Description

HALFASS:

Harmonic Arranger Looper For Applied Shephard Scales!

A midi note generator that helps create endless rising custom sequences from the 12-tone scales of your choosing. Make those tones rise endlessly, but also melodically.

Shepard tones are a well known audio illusion!

Note: Your MIDI instrument must have velocity to make use of volume "fade ins" and "fade outs" to assist in the illusion. Not all settings will achieve the desired illusion, but it is still a fun tool to play with.
