REQ: Reason RE zvork ST100 Strumming Machine

Strum Pattern Player
The ST100 Strumming Machine is a Player device that lets you play guitar strum-like note patterns on any Reason compatible instrument. As a full-class citizen Player device it can be chained with “Scales & Chords” or “Note Echo” native players for crazy note generation experiments.

• Guitar-like strums on any instrument
• Strum stroke patterns with up, down and mute
• Pattern automation

At the heart of the ST100 is a pattern sequencer that lets you define the rhythm of your strums. Add an upward or downwards stroke, modulate the velocity and speed, with it you can create arpegio-like sequences or chord-like stabs. With 4 patterns to switch from and up to 64 steps per pattern, you can create detailed phrases and break monotony. The pattern selection is even automatable using a familiar pattern lane.

The ST100 lets you define accents at precise timings and modulate in real time the dynamic of these accents. The velocity of each note strum can also be adjusted with global random and time based controls giving you the ability to have strums with increasing or decreasing note velocity, or strums with completely random note velocities for an even more organic feeling.

Speed lets you control if you would rather have clearly detached notes or a more compact stab and this can be adjusted for each pattern step in your sequences.
Patches

The ST100 comes with a number of pattern patches of differents styles as well as a handfull of “single key strummed chord” instruments in any major or minor chord that can be used as a starting point for your own patches.
