Finn Mitchell-Anyon has released Droplets, a physics-based sequencer, available for $20.00.

The plugin simulates droplets falling at musical intervals, bouncing off of bars to trigger notes and generate intricate musical patterns.

The user is able to place, arrange and modify ‘bars’ and ‘drippers’ in a variety of ways. The interval at which a dripper emits droplets can be adjusted by turning its handle. The pitch of a bar can be controlled by adjusting its length. By making even small adjustments, entirely new musical patterns will arise.

Control how tightly notes are quantized to the musical grid using the ‘quantize’ parameter. Notes can be quantized either to the nearest 16th or 12th note by changing the ‘division’ setting.

Changing the tempo (either inside the standalone application or in your DAW) causes the whole physics simulation to speed up or slow down, meaning that the musical pattern will stay constant at any tempo.

You can determine what pitches bars may be tuned to with the scale wheel. Choose from one of the many premade scale presets, or create your own scale by selecting the root note and choosing the scale degrees.

urn up the ‘wind’ setting and droplets will start being blown in random directions, leading to a constantly evolving pattern.

Change the strength and direction of gravity to discover new patterns within the same arrangement.

Introduce random variation by setting the chance that a dripper will emit a droplet each cycle.

Easily save and share preset files containing both the layout and parameter settings.

Droplets features an in-built synth engine, capable of FM, sampling, additive and subtractive synthesis, and featuring multiple effects and modulation settings, allowing you to design unique sounds entirely inside the program. Save synth presets to easily reuse a sound with a new layout.

Droplets can be used as a MIDI generator to trigger your favourite virtual instrument or external synthesizer.

Most parameters in Droplets can be controlled using MIDI CC. Simply right click on a parameter, select “Learn MIDI,” and move a knob/slider on your MIDI controller to create a new mapping.

Droplets is available to PC and Mac users (VST3, AU and standalone).
