New one from Sugar Bytes!
What is Nest
Nest is a modular sequencer. It offers all kinds of modules to generate and process triggers and numbers. You can build highly complex sequencing environments with the aim to produce music with a life of its own.

Nest is equipped with resemblings of classical, transistor based integrated circuits like Shift Registers or Multiplexers, plus programming tools like the if/else and math modules. Also a writable Sequencer and flexible Arpeggiator are onboard, to make life easy when needed.

A clever voice assignment distributes the 8 possible MIDI voices to up to 4 different sound generators like VSTs, internal Synths and Drums or MIDI channels. This can make Nest not only fun when hosting your favorite plugins, you can also use it to drive your hardware park.

I've just spent about an hour with the demo of this and found it utterly bewildering and concluded that it is definitely not for me.
However, I'm 100% sure it will appeal to some of the regulars on here. It's powerful but complicated.

I saw this a few days ago and thought: "Man, i like weird and complicated stuff, but wth shall i do with that and where should i start?" This UI has nothing, that sucks me in and makes me want to play with it.

I watched a few videos and it really showed how good this actually is, but yeah, gui is pretty simple but it makes sense.
When it comes to sequencers, I just saw a polymath seq video, but it's for ableton and if you ask me it has everything I wanted in a seq. Too bad I'm not really usimg ableton, but I would start just because of this sweet little seq.

I am waiting for this one to come out on iPAD, it seems ideal as an app.

I dig SugarBytes devices, especially getting to know their clever UI's. I own Factory, Aparillo and Obscurium. But Nest seems to have too few visual cues. Maybe some day when I'm bored with VCV and VM.
