Hyperion by Xoxos: Algorithmic Freedom for MIDI
Hyperion by Xoxos is a unique MIDI VST plugin for Windows that stands out with its
semi-modular structure. It is designed for a wide range of tuned algorithmic
applications, providing musicians with powerful tools for generating,
manipulating, and dynamically developing MIDI data. Hyperion allows you to go beyond
standard patterns, creating unique and vibrant musical sequences.
Key Features and Functions
The plugin’s semi-modular architecture provides high flexibility, allowing you to create
various algorithmic patterns for melodic, rhythmic, and harmonic ideas.
- Dynamic Sequences: Using LFOs and counters allows you to easily create dynamic MIDI sequences with the ability to change “on the fly.” This adds an element of unpredictability and development to your MIDI tracks.
- Multi-Part Generation: The plugin can generate glissandos or varying sequences for up to three separate parts, each on its own MIDI channel. This simplifies the creation of multi-layered textures from a single source.
- Phrase Arpeggiator: The phrase arpeggiator function helps you stay in tune and follow set rhythmic/melodic patterns. This is a useful tool for structuring improvisations or introducing notes.
Hyperion is ideal for experimenters, electronic music producers, and composers who are looking for new ways to create unique musical content.
Its ability to intelligently process and generate MIDI data makes it a valuable addition
to any Windows-based studio.
