In the box, you\u2019ll find a card with \u201cWelcome\u201d written on it in many languages. The card also contains a QR code. Scan it, or click this link to Yamaha\u2019s registration page<\/a>. On the page, click Register Now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the sign-up page, fill out the information, then create a new Yamaha user account or log in to your existing account. Enter the product name, Seqtrak, and the serial number from the bottom of the unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Next, on your computer, go to the Seqtrak download page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The home screen of the Yamaha Seqtrack app<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n While you can make music on the Seqtrak alone, it has no display screen to give you information about its many functions. The Seqtrak is much easier to learn to use if you connect the Seqtrak to your computer, phone, or tablet and use the Seqtrak app<\/strong>. The app also makes it easier to access all the Seqtrak\u2019s features. The app provides detailed displays of all the features and enables you to access effects and libraries of sounds you can\u2019t access from the hardware alone. The app also provides Yamaha\u2019s amazing Dynamic Tutorial<\/strong> for contextual help. Touch any button, knob, or pad on the Seqtrak, and the app\u2019s display will provide an explanation of its function and how to use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Visualizer mode in the Seqtrak app<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Seqtrak app provides the amazing Seqtrak Visualizer<\/strong>, which lets you program live, dynamic videos with elements that follow and react to the beats and musical events in your sequences. Once you see it, you\u2019ll understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use the Seqtrak app to download additional sound libraries from Yamaha.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Among its many other features, using the Seqtrak app is how you download hundreds of additional drum and synthesizer sounds and samples from Yamaha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Download the Seqtrak app for Mac or Windows<\/a> from the Firmware\/Software section of the Downloads page. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are on Windows, you must also download and install the Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver for Windows<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n On macOS, the Seqtrak\u2019s connection is class-compliant, meaning no custom driver is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Connecting your Seqtrak to your Mac or your Windows PC via the USB-C cable enables you not only to use the Seqtrak app, but also to charge the Seqtrak\u2019s internal battery from your computer and to transmit digital audio from the Seqtrak to your DAW for recording. It\u2019s also possible to connect the Seqtrak to your Mac or PC via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yamaha also provides versions of the Seqtrak app for iOS, iPadOS, and Android<\/strong>. These can connect to the Seqtrak over Bluetooth or USB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On your iPhone or iPad, download the Seqtrak app from the Mac App Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On your Android device, download the Seqtrak app from Google Play<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The tutorial videos below will explain how to make the Bluetooth connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even if you are using the Seqtrak app\u2019s Dynamic Tutorial function, you will want to download copies of the Seqtrak User Guide and other manuals for reference. Do so from the Manuals section of the Downloads page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The current version of the Seqtrak User Guide<\/a> is also online in HTML format here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your Seqtrak uses an internal battery; there is no place to insert your own batteries. You must use the USB-C connection to plug the Seqtrak into a power source to charge the battery for standalone use. It will take three to five hours to completely charge. You can use the Seqtrak while it\u2019s plugged in and charging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use the included USB-C cable to connect your Seqtrak to a Mac or a Windows PC with a USB-C port or to a powered USB hub. You can also use a USB power adaptor or a USB mobile battery (not included).
