came out before it was done the system went off and won't turn on please help
I'm curious about using a seqtrak as an occasional replacement for some old Yamaha effects racks. Id also use it as a groovebox, the effects would just be the icing on the cake for me.
I saw in the effects list it has spx90 reverbs, chorus and detune. Being able to route another sampler or guitar audio through that and apply them as effects would be useful for me.
How do people rate the effects? If it had the old symphonic algo I'd buy it straight away but as far as I can tell they haven't added that.
I have a bad habit of not always being consistent on where elements of my compositions land in terms of the tracks on this device. So, I made myself this little reference guide in case I forget how to mute by pads or leads (for instance) while I'm playing live.
Does anyone know if there's a way to swap parts from one track to another? Like, can I transpose my kick and snare or my bass and lead instrument?
This is my very first techno track made on the Seqtrak. Bought the device around a month ago and I have been using it ever since. I love it.
My midi controller has only one USB A and no midi outputs. Is there a workaround because as for now I’m stuck on channel 1 which is drums??! If not, is there like a midi hub I could get to change the midi channel through the controller’s software on my computer but still output it to seqtrak? I was wondering what you guys’s setups looked like. Sorry kind of a noob with hardware this is my first groove box
