Vekte Beta 1.2.0: Introducing ARP, Drumkit, and more modulations!

video upload by Våld Labs

"VEKTE 1.2 is here. 16 channels, 36 algorithms, fully deterministic — everything you see is everything it plays.

Every channel now has a mode. SEQ is the sequencer you know. ARP turns a channel into an arpeggiator that plays whatever pattern the engine generated, from your keyboard or driven by another VEKTE channel. KIT turns it into a fixed 12-note kit built from any scale. One octave, still very beta: point it at a drum kit mapped within one octave and let the algorithms play the pads.

Channels can play each other. Route a SEQ channel into an ARP channel and the sequence becomes the arp's conductor. Melodies that play melodies, chained as deep as you like.

APPROACH and FILL are two new humanizers that improvise in-scale passing notes between your notes. APPROACH sneaks short pickups in before the next note, FILL bridges the whole gap like a melodic tie. Deterministic, visible on the piano roll before they sound, always in key.

Plus ratchets with musical rates, six interpolation shapes for modulation, smarter ties that show what they play, humanize that wraps the loop, and three weeks of beta fixes. For now APPROACH, FILL and ratchet are reached through MOD lanes only. Dedicated knobs are coming.

Every patch is a short shareable key. Copy Key / Paste Key in the menu, paste yours in the comments.
