#RAPIDCOMPOSER DRUMS GENERATOR#

Melody Generator UI improvements: ‘2nd Last Note’ menu added, Tonic, Step Above Tonic, Step Below Tonic added to ‘Last Note’ options.New Idea Tool track option: ‘Select Phrases From List In Random Order’.

Vertical scrollbar has magnifiers to allow zooming.Double-clicking on horizontal or vertical scrollbars zooms out the view, another double-click restores the previous view.‘Create Tone Row’ setting for chromatic progression generation (experimental setting, which must be enabled under Settings / Miscellaneous).New menu added when right-clicking on a master track scale/tempo/signature where scale/tempo/signature can be reviewed and edited for all levels (composition, part, line, local).Sending MIDI Machine Control events is implemented (enable under Settings / MIDI).When unlocked, the rule automatically changes based on the scale (default). Chord rules lock have been added to all chord rules settings.Past ‘undo’ states can be stored in RAM or on disk.Undo/redo arrows added to main composition, History tab removed.

#RAPIDCOMPOSER DRUMS SOFTWARE#

RapidComposer is a unique, non-destructive, phrase-based music prototyping software designed for composers, song-writers and musicians of all musical styles. Since they are audio recordings we would need to do some fancy live dynamic time-stretching to impart swing and it may not translate well to all parts/variations.MusicDevelopments has updated the RapidComposer music prototyping software to version 4.2. Never would've found this gem.Īs for swing, you can add it for live pad playing (see the controls next to the pads, it might be with the repeat divisions), but not for the loops. Only thing missing (unless it's there and I can't find it) is swing. Tried DrumJam.instantly bought all the packs.

Plus on the pads area there is the random Bedlam effects. You can lock down any parts you don't want to change, and restrict which instruments might show up. If you press and hold the buttons you can enable auto-randomize which will periodically (also with random period) trigger randomize. Uncorrelated becomes said:ĭrumJam is not generative but it has randomize features to give different combinations of percussion elements and variations. I have an idea in mind, using midiflow app to remap notes condition to have a meaningful Conway's life when playing Quincy. Which is a pity because I like the concept otherwise. I have come to the same conclusion about Quincy, it seems to be completely arbitrary and not related to what you draw. At a finer ongoing level for each step or each position, there is no correlation and no way of defining a meaningful correlation between sound and vision. There is very little correlation between what you see and what you hear, other than that the choice of starting “seed” and the choice of type of music seem vaguely linked from the start. I now consider it to be an app that shows an animated Conway’s Game of Life visual display, while it plays its own music along to that. I can also find no way of deciding what sound will be made upon which visual condition. I’ve had Quincy for a long time, but I have recently realised that I can see no relationship, none at all, between what I hear and what I see.

Thanks and And set to Hold and I can 'walk away' for a bit and fiddle with, eg, the synth that's Gestrument's playing via MIDI Out. Didn't quite see it before as generative. More hit and miss in that it can get way too randomly chaotic very easily, but can also get awesome happy accidents with it as well. I can spend hours playing & experimenting in this one. I'm begining to see this already stellar app in a whole new light.Īlso, +1 for Xynthesizr. That created some random, incredibly beautiful progressions. Then set the rhythm randomness at 100%, pitch fluctuation at about 75%, and infinite play. This time enabling new instruments and connecting several string-like patchs from the DRC synth (since I find its midi controls clear, straight forward, and intuitive). The problem was I was always generally trying to connect external synths instead of enabling a new intrument and connecting to that.Īfter reading this post I gave it another go. Yes, I knew it has midi settings, but the level of control seemed too daunting and could never get anything connected. I'd always thought of gestrument as its own instrument with its own set of built-in sounds, not as a midi controller per se. I've been mostly lost trying to figure out midi connection stuff, but am slowly getting a better understanding of it all. This comment finally triggered an a-ha moment for me. Gestrument allows a lot of randomization, and is mainly a 'MIDI controller instrument' but also has some built-in sounds.
