Current music tools fall short in handling rhythm as a structured, dynamic element of musical creation and interaction. CoordN8’s patent-pending technology, invented by Jay Hardesty, Jason Wilber, and Dražen Bošnjak, fills this gap with an innovative, real-time rhythm intelligence framework.
At the heart of CoordN8’s innovation are rhythmic building blocks—concise, manipulable models that encode the interplay of anticipation and repetition in music.
Like file compression for musical content: rhythms are abstracted into hierarchical, nested patterns, then uncompressed back into individual notes during playback. This transformative capability positions rhythm as a dynamic, user-driven creative driver. Enabling users to intuitively shape rhythm in a malleable and expressive form, shifting focus from static data to dynamic creativity.
CoordN8’s technology taps into the brain’s natural affinity for pattern recognition, fostering deeper cognitive engagement. When compared with solutions that require AI models, CoordN8 sets a new standard by requiring no pre-trained models or large datasets to operate. Instead, it can work directly with musical inputs selected and controlled in real-time by the user.
Designed to integrate with DAWs, audio plugins, MIDI hardware, and mobile applications, CoordN8 delivers intuitive and adaptive rhythm tools, empowering music technology companies to deliver advanced, future-ready rhythm capabilities to their users.
