Polymeter 0.0.05 is available for download and adds many new
features, including velocity editing and controller tracks. Tracks now
have a Type drop list, which can be set to note, controller, patch
change, aftertouch (key or channel), or pitch bend.
The velocities pane lets you edit step values of any type, not just
note velocities. It shows one bar per note, or one bar per step for
track types other than note. Just left-click on a bar to change its
height, or left-click and drag to edit multiple bars in a row. The bars
can be fit to lines, triangle waves, and sine waves, using combinations
of the Ctrl, Shift, and Alt keys while dragging the cursor. And you can
edit multiple tracks at once of course.
New editing commands were also added: a Reverse command that reverses
the order of selected tracks or steps, and a Rotate command that
rotates selected tracks or steps left or right.
Polymeter is a free, open source MIDI sequencer for music that's in multiple prime meters (1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, etc.) simultaneously. Each track has its own loop length, and when the lengths differ, the tracks "slip" (or shift phase) relative to each other. I post development notes about it here.
