MIDI Tool Generators

Key features

• XY pattern field: explore an endless pool of possible MIDI patterns via a simple XY field, from simple and sparse at bottom left to busiest and most complex at upper right
• Vertical axis: controls the variety of note pitches and velocities explored within the ranges you set
• Horizontal axis: controls pattern density and the variety of note lengths set by the sliders at bottom
• Invertible ranges: horizontal note length and vertical velocity ranges can be inverted

Key features

• Explore different quantization restrictions
• Advanced mode lets you set minimum and maximum limits on each pitch, velocity, or length decay
• Choose a behaviour when limits are reached: Clip at the obtained limit value, Wrap back to the upper limit, or Fold to reflect back in the opposite direction

Key features

• Unquantised rhythms: set a destination note pitch, velocity and an arbitrary number of beats within a selected timespan
• Grid quantisation: enable note editor grid quantisation for more conventional patterns
• Tuplet mode: quantise notes to any user-specified division of the current time selection
• Nudge control: shift the focus of the pattern forward or backward in time

Key features

• Converts ASCII values of typed or pasted text to generate unique MIDI patterns
• Remaps ASCII values to a range of pitch, velocity, length, or probability values
• Use ASCII values to control the rhythmic rate of generated notes
• Gate notes above or below a specified ASCII value threshold

Key features

• Geometric melodies: plot points on a grid and scale them between a variety of pitches, velocities, lengths or probabilities
• Randomise from scratch: generate new patterns, with an optional density control to reduce how many grid points are filled
• Freehand entry: clear the pattern, or unlock the grid to enter notes freehand
• Grid intervals and division: set the number of vertical grid intervals with the lock on, and multiply the notes generated per interval

What’s inside

• Generates patterns based on up to six available note choices which never overlap to produce linear drums or unique melodies at the current grid count
• Each note line gets a pitch, velocity, length, and probability, along with a mute key
• Velocity, deviation, length, and chance of all steps can be set globally
• In the default Rest mode, muted lines result in rest gaps in the pattern

Key features

• Automatically detects and adopts your MIDI clip length, selection, and quantization settings
• Each voice can be expressed through a particular rhythm, generating on, or avoiding, specific beats using the count settings
• Density determines how talkative each voice can be
• Central weight dial controls which voice dominates, and if so, by how much

Key features

• Clip-relative draw field for inputting melodic patterns over any clip length
• Scale-aware pitch input within a specified note range
• Automatically detects the current note grid interval and length, giving one point per available interval
• Optional count masking to impose more interesting rhythmic patterns on the drawn output

Key features

• Create winding melodies that traverse a slope of pitches over a given distance in current grid or per-note intervals
• Notes are generated within the current scale and key, and within your specified range
• Note tie, velocity, and pattern density add additional variation
• Distance, slope, and note base can be randomised at each pivot point to generate less predictable patterns

Key features

• Seven unique randomisation algorithms for melody and chord generation
• Scale aware, outputs notes in Live’s current Scale and Key
• Density control to govern the busy-ness of the generated pattern
• Euclidean rhythm options to constrain output to specific rhythmic intervals

Key features

• Combine potent Euclidean programming with fully polyrhythmic and polymetric pulse rates to generate intricate rhythms
• Count masking, Euclidean direction control, and rhythmic inversion instantly power new patterns
• Use velocity, accent, deviation, chance, and note length to inject even more life into any rhythm
• Engage optional scale awareness for melodic use
