Description

randomRHYTHM is a recreation of a hardware module of the same name, without Swing, and with slightly expanded controls.

There are two rhythm sections, A and B. The two sections contain four channels each. Each channel contains a slider that sets the probability that the note will be triggered and a subdivision amount.

Channels 2, 3, and 4, on both rhythm sections can be independently delayed by a specified subdivision amount.

DICE MODE

Turn on Dice mode for each section and press the Roll button for a predefined set of random numbers that each channel will independently cycle through at the pace of the selected subdivision. The number of random numbers generated for each channel depends on the number of beats per measure. If you're in 4/4, then 4 random numbers will be generated for each channel. If you're in 11/4, 11 random numbers are generated for each channel, etc.

    Excellent work! Love it - thanks for sharing with us, will get plenty of use - great job

    still digging this device! One thing I noticed - the state saving is partially functional but not 100%. When saving the device in a project, then re-opening, all of the notes reset to C-1

    This is not functioning for me. Should be across the board C3 to start. The dice/roll doesn't function at all. It pauses intermittently. And while manually adjusting pitch, the audio becomes a cpu tornado of static and pops. On Live 10 Suite, Catalina OS.

    @FreddyFingaz -
    Yeah I haven't quite figured out state saving yet but if it's possible I'll figure it out! I'd recommend re downloading it if you haven't - I've updated it quite a few times since yesterday/this morning.
    @Irishmos - I built the device with The most recent version of Ableton 11 Suite with the most recent version of M4L, so there may be some cross compat issues unfortunately. I don't have the crackling and popping issue when manually adjusting the note value. If you could upload a video to show me (youtube) that would help. I don't own a copy of Live 10 anymore otherwise I'd load the device to troubleshoot.

    @FreddyFingaz - I have added the ability to save the configured MIDI notes!
