From a graphic designer's perspective, I always wanted to experiment with music making but struggled to understand the interfaces of any DAW I tried. for the uninitiated, it feels like being in the pilot's chair in an airplane where there are a million tiny levers and buttons and switches and it's not immediately clear what any of them do. But THIS makes use of grouping similar things together, which is like, one of the main tenants of graphic design, it makes something so much easier to understand. Having little closed circuits in different areas for baseline, main melody, percussion, etc. makes this SO much easier to understand for me. I hope there's some settings where we could make circuit lines bolder or thinner as well, having something like that would help immensely with visual hierarchy and make things even more readable. Your loudest main melody could be bold lines and quieter backround circuits could be thinner. I'm so excited about this, thank you for making a video about it!!!

Trains can have different tempo or run through a crossover (that may split it to exit at both ends) etc. etc.

This is incredible. Being a software developer, and music producer I would be lying If I haven't though of doing one application similar to this. MIDINOUS is incredible, and I feel that this, or any other software in this line, can be enough to open creation to new grounds. Think like the game of life, where new patterns, or music "factories", can be discovered, shared, and people might generate their own music styles, within a template or pattern. Add some voice generation, and some effects gimmics, and it's a full one man music producing studio.

This is really cool. Not only is it a very intuitive way to make loops and beats, but I can see the generative functions being used in all sorts of settings from Spas, to Video Game BGM, to live presentations. Would be need to see some "effect" pads that could do things like change the key or tempo, add vibrato, or even lock out a pad so it can't be activated until other conditions are met (time elapse, a number of pulses hit the pad, or hit other pads, etc)

Seems cool, and different enough from existing node-based graphical coding systems like PureData and MaxMSP that it's adding something novel to the mix.

One time I actually started burning out on music a long time ago. Was only classically trained at that time playing only prewritten compositions. But then I discovered improv, and it was like just discovering music all over again from the very beginning. Tried to node based playing, particularly on iPad, but improv always gets me excited for music again.

This is actually very common with a lot of younger Classically trained pianists I noticed, I see lots of posts online about it and I always found it very bizarre from the perspective of someone self-taught from a Jazz background on piano with an emphasis on just theory, and jammin' where ever my heart takes me

One thing I really like about is that you can have all your instruments right in front of you, without having to select and switch instruments or adjust windows around so you can see more of them at once... They're just all there, and you also have whole patterns on screen, without having to constantly side-scroll around. I find it much more practical to zoom and pan around in this "worktable" kind of workflow.

I was literally trying to find an app like this on Steam this past weekend. Amazing timing! Music software is either extremely under represented on Steam, or impossible to search.

I've always been interested in things like these because I have a lot of interest in music and sound design, but I find myself very weak at composition and struggle to do much beyond making ambience. This approach to music really tickles my programmer side and fits into a view of making music that feels better suited for the way I think. Maybe some day I'll have the time and money to invest into it because it looks really cool.

I gotta say virtualizing the expensive option is amazing. VR synth is amazing. It has a long way to go before we're building custom electronics and really cracking the ceiling, but it's well on its way.

I've always wanted to get into making music to align with my stories, but DAW's and other software have always been extremely intimidating to me. Maybe it's because I'm an engineer by trade, but learning that something like this exists is extremely invigorating. This is the first time I've looked at music software that my brain just almost immediately began understanding without feeling completely overwhelmed. Thank you for sharing!

13:00 one side effect of this way of making music is that you'll naturally get REALLY CRAZY polyrythms everywhere, & while that sounds good, it feels like it'll be a little too chaotic by times so one should add a little more rules to the way you're laying the notes or do it more consciously.
