Sector Turns Your iPad Into A Stochastic Sample Slice Sequencer

Composer/developer Jonatan Liljedahl (Kymatica) has released Sector – a new app for iPad that lets you slice and sequence your loops with a network of Markov-chain connections. A Markov chain is a stochastic process where what happens next depends only on the current state of the system. According to Liljedahl the uniquely visual loop slice sequencer lets… Read More Sector Turns Your iPad Into A Stochastic Sample Slice Sequencer

New Eurorack Modular, Mr. Crotchety, Does What It Damn Well Pleases

Division 6 has announced a new module for Eurorack synthesizers , Mr. Crotchety, that does what it damn well pleases. Here’s how they explain it: At its heart, Mr. Crotchety is a random voltage generator. …only it’s not really random. This module has moods. I’d love to explain how to use it, but during development… Read More New Eurorack Modular, Mr. Crotchety, Does What It Damn Well Pleases
