Coming soon / Algorithm Engine

Vekte

A 16-instance algorithmic MIDI sequencer built to turn one browser tab into a polymetric composition environment.

Thirty-one mathematical and computational engines drive five independent lanes per instance: Note, Velocity, Length, CC1, and CC2. You choose the engine, shape the parameters, and sculpt the result until the chaos starts behaving musically.

System overview

One instrument. Sixteen simultaneous minds.

Each instance is a complete sequencer with its own MIDI channel, algorithms, lane settings, and playback state. Click tabs to edit one voice, enable multiple tabs, and Vekte turns into a layered composition machine.

Independent channels

Instance 1 transmits on CH1, Instance 2 on CH2, and so on through CH16. Enabled tabs run together, letting bass, lead, pad, percussion, and modulation move as separate organisms.

Polymetric lanes

Every lane carries its own step count, division, rotation, algorithm, and parameters. A 5-step velocity lane can grind against 16-step notes while CC curves sweep at half-speed.

Direct intervention

Holes, probability, rotation, auto-rotate, click-and-drag piano-roll edits, and lane locks keep the generated material editable instead of untouchable.

// NOTE

Pitch, triggers, and chord voicing

Choose any of the 31 engines, quantize to one of 73 scales, switch from monophonic lines to 18 chord types, then edit the piano roll directly when the math lands on something worth keeping.

// VEL

Dynamic contour

Velocity stays in a 0-127 range, with algorithmic patterns shaping accent, contour, and repetition. Min/max bounds keep the lane playable while still leaving room for surprise.

// LEN

Gate time as composition

Length lanes define duration before note-off. GATE mode snaps values to a two-state performance range; RND mode sprays durations between your minimum and maximum.

// CC1

Automation lane one

Feed hardware or software parameters with stepped or curved modulation. In CRV mode Vekte sends smooth bezier-style interpolation instead of discrete jumps.

// CC2

Automation lane two

Run a second controller independently for filter, resonance, macro movement, or any parameter that benefits from long-form cyclic behavior.

31 engines

Mathematics, memory, geometry, and emergence.

The manual groups Vekte’s generators into families. The same engine that makes a note melody can also drive velocity, gate length, or controller movement.

Original engines

Euclidean, Random Walk, Kaprekar, Fibonacci, Primes, and Thue-Morse form the core: evenly distributed hits, wandering pitch lines, self-similar patterns, and numeric sequences that remain musical under constraint.

Chaos & geometry

Logistic Map, Polyrhythm, Bresenham, Voice Leading, and Cantor Set move from stable cycles into controlled instability, dense edge-biased rhythms, and recursive silence.

Physics & memory

Penrose, Harmonic Series, Lissajous, and Drunk with Memory turn overtone logic, quasiperiodic structures, zero-crossing motion, and remembered pitch histories into living phrases.

Nature & emergence

Game of Life, Turing Pattern, Gravity Wells, Wave Interference, String Resonance, Entropy Gradient, and Flocking push the engine into cellular automata, reaction diffusion, resonance, and decaying structure.

Rather than programming notes one by one, you choose an algorithm, adjust its parameters, and keep the material that survives your edits.

Scale & harmony

73 scales. 18 chord types. One quantized field.

Vekte moves from common tonal systems into modal, world, jazz, constructed, and equal temperament territory. NONE leaves the stream chromatic. Chords can expand any note event into stacked harmony on output.

Scale families

Major, natural minor, pentatonic, blue, Dorian, Mixolydian, harmonic minor, bebop, Hirajoshi, Iwato, Persian, Enigmatic, whole tone, quarter-tone, and more.

Chord palette

Major, minor, 5ths, diminished, augmented, maj7, 7, min7, sus2, sus4, add9, maj9, min9, 6, min6, 7sus4, and maj13 voicings are all available from the note lane.

Workflow

Built for sessions, sets, and long-form arrangements.

The manual treats Vekte as a practical composition tool, not just a generator. Save full songs, keep per-instance presets, sync hardware over MIDI clock, and use undo as aggressively as you randomize.

Song save / load

Export a complete 16-instance session as a .vekte JSON file and load it back intact, including algorithms, lane values, and BPM.

Presets per instance

Store browser-persistent quick saves, session snapshots, or shareable hex keys and QR codes for a single sequencer state.

MIDI clock in / out

Receive external clock and transport, or send Start, Stop, and 24 ppqn timing so hardware synths and drum machines follow Vekte’s tempo.

Performance control

Lock lanes, hit Randomize All, mute instances on the fly, and let probability plus CC curves push a stable composition toward controlled volatility.
