The Essentials to Know About Thesys Software
- 32-step step-sequencer MIDI with 18 dedicated lanes for pitch, velocity, gate, performance, and CC modulation.
- Creative workflow "draw, record, mutate": paint your patterns, record via keyboard, then generate musical variations using the Randomizer/Mutate.
- Real-time performance: 16 patterns, keyboard triggering and transposition, "Action" section (Loop, Half-Time, Re-Trigger, Tempo Break) for on-the-fly remixing.
- Flexible routing and export: MIDI Out, drag-and-drop MIDI file export to your DAW, AU as MIDI FX, internal synth for instant prototyping.

What Thesys Is For
Thesys is a creative MIDI sequencer designed to sculpt riffs, arpeggios, basslines, and evolving patterns while controlling your virtual instruments, hardware synths, and effects. It excels in electronic, hip-hop, modern pop styles as well as experimental or film music, thanks to its CC modulation lanes to animate filters, macros, and plug-in parameters.
Main Features
Precise Melodic Sequencing
Draw notes, record them via keyboard, or generate them on the fly. Set the root note and quantize to scales to avoid wrong notes. The Pitch, Velocity, and Gate lanes form the core of your phrase programming.
5-in-1 Performance Sequencer
Add step-by-step octave changes, Pitch Bend curves (20 shapes), polyphonic chords, rolls, and musical randomness for natural "humanization" of your patterns.
Advanced Modulation and Automation
The CC lane sends 0-127 values per step to the MIDI controller of your choice. Launch up to eight modulation sequences in parallel to simultaneously control multiple parameters.
Polymeter and Evolution
Assign different lengths to each lane (e.g., 16/15/29 steps) to generate shifting cycles and perpetually evolving patterns. Chain up to 16 patterns, trigger them via keyboard, and transpose live.
Seamless Creation and Capture
The Randomizer/Mutate offers instant variations. Export your ideas via MIDI drag-and-drop, enjoy MIDI Out (VST-2/AAX), and Audio Unit in MIDI FX mode to control other AUs. The internal synth allows sketching without patching.

Questions frequently asked
Is Thesys compatible with Mac and Windows?
On macOS, the VST-2, VST-3, AU, AAX formats and standalone application are available. On Windows, the software works as VST-2, VST-3, AAX, and standalone application.
Can multiple MIDI parameters be controlled simultaneously?
Up to eight modulation sequences can run in parallel. Each CC lane sends values from 0 to 127 to the chosen MIDI controller.
How to create polymetric patterns with this sequencer?
Each lane can have a distinct length, for example 16, 15, or 29 steps. The cycles then gradually phase-shift. Up to 16 patterns can be chained and triggered via keyboard.
Does the sequencer allow generating chords and rolls?
The 5-in-1 Performance Sequencer adds polyphonic chords, rolls, octave changes, and 20 types of Pitch Bend per step.
Can MIDI sequences created in Thesys be exported?
MIDI export is done via drag-and-drop. MIDI Out is available in VST-2 and AAX formats, while the AU version can operate as MIDI FX to control other Audio Units.
