Psycle started out as a creation of the late Juan Antonio Arguelles (Arguru), coding the program in May 2000 until version 1.0, which he then released as
Public Domain . Its first focus was on machines: each pattern was linked to a machine, and the patterns were then arranged in the sequencer. After the first few alpha versions, Arguru changed Psycle into a more classical-style tracker, only keeping the Buzz-influenced Machine View. Each song position defined in the sequencer was linked to one pattern used to enter notes and data for all machines at the same time. This is how it has remained for all subsequent releases. The Psycledelics community took the source code from the public domain version and forked development to Open Source. Psycle has matured and is currently at version 1.8.5. Since the program supports the VST 2.0 standard, all stages of production can be accomplished - from mixing to mastering.Features
