Hypercyclic: An LFO-Driven MIDI Arpeggiator for Mangling MIDI

Press Here To Enter The Site

“hypercyclic is an LFO-driven MIDI arpeggiator, gate effect and step sequencer for mangling MIDI input chords. It won 2nd place in the KVRAudio.com Developer Challenge ’07.Two tempo-synced LFOs can be used to modulate various parameters to create interesting rhythmic effects and chord variations. A unique feature is the possiblity to modulate the sequencer step size itself, which is useful for creating glitchy stuttering effects.

The sweetspot for hypercyclic is the narrow border between chaos and regularity. Or, in other words, how to induce a certain pleasant randomness, yet forcing everything to align again on the bar or beat boundaries.

The product is further complemented by a groove function for playing slightly off the beat. The groove parameters can also be modulated over time by the LFOs, adding to the rhythmic variation.

“As the name of the site says, you will find here a list mainly devoted to synthesizers, but you will find also virtual instruments of other types, much fewer…
This list of freeware is not like the others that are on the web and has something special : it gives to you links for only the best free virtual instruments (for Windows), and is the result of many and long researches, after testing around one thousand instruments. My purpose is to avoid you getting stuck with the same job… All instruments are classified, but in an approximative way… When available, versions for other OS and formats are mentioned”
