Mutable Dreams for MPC | Product Preview · 3 Songs, 271 Biomes & a Playable Garden

video upload by Kid Bunka

"A garden that makes music — and an instrument you can play.

This product preview introduces Mutable Dreams for MPC by Kid Bunka: six generative tracks, playable instruments, performance pads and a botanical interface that moves with the music. This walkthrough follows three original short pieces rather than one repeated loop.

00:00 Night Garden — presets, macros and playable keys
00:33 Performance pads — textures and space
00:47 Shape, echo, hall and movement
01:20 Worlds That Think — WORLDS, LOGIC and SYNTH
02:21 Biomes and the engine-tone browser
02:36 Mutable Machines — Plaits, Braids, Rings and Elements
03:13 Modules and resonators
03:23 Clouds, Spectral and Beads
03:39 Freeze, final notes and credits

INSIDE THE PREVIEW
• 271 Biomes, 48 Worlds and 121 programs in the MPC preset list.
• Six generative tracks, or engine tones played with up to six voices.
• Playable Plaits / Braids, plus Rings and Elements instruments. Plaits offers up to 12 voices; the voice limit depends on the instrument and available DSP time.
• 16 performance pads for harmony, textures, space and form; velocity / pressure input where delivered by the host.
• Gesture capture, looping, overdub and six recallable Moments.
• Seven LOGIC rules and eight SYNTH engines.
• Warps, Rings, Clouds / Beads and Marbles integrations.
• Deep mode with stereo hall, ensemble and FM / VA unison, plus Classic mode for the earlier sound and saved projects.
• Main stereo mix and six dry track stereo pairs (14 output channels), subject to the host’s routing support.
• MPC transport, Q-Link control, MIDI input, project state and context help.

PRODUCT PREVIEW / COMPATIBILITY
This is a development preview. A public MPC release and download will be announced separately.
0.9.13 is a preview intended for Akai Gen 2 MPC models. Kid Bunka has tested and approved 0.9.13 on his Gen 2 MPC (confirmed 14 November 2026). This is not a claim that every Gen 2 model has been tested individually. Compatibility with older MPC models is still being investigated. A 32-bit file in a package is not a confirmation of older-model support. Use only a package and installation procedure confirmed for your exact MPC model and OS.

HOW THIS VIDEO WAS MADE
All music comes from the actual C++ plugin engine, rendered offline with scripted notes, pads and parameter moves. The interface is rendered on the Mac from the built plugin skin and synchronized parameter states. This is not a recording of an MPC screen or a filmed hardware performance. No voice-over.

THANK YOU
Every useful report, curious question and kind message has helped shape Mutable Dreams. I’m a beatmaker and producer building the instruments I want to play, and it means a lot that you’re exploring them with me. Thank you for helping this little garden grow.
