Noatikl (pronounced “noh – tickle”) is a 16 track MIDI generating powerhouse with 120+ parameters & many included generative music templates and incorporates the Noatikl (MIDI) Music Engine (NME).
Noatikl creates musical information in the form of MIDI notes and can generate and send MIDI controller information to control settings of synths, FX units and samplers. It can also generate its own sounds via the integrated Partikl Sound Engine (PSE), a powerful sound source comprising a modular synth with Soundfont (SF2)/DLS support + live FX.
Noatikl is the evolution of the SSEYO Koan Generative Music System used in the 90s by Brian Eno et al, and it is still evolving today. It is created by Tim Cole and Pete Cole, creators of the 2001 BAFTA-award winning SSEYO Koan Interactive Audio Platform, the 2005 BAFTA-award winning SSEYO miniMIXA. We bring to it the 25+ years of experience we have of developing generative music engines and it is much more powerful and versatile than Koan ever was.
