Description
TR2gen_mr is a 2 step sequencer. Just two steps, each one bar long, and all it does is generate 2 chords (separated by a fixed pitch interval) made up of major or minor triads, so producing three sustained notes in each bar. You can set the pitch of each chord, if it is major or minor, if you want fixed or random inversions to be applied to the three notes, and how long the notes last. Simple - but a great idea generator!
This article links to some of the background theory (two excellent YouTube videos):

There is more information on basic arrangements for instrumenting the output, plus another free utility, in my blog:
