Instantly and effortlessly rearrange blocks of notes in a MIDI Clip. Absolutely incredible for resequencing your favorite breaks (mine’s Apache, mainly because of A Made Up Sound, which is just a perfect track), but there are so many other possibilities too.
Phrase Shuffler Pro 2 This device is a collaboration with fellow Max Certified Trainer Ned Rush. Ned is a prolific maker of YouTube videos about electronic music making in Ableton Live and Max. One of the things that Ned does incredibly well in Live is chop up breaks using Live’s audio-to-MIDI feature. To get a sense for what I’m talking about, check out his A to Z of Classic Breaks series. So Ned sent me a note with the idea of making a device that would automate the resequencing of the break slices, and explained one very important detail: jungle producers very often slice breaks into groups of 3 eighth notes, and then reshuffle the order of those slices. So we made a device called Phrase Shuffler that let you create these groupings of notes and then randomize the order, and holy moly, it works amazingly well. The 3 eighth notes thing is absolutely crucial – it just simply grooves much harder when you preserve the groups of 3.
Phrase Shuffler was free and pretty rough and prototype-y. The idea was that we’d get that one out, then think a little bit harder about a more fully-featured version. And that’s what Phrase Shuffler Pro is.
