anyone know where i can find a plugin that is capable of randomizing midi notes?
For example, if i am experiencing writers block and just want to randomize some synth leads to hear some wacked out effects.
Think Reason's Matrix Sequencer.
Think Cubase's Step Designer.
Anything?
yeah step sequencing is a big thing in our studio heheheh
try an old thing called seq-303, hooked up via hubi's loopback .. use the 'r' button :)
if you have ableton, you really need to get hold of that covert operators thingy.. there's a random thing on that and it's amazing if you just let it record a whole load of crap and then go back to the recording and see if you can make things fit :)
good luck.. lemme know how you get on!!!
ps would love to hear any more suggestions!!!
+1 its a great program!Quote:

thanks for the suggestion!!
Only problem is that im running on a Mac and I checked out the 303 is only windows compatible :(.
I have migrated from Cubase SX3 to Logic Pro 8 and i'm pulling out my hair trying to figure out if Logic has midi plugin equivalent to Cubase's step designer.
But please keep the suggestions coming!!
If you like programming you could try Chuck which is an on the fly audio programming language. I made an automatic techno song generator with it. :laughing:
For instance for my bassline It creates a random 1 bar pattern and then loops this over 4 bars so i can get a feel for how the pattern sounds. It continues this randomise/loop process untill I decide I really like the pattern then I press a key to break it out of the process & keep it looping. I have set it up to feed midi data into Abelton and it works well. Next step when i get some time is get the same process going for non-note data, Midi CC's etc.
NB. If you arent prepared to get nerdy with code Chuck is not for you. But its an amazing piece of software (for nerds)

You could rewire fl studio into cubase perhaps?
Or check what i found on k-v-r via the plugin database search function:
