Pattern Chainer for Roland SH-4d

This is a simple sequencer to chain play patterns on the Roland SH-4d. Connect the pattern and treat it as a song mode.

It works based on the MIDI clock of SH-4d on a web browser, and It can work with other rhythm boxes by setting Program Change MSB/LSB.

Usage

Web Browser

• Chromium-based browser such as Microsoft Edge.
