Puncho Groove by Fsynthz.
Fsynthz has released Puncho Groove, a freeware MIDI loop generator in VST plugin format for Windows.
Puncho Grooove is a VSTi that can convert anything the user plays into a groove that subsequently follows the player in real-time. It can be used as a backing rhythm (e.g. a drum box).
Punch Groove uses continuous punch-in MIDI recording and looping together with “timbre rambling”. Pitch and Modulation controllers can alter the groove. Events can be quantized for the trance/dance domain.
Controller keyboard can transpose the current groove, loop and chords can be triggered with one finger, and patterned (and synced) pitch-bend and vibrato can be added to a melody. Puncho Groove can also be used as a MIDI processor to drive another synth.
Puncho Groove is available for free download via Fsynthz website.
