What can this MCP do for music production?

It calculates precise timing, sync points, and attack timestamps for complex rhythms, making it useful for programming sequencers or composing polyrhythms.

Which AI clients can use this MCP?

You can use this MCP with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

How precise are the timestamps?

The capability provides timing data down to the millisecond level.

Do I need to host the MCP myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start using the capabilities.

Can it handle complex polyrhythms?

Yes, it is specifically designed to handle multi-layered rhythmic patterns and find their sync points.

How do I find when my rhythms will align?

Use the find_sync_point capability by providing an array of rhythm counts (e.g., [3, 4] for a 3:4 polyrhythm). It will return the alignment pulse and cycle duration.

Can I get precise timestamps for notes in milliseconds?

Yes, the get_layer_attacks capability calculates the exact millisecond timestamp for every attack in each layer based on your provided BPM and number of measures.

What is the minimum subdivision grid?

You can use get_grid_resolution to find the smallest rhythmic unit (in ms) and the number of ticks per beat required to represent all attacks perfectly.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Real work

What teams actually run

Drum Programming

Calculate the exact timing for polyrhythmic drum patterns to ensure they hit correctly in a DAW.

Generative Music Coding

Use the subdivision data to write code that triggers notes at mathematically perfect intervals.

Rhythmic Analysis

Determine the complexity and sync points of existing musical patterns.

Sequencer Setup

One connector, every AI

Polyrhythm Calculator works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Polyrhythm Calculator to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Polyrhythm Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Polyrhythm Calculator. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.
