I love using this to create harmonic drones to establish timbral atmospheres in my stuff. Really a super powerful device.

Cheeky wee device indeed, set the scales around their relatives for different scale layers although relative harmonies etc... Nice one

I got the pro version and I’m really excited about the possibilities especially with the routing to multiple tracks/instruments option. This was a great explanatory video - I discovered a couple of options that I had either missed or forgotten. I truly appreciate your videos 👍👍👍

great video bro. I did everything like u did but it doesnt show in Plugins. I saw my plugin has no .dll at end just .amxd do you know why maybe it doesnt appear? i added a extra folder in ableton with plugins and there its working.

Instead of creating melodies, would it also be possible to connect the sequener to a filter and create filter movement patterns?

@HoTeNaTV928 11 ай бұрын

just create another midi Channel and route the euclidean Midi Channel Signals with "midi to" to that new Midi channel and turn the Arming (Record-Enabling) button to red, now you see the signals coming in. And now you can push record and you get the signals on a clip or session.

I've been playing around with it and it's really fun, I just wish it was a bit more compatible with drum racks because I can't just throw the 808 kit on it and begin experimenting because it starts on C3 and not C1 and then I have to go in and tweak which drum it hits and it's all a bit of a pain.

you can use the pitch device to transpose the midi C3 to C1 with -24 value in the knob :)

pitty that the amount of melodysteps is bound to the amount of events. it would be cool to have like a five step melody over 3 events. even more evolving results.

Please can you make examples with mainstream music ( major lazer / Dj snake….) just to see how competitive it is with a plugin like scaler (even in it’s not the same I know). In theory it seems to be a good concept but it stresses me out when I hear nonsense notes playing with so much effort under the program. So please make a no talking video straight to the point by recreating some “basic”, simple and known melodies or chords as examples so I can really see the utility of it and integrate it in my workflow without being a gadget that I’ll use once in a time. Thanks

Man You gotta put in some work yourself. This thing is so powerful and super useful for coming up with unique and fresh sounding melodies or even percussion. The guy literally explains how it works and there are numerous other videos on the device too.
