HATEFISh RhyGenerator One 1.1.0 update

HoRNet HATEFISh RhyGenerator One Update – Version 1.1.0 Released

We are thrilled to announce the release of the latest update to HATEFISh RhyGenerator One, HoRNet’s free Euclidean step sequencer plugin. The new version 1.1.0 brings several enhancements and fixes that significantly improve the plugin’s performance, compatibility, and overall user experience. This version is especially beneficial for users working with modern Apple M1 chips and those looking for a smoother, more responsive interface.

What Is HATEFISh RhyGenerator One?

RhyGenerator One is a simplified version of the original RhyGenerator, a unique step sequencer based on the principles of Euclidean rhythms. It was developed in collaboration with electronic music artist HATEFISh and is designed to make the creation of complex, dynamic rhythmic patterns as easy and intuitive as possible. The core idea behind Euclidean rhythms is to evenly distribute a given number of beats across a set number of steps. This concept allows you to generate intricate rhythmic patterns that have been used in a variety of musical traditions, particularly electronic and experimental music.

Euclidean rhythms are based on an algorithm that, when applied to two numbers, results in a pattern where beats are spaced as evenly as possible across the sequence. This method was first formalized by Godfried Toussaint in 2004 and has since become an essential tool in music production, especially in genres where complex, evolving rhythms are central. In fact, many of the rhythms in world music, from African to Balkan, are built on this principle. The plugin allows you to tap into this algorithm and create beats that feel both natural and mathematically precise.

How Does RhyGenerator One Work?

At its core, RhyGenerator One generates rhythmic sequences based on the Euclidean algorithm, giving you the ability to define a pattern of beats across up to 32 steps. Each step represents a potential position for a beat, and you can freely control the number of steps, number of beats, velocity, and note length. These parameters are independent, which means you have complete control over the dynamics of your rhythm.

For example, you can create a rhythm where beats occur at evenly spaced intervals, such as a 4-on-the-floor pattern, or you can shift the beats across the sequence to create syncopated rhythms or interesting off-beats. RhyGenerator One allows you to shift the sequence by any number of steps, which is great for introducing upbeats or creating subtle variations that keep your rhythm evolving. This capability makes it an essential tool for producing more organic-sounding beats.

One of the key strengths of RhyGenerator One is its ability to automate every parameter of the sequencer. This means you can create dynamic variations in your rhythm without having to manually adjust each step. For instance, you can automate the velocity of the beats to create a more humanized feel or change the note length over time to evolve the rhythm. These dynamic changes allow you to build more engaging and unpredictable patterns, which is perfect for electronic music genres or any genre that benefits from evolving beats.

The plugin provides flexibility with its ability to use multiple rhythmic patterns in conjunction with one another. You can link multiple instances of the plugin together, allowing for the creation of multi-layered rhythms that can complement each other or build on top of one another. This feature makes RhyGenerator One highly adaptable to different musical styles, whether you are working on trap beats, house music, or even more experimental projects.

What’s New in Version 1.1.0?

The update to version 1.1.0 brings several important enhancements that address performance issues and improve the plugin’s overall functionality:

1. Full Support for Apple M1 Chips: With the growing number of users adopting Apple’s M1 chip in their devices, HoRNet has ensured that RhyGenerator One runs smoothly on these systems. The new update fully supports the Apple Silicon architecture, ensuring the plugin takes full advantage of the performance and efficiency improvements offered by the M1 chips. Whether you are working on a MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, or iMac, RhyGenerator One will now operate seamlessly without any compatibility issues.

2. Removal of 32-bit Support: In line with industry trends and the growing reliance on 64-bit environments, RhyGenerator One no longer supports 32-bit systems. This change allows the plugin to be more efficient and optimized for modern systems, ensuring a better user experience. As the majority of DAWs and systems now operate in 64-bit, this update helps the plugin stay relevant and compatible with the latest technologies.

3. Hardware Acceleration for Smoother UI: One of the standout features of this update is the introduction of hardware acceleration for the plugin’s user interface. This means that the UI now runs much more smoothly, with faster rendering and better overall responsiveness. This is especially noticeable when working with more complex rhythms or when using multiple instances of the plugin. The enhanced UI performance provides a much more fluid and enjoyable experience while working with RhyGenerator One, allowing you to focus on your creative process without interruptions.

4. Fixed Interface Issues on macOS: Several users had reported issues with the interface on the latest versions of macOS, especially with visual glitches and unresponsiveness. The 1.1.0 update addresses these issues, ensuring that the plugin operates seamlessly on macOS Big Sur and newer versions. The UI issues that plagued previous versions have been resolved, providing a more stable and enjoyable experience for Mac users.
