This device grew out of a desire that I had for Ableton’s native Seed MIDI Tool. Seed generates a random cloud of notes, which is a useful way to get an idea started. The problem (in my opinion) is that the distribution of these notes in time can be very uneven. There might be a lot of notes at the beginning of the clip, and nothing at the end. So, I made Even Seed to solve this problem. It does so by first slicing the clip into segments, then generating notes within each of the segments. This ensures that the notes are more evenly distributed.
Even Seed also allows you to generate chords by forcing the notes that line up along the time axis. You can also control the pitches and velocities more finely by using a bank of sliders that acts as a probability distribution. Like all of my MIDI Generators, Even Seed respects the MIDI Clip’s scale, so the generated notes will always be in key.
V1.0.0 – Initial Release – November 2024
To install MIDI Tools, first double-click to decompress the ZIP archive it arrived in. !
In Live’s Browser, navigate to the User Library in Places
Then find the MIDI Tools folder located there. If you don’t see a folder called MIDI Tools in your User Library, simply create it yourself.
We’d advice adding two subfolders for Generators and Transformers for neatness.
Finally, drag our Generators to the Generators subfolder and our Transformers to the Transformers subfolder
Live should automatically detect them and within the next few minutes, they should appear in the dropdown chooser of Live’s Generators or Transformers in the corresponding tab of any MIDI Clip’s Note Editor.
PLEASE NOTE: Once installed MIDI Tools, since they are not Max MIDI Effects, cannot be dragged and dropped onto MIDI tracks: they can only be loaded by the Generator and Transformer tabs of the MIDI clip editor.
