If you're really stuck on the sequencer thing, don't think of them as
sequencers at all, think of them as four somewhat odd LFOs, where each
cycle of the LFO is structured as a series of equal-sized steps (instead
of a single "ramp" or whatever as in a normal LFO).

You know how you can make the LFOs on some synths (e.g., the K2000) be
"steppy", and use them to make somewhat limited mini-sequences by
routing the LFO output to oscillator pitch?  The evolver "sequencers"
are like that, except they happen to be a lot easier to use in this
manner.
