Breakage 23

Breakage raises the bar for live drum machine programming and performance. Where traditional step sequencers edit one note at time, Breakage adds neural network and pattern morphing functions to allow composition above the note level.

Breakage is an artificially intelligent drum machine which learns from trends in your rhythms so it can accompany your drumming.

Patterns are written in a step sequencer grid and a neural network is set to learn relationships between drums. After training, the network is able to accompany your drum programming in real time.

For example: you write five patterns with kick, snare, closed and open hi hat channels, train the network to relate the kick + snare and closed + open hats. Now the hi-hats automatically respond to changes you make on the kick + snare channels.
