BACKGROUND

Social Entropy started business developing the Quicksilver upgrades for the TR-606

and TB-303. This was specifically a challenge because we were adding new

features and capabilities to a machine that already had a defined interface, buttons

and labelling. There were many places where adding extra capability just didn’t

make sense in the context of the interface.

As part of our creative process, we always enjoy a dedicated hardware device that

had a particular workflow, whether it was for drums or synthesizer. This is where

the old machines really shine. But we also wanted even greater control over

multiple machines and the ability to control any device with the same type of

dedicated interface, whether it was a VST, a sound module or even a modular

synthesizer.

At this point we decided it was time to design and build a sequencer of our own. A

machine that had the best parts of a dedicated hardware sequencer, streamlined

workflow and connectivity to multiple devices.

Four years later, we are finally ready to release Engine. We hope you enjoy it as

much as we do!
