Dhalang Microtonal Groovebox

[Zadarpadov]

Hello,

 

I thought maybe I could find potential users and other interested folks at this forum for my microtonal algorithmic all-in-one groovebox software that I've been developing last 4 years. It is a sort of community project where new features get added by user requests and feedback.

 

Here is an "official" press info about the software/app:
 

 

 

Dhalang Microtonal Groovebox is a standalone music software for easy and accessible use of alternative tuning systems in electronic music composition, production and performance. Dhalang offers internal synthesizers and samplers with multi-track mixing and effecting possibilities that can be controlled with internal sequencers, computer input or standard MIDI input. In addition to it’s traditional multi-track piano roll editing and sequencing, Dhalang also features several generative and algorithmic methods for more experimental sequencing of ((micro)tonal) music.

Features in short:

• Various preset tuning systems and scales with a custom tuning editor.
• Analog-style, physically modeled, additive and FM synthesis methods.
• Multiple parts of monophonic and polyphonic synthesizers.
• Audio Sampling with mini granulizer and audio data auto-slicing.
• Many sequencer types; piano roll, control automation, vector, matrix and particle.
• Mixer with four stereo buses and various sound effects.
• Offline rendering of stereo and individual tracks, MIDI import and export.
• Real-time MIDI input and output.
• Network synchronization of various cross-platform Dhalang instances.
• Many UI color themes and support for various languages.

Currently available for Mac OS X and iOS Tablets at App Store.

Free Lite version is the full software without saving, loading and midi functionalities.

There has been a lot of discussion about Dhalang at the Audiobus forum, mostly by iOS users and I am looking the same with Mac users.

I am myself more of a Mac user but I don't really use other programs/systems than Logic and diy.

 

If this post is a too much of an advert, please tell me and I will change it or move it accordingly.

Wait... Steam Greenlight for PC? Any reason this can't just be used as a purchased standalone EXE?

[Zadarpadov]

I am currently processing Dhalang to be available from Microsoft Store (Windows 8 and Windows 10) as a standalone executable. Yeah, Steam Greenlight was a little far off, but I'm not (yet) very familiar with Windows distribution systems and currently I have no resources/time to build my own system for payments/licenses/updates/taxes/etc.

This looks cool. I'll try it out tonight
