Hypercyclic

Hypercyclic is a plugin whose design is for crushing sustained MIDI input chords. This tool is an LFO-driven MIDI arpeggiator and a step and gate effect sequencer that can act as an audio unit or VST plugin. As this proves, it is very complete. In addition to this initial description, Hypercyclic fits any Digital Audio Workstation. Plus, it induces randomness and syncopation to sounds and it forces everything to align again afterwards. A true helper, if you ask us.

Hypercyclic: MIDI Everywhere

Hypercyclic intends to create MIDI content that you can record and send to other plugins. Producers can use several tempo-synched LFOs to modulate different parameters, as well as to generate unique chord variations and distinctive rhythmic effects. This plugin is quite useful for creating glitchy stuttering effects because it enables users to modulate the sequencer step size. Moreover, you can modify groove parameters while using it. 

Furthermore, Hypercyclic is a great tool for controlling analog synthesizers. This user-friendly plugin is available as a VST plugin or as a standalone program. And the benefits do not end: its interface is clean and quite simple to use. It features several settings at full display, including groove factors, MIDI I/O, chord arpeggiation, and trigger values. Its design is fairly neat and has great creative potential.

Talking About Arpeggiation

Hypercyclic is one of the best arpeggiator plugins. Among many reasons, it includes an instruction manual that contains full descriptions of each and every feature. Also, it includes configuration details for using the plugin with other sequencers and hosts. Particularly, the latest version includes several bug fixes. Examples of these are improvements regarding the groove timing and the MIDI song pointer. In addition, it also includes several new features, such as a new test synth with PADsynth algorithm, a new LFO waveform, as well as the possibility to accept MIDI sync messages.

Hypercyclic: Conclusion
