Intellijel Metropolix
A Eurorack sequencer that builds on the hands-on, dynamic sequencing of its predecessor
Overview
The Intellijel Metropolix is a multitrack Eurorack sequencer built for tactile, real-time control. It grows out of the earlier Metropolis module and adds a more flexible sequencing architecture. The layout is eight stages rather than traditional steps. Each step can carry up to eight note triggers, and each stage has four gate modes with eight pulse counts. MIDI sequencing over USB arrived with firmware version 1.4.1. A Chain feature handles pattern transitions hands-free, which suits live performance and modular integration.

Design
The Metropolix expands on the real-time, hands-on, dynamic sequencing of its predecessor. It has eight stages instead of conventional steps, and the workflow is aimed at performance. Firmware updates added MIDI sequencing over USB. The Chain feature links preset patterns for automated playback, so patterns can change without the player touching the module during a modular performance.
Context
Intellijel positions the Metropolix as a sequel to the Intellijel Metropolis, and it keeps the same core sequencing approach. It also continues Intellijel's focus on performance-centric Eurorack design. A matching "Backpack" accessory is documented, pointing to expansion or mounting options for live use.
