Senode - Graph Sequencer is a unique music app designed for those who love exploring complex sounds. Drawing inspiration from finite state machines, Senode operates like a polyphonic modular step sequencer with probabilistic steps. This makes it an excellent choice for anyone interested in generative music or looking to set up intricate sequencing.

One key feature of Senode is its ability to synchronize with Ableton Link, allowing you to stay in time with other apps. It also functions as an AUv3 plugin, integrating seamlessly with your favorite music software. Every action within the app is MIDI bindable, meaning you can trigger steps in real time from drum pads, sensors, or other applications, making it a fantastic live-performance instrument.

At the heart of Senode is a graph sequencer built from connected nodes. You have the freedom to decide how Senode plays, whether it resembles a simple vending machine or a complex pinball game. Each node can activate a sound, while edges guide the path of the music. Instruments are managed by emitters that distribute tokens across the graph to generate MIDI signals. This allows you to craft a complete generative music piece for an entire orchestra using the graph notation and just a few emitters. It becomes even more exciting when you incorporate randomization in sequences, enabling you to emit multiple tokens at different times.

Senode features an intuitive multi-touch interface, allowing you to compose and perform music live. You can easily create, drag, and connect nodes with your fingers. The on-screen keyboard helps you visualize and edit notes without hassle.

The app includes an integrated subtractive synthesizer that has a main oscillator featuring sine, saw, square, and noise sounds. It also has a sub oscillator, a lowpass filter, stereo reverb, and an ADSR envelope to shape your sounds. You can play with demo patches to ignite your creativity.

For innovative MIDI control, the step recording feature allows you to create new nodes quickly, whether it's from single notes or using chord detection. Whether you use a drum kit or wearable sensors, you can control the steps of Senode with ease, giving you the unique chance to be your own clock.

Senode is perfect for any MIDI-capable apps, enabling you to play in sync with other tools via Ableton Link. If you connect a MIDI interface, you can even control your hardware synths directly from the app, enhancing your music-making experience.

Built for live music performance, Senode operates without default beats or bars. All actions occur in real time. Tokens can be quantized to a clock, allowing for precision in timing. The catch-up functionality means you'll always stay in sync, even if your timing is slightly off. Exciting musical ideas emerge when you break away from traditional 4/4 patterns, trying off-beat timings, or exploring polyrhythmic cycles.

Key features of Senode include a non-linear graphical sequencer with a draggable multi-touch interface. It supports unlimited notes or chords per step with adjustable velocity, legato, or fixed-length notes. You can also create an unlimited number of steps and directions, allowing for cycles, randomization, round-robin, or one-shot play styles. Multi-timbral patches with polyphonic emitters, a live arpeggiator mode, and real-time sequencer control using tempo synchronization are also available.

The app supports scene handling features for arranging songs, MIDI device input and output, and has velocity-sensitive bindings for all sequencer operations, such as step, emit, tick, trigger, or clear. Additionally, you'll enjoy functions like copy and paste, transpose, and clock divide, making it a versatile tool for music creation.

Senode offers tutorial patches and example patches that you can play instantly, helping you get started right away and explore everything the app has to offer. Embrace the freedom of creating with Senode, and discover how it enables you to bring your musical visions to life.
