FAQs

Do I need Omniclock to use this?

No. omniGRID is a completely standalone plugin and does not require Omniclock or any other Rapid Flow product. Load omniGRID in your DAW, route its MIDI to your chosen instrument or hardware, and start sequencing.

What does omniGRID do?

omniGRID is a 16-track MIDI step sequencer built for creating and shaping grooves inside your DAW. Build patterns up to 64 steps, generate rhythms with Euclidean sequencing, control individual steps with probability, repeats, timing, velocity and more, then route the MIDI to your plugins or external hardware.

How do I transition from Trial Mode to a purchased license?

License activation updates automatically. Just make sure to use the exact same email address when purchasing the license as you used when activating the trial

Can omniGRID be used to trigger external synths?

Yes.omniGRID functions as a flexible MIDI processor. You can assign custom MIDI note outputs and channels to each of its 16 tracks, allowing you to trigger internal VST/AU instruments or route MIDI out through your audio interface to drive external hardware synths, drum machines, and rack units

Shift doesn’t work properly. How do I fix it?

Make sure the instrument you are sending MIDI into doesn’t quantize the incoming MIDI. This can cause the time shit or shuffle in miniGRID to misbehave.

Does omniGRID generate sound?

No. omniGRID is a MIDI effect and does not generate sound on its own. It sends MIDI to your software instruments or external hardware, giving you control over the patterns, notes, timing, groove, and movement.

How do I get the 0.02 ms step resolution for the Shift parameter?

Hold the Shift modifier key while dragging the Shift (time shift) control to use a 0.02 ms step resolution. Otherwise, the default step resolution is 0.2 ms.

Can I use omniGRID with any instrument plugin?

Yes. omniGRID can sequence any instrument plugin that accepts MIDI input. Simply route omniGRID’s MIDI output to your chosen instrument and start building your sequence.

How do I route omniGRID in Ableton Live?

1. Add omniGRID to a new MIDI track.

2. Create a second MIDI track with your target instrument.

3. On the instrument track, set MIDI From to the omniGRID track, then select omniGRID in the dropdown directly below (channel selector).

4. Set the instrument track’s Monitor to In and leave omniGRID’s Monitor set to Auto.

How do I route omniGRID in FL Studio?

  1. Insert omniGRID into a Mixer slot (Master insert recommended).
  2. Open omniGRID’s plugin wrapper menu (v) → Settings, and choose a free MIDI output port (e.g., Port 1).
  3. Open the wrapper settings on your target plugin generator and set its MIDI input port to match (Port 1).
  4. Under omniGRID’s wrapper Processing tab, turn Allow smart disable off.

How do I set up omniGRID in Logic Pro?

1. Create a Software Instrument track with your synth or sampler.

2. Click the top MIDI FX slot on the track’s channel strip.

3. Select Rapid Flow → omniGRID. (MIDI FX feed the instrument directly on the same channel strip without extra routing.)

Why does the AU version of omniGRID not show up in my DAW?

The AU version of omniGRID only appears in DAWs that support MIDI FX slots. If your DAW doesn’t support MIDI FX, please use the VST3 version instead.

How do I route omniGRID in Cubase / Nuendo?

1. Insert omniGRID on any track (Audio, Group, or Instrument slot).

2. Create an Instrument track with your target instrument.

3. Set the instrument track’s MIDI Input to omniGRID.

4. Enable Input Monitoring on the instrument track.

How do I route omniGRID in Pro Tools?

1. Insert omniGRID on a track as an AAX effect.

2. Create an Instrument track with your software instrument.

3. Switch the fader I/O display to Instrument I/O.

4. Select omniGRID as the track’s MIDI input.

What is the easiest way to run omniGRID in Bitwig or REAPER?

Place omniGRID directly before your instrument in the same device/FX chain. Both DAWs automatically pass omniGRID’s generated MIDI to the instrument that follows it.

The first step doesn’t seem to send MIDI to my instrument. How do I fix it?

If you set a negative time shift, the first step would have to play before you start the transport. Every time you restart the transport or loop back to the beginning of your loop arrangement, the first steps with negative time shift in all lanes will be “skipped.”

Minigrid

Plugin i was waiting for a long time.

Minigrid

MiniGRID already has the feel of a tool built by someone who really knows the subject. The millisecond-level shift per lane, the groove control, the shuffle — these aren't boxes checked off a list, they're real musical intent. You're not just building a sequencer, you're building a way to let the machine breathe. That's exactly the kind of detail that separates a passion project from a generic one. The fact that you're thinking about the *why* — how a note sits against the beat — shows you're going for the feel, not just the function. That's the hardest thing to get right, and it's what gives an instrument a soul. Keep going. Every iteration is going to sharpen that feel. The idea is there, the direction is good — now it's the patient work that'll turn a strong concept into something people want to keep open for hours. Can't wait to see where it goes.

Minigrid

It actually brings new ideas and rhythms to my synths and drums. Especially I like using to experiment with the randombutton for velocity and the results... Nice.... :-)

Minigrid

Innovative and easy to use plugin. Very helpful. Thank you! :-)

Excellent

Minigrid

I have not played around with it as much as I would like too. Considering that I am taking some new medicine and I have to be attentive to me be careful with symptoms. That I may have at some point. I know that this is not the review that you are looking for but the plug-in sounds terrific and is awesome with everything amount of detail.

Minigrid

le service de support est incontestable le lien n'est pas en service ... très bien en vidéo mais en réalité très compliquée a avoir un support ... sur leur page le lien support ne marche pas ????

Minigrid

Bitwig fantastic Pro tools - had to have it b4 other plugins, I figured it out Luna - haven’t tried yet

Minigrid

Perfect!

Minigrid

Still getting to grips with this plugin but just loving the potential

Minigrid

I only wish it had more outputs.

Minigrid

Love the timing nuance the Minigrid provides

Minigrid

Super good idea, very well implemented. I use and love it. :)

Minigrid

Simple, yet brilliant!

Minigrid

Please make this Plugin Support velocitty, that’s all is missing ! Thanks!

Minigrid

Store owner replied: Hi Peter, the free update now supports velocity and MIDI export!

For an intro version, I'm enjoying being able to nudge timing of notes using this VST mapped to my controller. Looking forward to what will be added in future releases

Minigrid

Great!

Minigrid

It’s ok. Not worth the asking price as it does t bring much to the table.

Minigrid

I used to have an SP1200. I would still rather have it, but I had to sell it because I needed the money. The quality of the sequencing groove in that machine is equal to its sound. Once again, I have that groove back, plus so many more. When people justifiably favour outboard instruments and sequencers over ITB/DAWs, the sound is often the hero, but the groove and timing are a big part of that feel. So this is just what I needed as the best compromise, and I could not understand why it had not been done before. As I have wished for this for many years, finally! Thank you

Minigrid

It a great addition to my workflow and inspires new ideas when using it. Songs I’ve worked on have a more professional vibe thanks to the swing you can change per sample. Great job!

Minigrid

Great addition to help speed up my workflow!

Minigrid

Amazing device! Awaiting for the updates with probability,velocity and randomization functions!🙏
