      The instrument in particular I'm looking to credit is the Roland PMA-5, a stand-alone unit (some links below). Most credits (I assume, at least) would be for programming.

      May or may not be correct to include DAWs in general (like FL Studio, Garage Band, etc.), as they have all of the same functionality as a sequencer.

          [INST-1038] Sequencer

          Aszazin added a comment -

          An example:

          Throbbing Griste: 20 Jazz Funk Greats.

          Chris Carter is credited for Sequencers, but no appropriate credit is available.

          Currently I used Programming -> Instrument: synthesizer [sequencers].

          But it is not specified a synthesizer is sequenced. I make electronic music myself, and a sequencer can be integrated in a drum machine or synthesizer, but it can also be a stand alone instrument sending out voltage pulses and/or fluctuations which can drive anything that reacts on voltages (speaking 1979). Intended to drive synths & drum machines, but also used outside that scope, you can even connect the CV out to an audio in, or disturb other signals. Few years later, MIDI sequencers came, which can drive anything accepting MIDI signals, which might include video, computers (Midi can take care of keyboard input, for instance) etc.

          And there are also MIDI to CV and CV to MIDI converters.

          In other words: the credit sequencer, without being specified what is sequenced, should just be that "sequencer", not synthesizer, drum machine or whatever, as it would be speculation.

          I think "sequencer" should be an instrument.

          Probably most appropriate would be to enter Programming -> Instrument: sequencer

          But just Instrument -> Instrument: sequencer should be right as well. The sequencer on the 2 Moogs I have can just be played. You program a sequence, then you "play" the sequence with the keyboard (changing pitch, legato would continue the sequence, non-legato would restart the sequence, setting at "record" while playing the sequence changes the sequence on the fly, during the performance.

          In that sense, a sequencer is to be considered an instrument that can be played (but always involves programming too.)
