MusiKraken on Windows Pc

MusiKraken is an Experimental MIDI Controller Construction Kit.

Make music using your hands, face, voice or by rotating the device! Control virtual instruments in your DAW on your computer, or send MIDI to other apps on your device.

Choose from several types of modules in the editor and connect the ports to create your own MIDI controller setup. Use device sensors like Touch, Accelerometer, Microphone and Camera (face tracking via MLKit) to generate MIDI signals. Route the MIDI signals through effect modules to split chords into separate notes, transpose them and send them to separate channels to control multiple virtual instruments simultaneously.

MusiKraken supports sending and receiving MIDI data over Wi-Fi or via Android MIDI (via USB cable or inter-app)

Important: Please note that some of the modules only work on devices with specific hardware: MLKit Face Tracking needs a front facing camera and might be too slow on older devices. And there is no hand tracking module for Android yet.

Input Modules:
-Keyboard: Press the keys to generate notes. Slide your finger across the keys to generate values that can be converted to MIDI events, so that you can control multiple aspects of your virtual instrument directly from the keyboard. The keyboard can also generate aftertouch events or highlight keys belonging to a specific scale.

-Chord Pad: Select one of many scales and the Chord Pad will create one button per chord in the current octave. The top row of buttons will play the chord in its root position, while the buttons below play its inversions, making it possible to experiment with various combinations.

-MLKit Face Tracking: If your device supports MLKit, you can use parameters from MLKit Face Tracking to generate MIDI signals! Generate notes or control parameters using your mouth, eyes or by moving your head.

-Accelerometer: Generate MIDI control values or notes by rotating your device.

-Microphone: This module uses your microphone and generates MIDI events from the detected pitch and volume.

-MIDI Input: Connect with an external input device and route its MIDI signal through the other modules.

Output Modules:
-MIDI Output: Send MIDI events to any device accessible via Android MIDI. This can for example be used to send the MIDI signal via USB cable.

-Snarp Network MIDI: Send MIDI data to other devices connected to your WiFi using the RTP-MIDI protocol.

-SimpleSynth: Generate simple synthesizer sounds directly on the device!

Effects:
-Chord Splitter: Splits incoming chords into separate notes and sends these to separate channels. This allows you to play multiple (legato-) instruments simultaneously!

-Channel Switcher: Change the MIDI channel of events.

-Value to MIDI Converter: To convert numerical values (green ports) to MIDI events (orange ports), it needs a converter. Converters can convert incoming numbers to Control Change events (modulation, volume, breath control...), Channel Pressure or Pitch Bend events. Or they can be used to generate notes.

-MIDI Transposer: Transpose MIDI notes up or down.
