Description

This very simple device is meant to be a performance tool, designed to simplify midi sequences, and slowly build their final complexity.

It randomly chooses notes that will play, according to a probability factor.

I use it most for melodies after the mono sequencer, but it should do the job with beats too. At 0%, your instruments will remain silent. At 100%, everybody comes to play !

I just fixed a bug concerning the note off messages that sometimes wouldn't be sent, annoying with longer synths...

    Nice work!
    Funny, I am using the same technique in some of my music.
    Your device made me look into my own patch and I found some bugs in both mine and yours.
    I am posting the revised device, and I have also have added a repetition filter.

    GREAT device!!! Would be great if program messages were allowed to pass through. I'd love to use it in my live set.
