Sylva is one of MIDI Maker’s experimental palettes — the kit under it is grain and a hollow drum on the cell heads, no clock. Everything is plucked, and the bar is carved into additive cells of 3+3+2, 3+2+3 and 2+3+3 sixteenths, so the attacks of gut and wood are most of the percussion.
What to listen for: Plucked strings and wood counting in uneven groups of three and two, every part leaning on the same lopsided pulse.
Sylva is included with the Pro and Studio plans; the free plan covers five genres. See pricing.
How the engine writes sylva
Two melody lines interlock like two players sharing one pattern — one states the cell heads, the other lives in the displaced interiors — over a plucked comping voice, a soft drone floor and a low string walking the same skeleton. The harmony changes on the meter’s own joints: the progression pool carries 3-and-2-beat rows.
From a roll to your DAW
A roll defaults to 104 BPM (every preset and tempo is editable before and after generating) and plays back in the browser through the studio's own synths. When you like a take, export it as whole-track or per-instrument MIDI, or as WAV/MP3 audio — the drum part uses General MIDI numbering, so it lands correctly on any drum plugin. There are step-by-step import guides for Ableton Live, FL Studio and Logic Pro.
