Fsynthz Puncho Grooove

Puncho Grooove is designed to 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.
