GlitchDS is a homebrew Cellular Automaton music sequencer for the Nintendo DS. It is for creating IDM and Glitch style loops. R4DS is required for using this application.

Features

  • Customizable Cellular Automaton sequencer.
  • Create your own “trigger points”.
  • Load in your own sounds.
  • Save and load your work.
  • BPM settings, or “strum mode” for controlling tempo.
  • Up to 6 sounds can be loaded at once.
  • Each sound has its own 32 step frequency modulation sequencer.
  • Global Distortion setting.

User guide

glitchDS is organized into different pages.

  • Sequencer Control - It has a 32 step sequencer based on the Game of Life. After 32 mutations, the sequence starts over.
  • Trigger Config - How does the sequencer know when to play a sound? Triggers! It specifies what should happen when a node on the sequencer graph changes from 0 (black) to 1 (white).
