Yeah, exactly.

I've been trying to do it with the generator, but the problem is the note gets replaced by a new sequence, whereas with a transformation tool, the pitch of the note would remain intact and only the slicing would be applied.

Do you think you could make a transformation version of this to slice notes? All the slicing tools available are quite bad at applying irregular and complex rhythms. This tool functioning as a MIDI transformer would nail that task.

I meant this is not a MIDI generator, it's a MIDI effect.

This is not a MIDI generator, it's a MIDI instrument.

This is not a MIDI transformation tool, it's a MIDI effect.

Anytime.

Do you think you could add polyphony to it?

I'm thinking a simple slider to determine the number of polyphony voices within a range of 2 to 7, plus two different stacking modes: chromatic and scale aware.

The 1.5 update is incredible.

Everything works perfectly and the nudge and quantize features are amazing, thanks!

Been using this a lot lately and it's got me thinking it would be nice if the notes in the lanes could be nudged left and right.

Also, the first step of the pitch sequence defaults to F3, any quick way of changing that to C3?

Cheers.

haha, far from it man, thanks

Thanks for the tip.

Other than that little problem, I think the tool is brilliant for creating extremely weird and experimental rhythms by combining the Steps value with different Gate values.

I see that you added randomization to the gates but no shuffle sadly, that's what I'd implement next.

I would also remove two of the step lanes and leave a single one with random and shuffle, as the other two always end up adding too many notes to the overall sequence when randomized. Either way, keep it up!

Thanks for the update, there's one other thing:

Generators are usually able to to generate notes only within a selected time frame within the clip if wanted.

This one always takes up the whole clip even if you make a time selection before pressing Generate.

Hope that helps, thanks again.

I've detected a bug.

When the Notes value is changed, the sequence doesn't update.

You have to turn a gate step off and on or viceversa to make it update.

Hope that helps.

Great generator, a shame it doesn't feature shuffle and random on the gate lanes too.

A legato function would be handy as well.

Thanks!

Great idea, sadly, I can't make it work on Ableton 12/Windows 11.

I hit record, run audio through it and hit stop, but nothing is saved.

Great device, it would be awesome if it had a way to select which of the voices is the one that remains when applied. Currently it defaults to the top voice only.

This is incredible. Any plans on porting it to Ableton 12 as a transformation tool?

Awesome device. Any chance of a MIDI version of it?

It no longer works with the new Ableton 12 modulators. Any plan to update it?

Great device. Is there a way to invert the default mapping of the arm button so that it gets turn off instead of on?

Incredible device, much appreciated. There's something about the way it generates new notes that seems a bit off, though. I think the device should generate new notes as the x value changes, in order to avoid pitch repetition, but this doesn't seem to be the case. If you do a slow sweep on the x axis you don't get a single midi note for each pitch, you get repeated notes with the same pitch.

Hi, great device. I've found a minor inconvenience that occurs after recording the automation.

When the playhead runs through the automated curve, the re-enable automation button lights up and the automated parameter gets locked.

You can unlock the parameter with the re-enable automation button, but when the playhead goes through the automation curve, it happens all over again.

The only way I've found to prevent this is to un-map the parameter from the automation recorder or to turn it off, which is not very convenient.

I'm using Ableton 11 on Windows 10, hope this helps.

Cheers

Great addition, thanks.
It would be great being able to retrigger it on note on.

This is incredible, thanks.

Great contribution, but it doesn't seem to work. If I place it on a MIDI or audio track, it blocks the signal.

Any chance of adding a reset button to restart the sequence?

When the device is fed chords, the step sequencer runs as many steps as the number of notes that the chord has; any way to avoid that? Thanks.

The UI breaks when trying to drag notes in Fold mode. Awesome device, though, many thanks.
