Code Sequencer

Write music as code in Strudel or Symbolic Cycle, and hear it as MIDI.

About

Write patterns in Strudel, or in Symbolic Cycle, which adds chords, keys, drum names and seeded generators that draft progressions, melodies and basslines. Click a value in the code to change it with a control, and watch every part in the MIDI roll.

Each part plays on its own MIDI channel. On this page a built-in voice plays them; in a rack, send the channels to different instruments, or export the parts as a MIDI file for your DAW.

How it works.

The code is prepared into a finite MIDI timeline outside the audio callback, and the module's Processor plays it on the sample clock. The Symbolic Cycle guide in the docs covers the language.

Goes well with.
