Senode is a MIDI sequencer app for iOS written by drummer and sound artist Sebastian Arnold. Just recently the app was extended to be available as an AUv3 plugin, making it easy to integrate into more complex setups of software instruments on iOS DAWs.

HOW IT WORKS The app generates its musical output from a graph of nodes connected by edges. Each node triggers a note or chord when activated. Nodes can easily be recorded from MIDI input and organized using the multi-touch interface. Edges connect the nodes and determine the direction of travel. Each edge is assigned a probability, so it is possible to introduce randomized variations into the graphical composition. Multiple instruments can be controlled by emitters which send their tokens onto the graph and generate polyphonic music from the movement of the tokens. Senode synchronizes its clock to Ableton Link or integrates as AUv3 plugin with the host app. All actions are MIDI bindable, so the emitters can be triggered in real time from drum pads, sensors or other apps.
