Chris Korda | The Polymeter MIDI Sequencer: Fazo Kanto @ckorda | Uploaded July 2022 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Polymeter is a free software MIDI sequencer for music that's in multiple prime meters simultaneously. Each track has its own loop length, and when the lengths differ, the tracks "slip" (or shift phase) relative to each other. This video shows Polymeter's user interface while it plays the song "Fazo Kanto" from my album "Akoko Ajeji." The song is simultaneously in 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 17. The tracks are shown looping independently, and the phase diagram in the lower right corner indicates convergences between the various loop lengths. The graph in the upper right corner shows the modulations, and it updates dynamically when tracks are muted or unmuted, a new feature in version 1.0.10.0. Each MIDI channel is shown on its own keyboard, another recently added feature. For more info: polymeter.sourceforge.io or victimofleisure.github.io/Polymeter
