01Overview

Beyond 4/4 Expansion is built for producers who want rhythms that step outside standard four-on-the-floor patterns. It is an expansion pack for MOVEMENT, the rhythm FX engine from Output, and it contains 100 presets designed to run inside that plugin. The presets are meant to add polyrhythmic character to a track, either subtly or more aggressively. Because the pack depends on MOVEMENT, it works as an add-on rather than a standalone instrument.

Odd Meters and Polyrhythmic Character in MOVEMENT

The pack focuses on meters beyond 4/4. Output describes presets in 3/4, 7/8, 11/8 and 5/4, along with other time signatures, giving you a way to bring uneven groupings into a loop or full arrangement.

The presets can be applied to any track, so they are not limited to a single genre or instrument. You can use the subtle settings to add slight unpredictability to a steady beat, or the more intense settings when you want the rhythm to be the main focus of a section.

Who Beyond 4/4 Expansion Is For

This pack suits producers who already work with MOVEMENT and want a ready-made collection of rhythmic starting points. With 100 presets, it offers a broad set of options without requiring you to build each polyrhythm from scratch.

It is most useful when you are looking for rhythmic variation in electronic productions, or when you want to test how a non-4/4 feel changes the energy of a part. Since the pack requires MOVEMENT to run, it is not a fit for users who do not already own or plan to install that plugin.
