    Amazing, amazing app. Percussion, melody, polyrhythms, midi-out—any kind of permutation you can imagine—all mixed together in glorious unison.
  • Polyrhythm lovers need this!

    Easily create polyrhythms and morph them with different modes. A lot of fun.
  • Fantastic app

    This is so much fun to play with! Thank you so much for developing this.
  • Paying for midi outputs?

    Well Jeff, that post was 6 months ago? I wish I could show everyone the screenshot that I have with me. It says “Enable MIDI?
    Sending midi to other application/Devices is available as an in-app purchase ($4.99). If you would like to enable sending midi, select ‘Purchase Send MIDI’’. If you have reinstalled Concentric Rhythm and need to restore the purchase, select Restore Send MIDI’.
    It showed 6 months ago on 1 option. 1: Purchase Send Midi.
    After checking back 6 months later, it now shows 2 options.
    1: Purchase send Midi.
    2: Restore Send Midi.

    There was no restore send midi option when that post was made but if you were concerned about what people were saying, maybe you should pay close attention to your customers and ratings.
    I’ve updated my rating to 4.

    I had a conversation with this guy about making this app with 16 midi outputs a few months ago, even sent him some concepts. That’s when I paid for this app and midi outputs was part of the purchase. Now it still doesn’t even have 16 midi outputs and he’s charging people to use 1 midi output?

    Unbelievable.

    This is somewhat misleading. The MIDI IAP lets you send each ring to a different MIDI channel. You can use up to 9 rings, so you can send to 9 different channels simultaneously (but you can assign each ring to any 9 of the 16 channels). I don't understand what you mean when you say I am 'charging people to use 1 midi output'? There are as many outputs as there are rings - and there are 9 rings. Most people don't even use all 9. Anyway, I do appreciate that you took the time to email me an alternative layout idea for the UI - but after consideration, I decided not to implement it. I found that adding more rings to the screen made the app more difficult to use. I love it that people send me their ideas for the app - but not all ideas are workable.
  • Fantastic. Great UI. Great results.

    Have barely started using this (in fact I didn’t even know what Euclidean rhythms even were until yesterday) , but the interface is so well put together that it strikes exactly the right balance between helping you just enough, without getting in the way, and lets you start experimenting straight away.

    Sounds great, looks great as well.

  • Nice little app

    This is a very fun app to play with, I would suggest you save regularly as I have had a few crashes and midi export would be a really cool feature that is missing.
  • Inspiring!

    I was looking for an app that would allow me to experiment with polyrhythms & this one is just great!.. 10/10 to the person who had this idea. It’s a beautiful, elegant interface, with a very well designed look & feel.. I would love to see a paid version with more features, like being able to string together sequences of patterns.. great!! Well done & thanks!!

  • Fantastic App

    First app that caught my attention after inheriting an I phone. Just playing with these rhythms in the app is an endless source of entertainment, fascinating how how your attention is drawn from element to element when you listen to a loop over a long period. Have the capacity to output midi now so with a little bit of work and a suitable assigned drum rack in Ableton I should have the basis for some interesting tracks. Have to say I enjoy the quality of the included samples.

  • My new go-to Euclid app

    This is a very high quality Euclidean sequencer. Enough said.
  • PHENOMENAL

    This app is the perfect starting point to teach polyrhythms. Well made and good user interface.
    Thank you!!
