Description

Algae is a 4-oscillator polyphonic synth that allows the user to create complex polyphonic textures by defining an algorithm for each voice that controls various aspects of pitch and rhythm.

**Live's transport must be running to get sound from Algae**

MIDI "mountain" code from Katsuhiro Chiba's "Sev."

Rest probability algorithm from the M4L MIDI effect "Max PolyBeat."

    turn on the transport.

    Yeah, Algae's engine is linked to Live's transport so it must be running to get sound. I'll work on getting some better documentation and annotations in the gui for the help window.
