| Description: | SOLFA – A Generative MIDI Sequencer for Minimal and Experimental Music Inspired by Arvo Pärt, Designed for Creative Exploration SOLFA is a generative MIDI sequencer for Ableton Max for Live, built for electronic music producers, experimental composers, ambient sound designers, and those interested in algorithmic composition. Inspired by the works of Arvo Pärt, this tool allows you to create evolving, hypnotic patterns that seamlessly blend tonal minimalism with rhythmic complexity. Minimal Pitch, Infinite Possibilities At the core of SOLFA is a simple seven-note sequence. These notes are randomized across octaves, generating organic melodic shifts. This structured yet fluid approach results in endlessly varying musical textures that maintain a coherent harmonic identity. Independent Rhythmic Structures SOLFA employs isorhythmic principles, where the pitch sequence operates independently from the rhythm pattern. This allows for intricate, evolving interactions between melody and rhythm, giving rise to unexpected yet deeply musical results. Ideal for Generative and Experimental Music Whether you're composing ambient soundscapes, intricate polyrhythmic pieces, or avant-garde electronic music, SOLFA provides a unique method for crafting evolving compositions with minimal input. By embracing randomness within defined constraints, it encourages exploration while maintaining musical cohesion. Unlock New Creative Dimensions Transform simple ideas into dynamic, evolving sequences with SOLFA. Experiment with chance, structure, and unpredictability to discover new musical possibilities. Now available for Max for Live. ver.2.0 ... Added random mode.

This wasn't the right thing for $24.99. I made something with it after buying it but it's not one of my favorite devices.

Also... I have a glitch report. Some of the display didn't show text. Also I'm not sure if the device worked right because it didn't do the same sound on the Youtube video when I tried to replicate the settings. Maybe an update will fix the device.
