The D-Thing enhances the inbuilt sequencer of the DFAM in many respects - Reset, Patterns and pattern length, MIDI connectivity and control, and more.
Firmware 1.5 brings some major additions to the D-Thing's capabilities.
1. Multistep (ability to repeat any step up to 8 times)
2. Swing & microtiming (move beats off the grid by up to 33% ahead or behind)
3. Full compatibility with the Behringer Edge.
This video demonstrates the swing and microtiming capability.
