Tenderfoot Electronics – Chronicle

8-Channel CV & Gate Sequencer

Chronicle is a powerful 8-channel grid-based sequencer that puts deep control and fast, intuitive programming at your fingertips. Its illuminated 8×8 button grid gives you instant access to every step, whether you’re working on a single track or sculpting all eight channels at once. With microSD storage for up to 512 patterns and the ability to chain them into complete songs, Chronicle is ready for everything from quick sketches to full live sets.

Designed for both precision programming and performance, Chronicle offers real-time features like keyboard mode, microtonal root shifting, probability, ratcheting, and multi-page pattern editing. Sync multiple units via a standard patch cable and custom UART protocol to expand up to 32 channels without missing a beat. Front-loading microSD access makes backing up patterns, loading custom quantizer scales, and updating firmware quick and painless — so you can focus on the music, not the menus.
