GENERATIVE A.I. PLUGIN FOR FUNKY IDEAS

Funkastic is an A.I. model trained with funky grooves. It's mainly designed to generate Clavi parts, but also works for electric pianos, organs, or even bass lines.

It's built to inspire creativity and help you instantly discover new grooves that can lead to a new song, or simply to jam over.

Unlike "auto-composer" tools or A.I. systems that attempt to create finished tracks, Funkastic behaves more like a funk session player: it throws musical ideas at you — short, expressive one-bar grooves — and you take it from there. The goal is simple: help you spark a new song, kickstart a groove, or just have fun jamming.

PICK THE GENERATION DETAILS

Funkastic lets you be very specific about the generation details, allowing you to choose exactly how you want each groove to be created.

Style: Creative, Flat 5th, Major 7 or Pentatonic.
Mode: Minor, Major, Dominant.
Root note: C to B chromatic.
Feel: Straight, Swing.
Notes amount: Dense, Middle, Sparse.
Velocity Strength: High, Middle, or Low.

GENERATE OR VARIATE

Use the Generate button to get a new generation based on the parameters you picked. Once you find something you like, you can click on Variate to create variations for the same rhythm structure (good for consecutive bars to avoid repetition).

Generated MIDI is one bar length, and can be dropped to any DAW. If you use the VST version of Funkastic, you can also choose to sync it to DAW to preview grooves matching DAW tempo and Play/Stop commands.

WHO IS FUNKASTIC FOR?

PRODUCERS

Funkastic provides ready-to-use clavi/EP funk grooves that simplify the creation of rhythmic ideas. It eliminates the need to program patterns manually and allows quick exploration of variations.

MUSICIANS

Built from recordings of funk and soul keyboardists, Funkastic can supply material for practice, drafting parts, or testing musical ideas within these styles.

NON-PLAYERS

For users who enjoy funk but do not play keyboards, Funkastic offers a straightforward way to generate clavi-style grooves with consistent timing and feel.

A MODEL TRAINED WITH CURATED PERFORMANCES

Funkastic was trained on performances by experienced clavi players with deep funk and soul backgrounds. We recorded hours of material performed by our team, with additional contributions from other musicians. After training the model, we requested extensive feedback from the performers to evaluate the accuracy, feel, and authenticity of its output.

The result is a model capable of generating funky grooves that are not only authentic, but also very creative and interesting. Many of the grooves are already being used in songs by our first beta testers.

LOCAL & NO SUBSCRIPTION [Pay once, use forever]

Funkastic runs entirely on your computer - no cloud connection required. It's a standalone app and VST/AU plugin that works offline, anytime, anywhere.

No monthly fees, no subscriptions. Buy it once and it's yours forever. Keep making funky grooves without worrying about recurring payments.

HONEST AND SPECIALIZED

We've discovered that creating a studio-quality A.I. product depends on feeding it with truly high-quality datasets. We built Funkastic with curated recordings from experienced funk and soul keyboardists, creating a model capable of learning the subtleties of the great key players: the ghost notes, the timing, the feel.

A general-purpose A.I. model cannot achieve the level of detail required for something as specific as a funk groove. We chose to specialize - and the result is something truly usable and inspiring for your productions. This specialized model lets you ask for very specific things, like playing in Dominant mode with a pentatonic scale.
