please note, as of JAN 2016:

i am gracious out of my mind for all your positive feedback and incredibly happy about how POLYRHYTHMUS was perceived in this community. i will be continuing my work on POLYRHYTHMUS 2, and i hope i'll do so soon (it's almost finished, damn!) – how ever i can't say when.

i am a freelancing and struggling graphics- and sound-designer and unfortunately have to prioritise the work i make a living off of. my next, yet ernest priority are the projects i get caught up in. i myself have gotten deeply into standalone sequencing-applications, which makes POLYRHYTHMUS currently obsolete as for my own needs. as many of you may know, being a freelancer is a balancing act between financial necessities, time management and passionate interests. work and creative leisure time. doing crap for money and doing stuff that you really love. i was hoping, that the donation-concept for this plugin could simplify this balancing act. unfortunately and to my regret, the world doesn't appear to work this way at all :) this results in: POLYRHYTHMUS currently being on hiatus, you guys waiting for a nifty new version and me myself spending time on stuff i like doing less that building free and fun tools for making music.

if you like POLYRHYTHMUS, consider a small donation via paypal benni(*AT*)fnfnfnfn.de. buy me a coffee and especially time and confidence to finish this thing *heart*

POLYRHYTHMUS is a rhythm sequencer, arpeggio builder, cc and parameter automator and mathematical geek.

build polyrhythmic (counterpoint, polymetric etc) patterns, use them (live) as arpeggiators and/or to sequence drums, CCs, parameters of your live etc. run sequences sinusodial, trigger one sequence with another, have 23 steps run in the same time as 5 others do, skip steps, randomize parameters and alot more. give the long video a chance.

thank you: there are other people who have had other approaches for euclidean rhythm-sequencing. check phil archer's "circle sequencers", wouter hisschemöller's "euclidean midi patterns" and/or read up on godfried toussaint's "the euclidean algorithm generates traditional musical rhythms"
