Rooted in tradition, built for creation
16 Percussion Voices
A full West-African percussion ensemble at your fingertips — djembe, kpanlogo, axatse, bells, and more, each voiced for authentic tonal character.
Polyrhythm & Polymeter
Independent per-voice loop lengths let you layer rhythms that cycle at different rates — the foundation of traditional West-African percussion.
RIE — Rhythmic Intelligence Engine
A self-generating ensemble and conductor mode. RIE builds evolving percussion arrangements rooted in Ghanaian rhythmic traditions.
Educational Angle
Learn the structure behind the rhythms. RIE explains the role of each voice in the ensemble and the traditions that shaped them.
Step Sequencer
Program intricate patterns on a visual grid. Per-voice step counts let you set up interlocking rhythms with precision.
Audio Export
Bounce your composition to a shareable audio file for use in productions or further arranging.
Rhythmic Intelligence Engine
The ensemble plays itself
Conductor Mode
RIE arranges voices into a living ensemble — building, shifting, and resolving patterns the way a master drummer would.
Self-Generating Patterns
Start with a single voice and let RIE layer in complementary rhythms drawn from Ghanaian percussion vocabulary.
Cultural Context
Each generated pattern comes with context — which tradition it references and how the voices relate to one another.
The rhythm is calling.
