Using Patchwork Note Sequencer Devices in Fortnite Creative
The Note Sequencer (N-SEQR) is a device that you can use to place notes on a grid to create a looping pattern. It is an easy way to start the device chain that results in audio.
You can specify the notes that you want to hear, or randomize the note grid before connecting this sequencer to an audio generator device and then into an output device to hear the result.
Device Options
All of the settings that can be manipulated with the Patchwork Tool can also be adjusted using the Customize panel in Create mode, or using the Details panel in UEFN.

| 3. Note Out Cable | N/A | The Note Out cable needs to be connected to a yellow Note In port. |
| 4. Auto Page | On, Off | Toggles whether the sequencer cycles through every populated page, or remains on the current page only. Whenever Auto-Page is turned on, the sequencer will be synced with the global timeline as if they both started at the same time. When you make changes to the Sequencer that would put them out of sync, Auto-Page will automatically turn off. Turn Auto-Page on again to restore the sync. |

| 15. Style Carousel | Straight, Triplet, Dotted | Sets the timing modifier for the selected rate. Straight will divide the pulse by halves, Triplet will divide the pulse by thirds, and Dotted will create a more syncopated feel. This can change where the downbeat indicator appears above the grid. |
