This study aims to analyze the concept and the impact of sequencer usage in worship music arrangement at Gereja Bethel Indonesia Miracle Medan. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that the sequencer plays a significant role in maintaining tempo stability, enriching musical arrangements through sound layering, and supporting the management of dynamics and song transitions. The production process includes song selection, tempo determination, click track creation, addition of digital instruments, and structuring of the song within a digital audio environment. However, its use is not applied to all songs, particularly in sections that require flexibility and improvisation. Overall, the use of a sequencer contributes positively to musical quality and the creativity of the music team, although it also presents technical challenges and requires adaptation in its implementation.
