Description

This Max For Live device uses Javascript to implement a MIDI note echo effect where the echoes follow the pattern of the Fibonacci Sequence.

This device receives MIDI notes, and transmits one or more MIDI notes as a result. When it is sending more than the original note (i.e. "Iterations" set to a value greater than 1) the time delay between the notes uses Fibonacci number multiples of the "Time Base" value. In two dimensions, the Fibonacci sequence can be used to plot spiral shapes that resemble those found in nature. In one-dimensional sound space, the echoes are spaced further and further apart, perhaps in a way that is pleasing to our natural ears and brains.

The controls are on top, with a visualization below, showing relative time between echoes (horizontal position of circles, starting on the left), relative velocity (size of circle), and pitch (indicated by color).
