Five12 has announced that Version 1.1 of Numerology Level 1 is now
available.
Numerology 1.1 includes fifteen major new features and several smaller
enhancements and fixes. Prominent among the new features are Gate
Division for sequencing complex rhythm patterns, a MIDI Learn mode for
remote control via MIDI CC, and new modules for processing control
signals.
Numerology is a modular MIDI sequencer for Mac OS X that is oriented
for live performance and experimentation. It uses sequencing
techniques first established by analog sequencers in the 1970's,
implemented within a virtual studio environment built from the ground
up for improvisation and experimentation. Whether you are a new to
music making or an experienced performer, Numerology offers a unique
and powerful environment for extending your compositional boundaries.
Numerology Level 1 is written for Mac OS X, version 10.2. A free demo is
available for download, as well as demo tracks showing live performance features. The full version can be purchased online for $50.
