Description

1.1 Added UI scaling

DropTool is a midi generator based on my sequencer DropSeq. If you've used the sequencer it works in the same way but as a miditool.

In a popout window there are 8 lanes, each lane has a column of 8 dots when the dot "hits" the bottom a note is created.

The controls are top to bottom-

Note created with an octave switch.

The Dots, clicking an empty dot will place the start point and clicking a filled dot will turn that column off.

R- reverses the pattern.

S1- skips the first note created, this can be useful to avoid "Chords" on the first note in a clip.

Sync- sets the "rate" of the lane and note duration to be either in note divisions or free.

The lanes rate.

The notes length.

Velocity range

Q-quantize

L-legato

Rotate the pattern.

Honestly I kinda think this works better as a sequencer than a miditool but I got the idea stuck in my head and had to make it haha.
