Description

a generative midi effect featuring note probability, random octave, random velocity (+-), random midi note farter, humanize, note scale (major, minor, japanese, etc etc), wacky pitchbend/cc lfo. 'the riddler' approved.

the flow: midi in (combines with built in midi note generator) --> note prob -- > rand velo/humanize --> rnd octave --> note scale --> out. of course the pbend/cc smooth random lfo is separate from all that.

tip: combine the random note generator with a scale (major, minor)

this is an old one i finally finished up. something i use all the time when creating generative music. it started as a project to just build a simple midi note probability gate (as i wasn't finding any great free options here that supported polyphony properly) but then mutated from there... i tried to fit a lot of firepower under one tiny roof. hopefully you find it useful.

the scale stuff used is from the 'scale master' device by modul8tor: http://www.xfade.com/max/ScaleMaster

known issue: sometimes the humanize can causes notes to stick if you are spamming notes rapidly through it.

also, not sure what happened when the gif converter spat out the cover image, but its magically befitting of the random nature of this device

v1.2 - cleaning up the note generator. added more time amount to the note generation rate for slower vibe. added info hints to gui elements. improved the scale selection section. also removing the parts from the scale patch that were throwing errors in max.

v1.3 - disabling midi reactive animations as that is maybe causing cpu spike on some computers
