Wind Chimes is a generative MIDI instrument built around a physically simulated row of wind chimes. A simulated wind field sways the chimes, and when two collide, the struck one fires a MIDI note. Play it by hand, or let the wind play on its own. REAL WIND, REAL COLLISIONS • Up to 16 chimes hang in a graduated row • Chimes ring by knocking into each other, not a clapper • Tap, hold, or drag any chime to play it by hand • Gusts sweep across the row instead of hitting all at once CUSTOMIZE EVERY CHIME • Choose anywhere from 2 to 16 chimes • Spread the row from tightly packed to wide open • Length and Weight shape each chime's swing and reach • Go full screen for a bigger, more zen performance A GENERATIVE MIDI PLAYGROUND • Every chime's note comes from the current key and scale • Turn any chime's note off, or reassign it freely • Every chime's real swing angle can drive generative CC modulation • Up to 16 chimes across up to 16 channels, endless generative variety MAKE IT YOURS • Pick from a set of beautifully designed visual themes • Switch between Free timing and a quantized grid • New Wind reseeds the sequence, keeping every setting the same • Randomize rolls a brand-new layout, tuning, and wind in one tap BUILT FOR AUV3 HOSTS • Runs as a full AUv3 MIDI Generator in any compatible host • Automate every wind and tuning parameter from the host • MIDI timing is sample-accurate, synced to the host's own tempo • Presets sync over iCloud across devices, the app, and AUv3 Play standalone with a built-in sampler for instant sound, or load Wind Chimes as a silent-audio AUv3 MIDI Generator and route it into any instrument you like.
