Kenaxis 2.34

Kenaxis is a loop based software that allows you to easily manipulate sound in many creative ways. Designed to be used by musicians interested in being able to interact with other players or create solo works, Kenaxis transforms your computer into a powerful instrument of real-time musical expression.

It works by playing back prerecorded sounds from your hard disk, and/or by capturing sounds from an external source on the fly. The pitch, loop points and volume can all be easily controlled to create all kinds of sonic textures.

There are many more advanced features as well such as full MIDI, joystick, and/or random generated control of all parameters. Granular synthesis, analog synthesis and a multi file player are included as well.

Kenaxis is made up of 4 main parts: the 6 klangs, the 2 basuneras, the granular synth, and the mixer. In addition there is an analog synth, and various screens for setting up control of all of these parts via random generators, joystick, or MIDI control. These extra windows may be accessed from the Extras menu.

Kenaxis has default setups to be used by the Wingman Rumble Pad Joystick, and the Evolution UC-33 or UC-33e MIDI controller. Other controllers can be easily configured for use as well. While using a keyboard and mouse goes a long way, to realize the full potential of Kenaxis, a MIDI controller is invaluable.
