Overview
| Name | Version: | Metapath 1.0 |
| Author: | ManifestAudioLLC |
| Device Type: | MIDI Generator |
| Description: | Departing from a base pitch, Metapath will traverse a slope of note pitches over a specified distance in either current note grid or actual note intervals before changing directions and sloping in the opposite direction over the same distance. Below the distance, base, and slope dials are percentage controls for randomization of these parameters which are calculated at each pivot point to produce less repetitive pathways. Another slider beneath Slope helps it tend generally more upward or downward toward its final destination. Beneath this we have a chance of note lengths being tied, a base velocity for all generated notes, and a pattern density to make it less busy. Finally we have pitch range constraints to narrow the path output. To understand the calculations taken, you might want to set the distance, base, and slope randomization sliders to 0% and see how it behaves. MIDI GENERATOR TOOL FOR LIVE 12 INCLUDED WITH MIDI TOOLSET 001 MIDI Tools are an innovative new category of creative devices available in Live 12. Designed by Ableton Certified Trainer Noah Pred to accelerate workflow, enhance creativity, and access new musical ideas, our inaugural MIDI Toolset includes four MIDI Generators and eight MIDI Transformers. Harness the power of seven different randomization algorithms to generate compelling new melodies and chords with Metaflux, take polyrhythmic expression to the limit with Metarhythm, intuitively draw complex gestures with Metasketch, and carve new melodic contours with Metapath. Then take things further and transform your MIDI by imposing unique rhythmic patterning on existing sequences with Euclidifier, adding dramatic variations with Fluctuator or more subtle changes with Inebriator, harness note activation to rapidly generate pattern variations with Mutator, use Octavator for randomized transpositions by octave, use Swinger for randomized per-note shuffle timing, Tether to randomly add note ties, or apply Tilter to adjust chance, velocity, and length on a key-scaled, pitch-relative basis. All MIDI Tools are scale aware and Info View annotated to seamlessly enhance your creative experience. Version: 1.02 (2024.03.14) Requires: Ableton Live 12.x running Max for Live 8.6.x on Mac or PC. Includes: Metaflux, Metarhythm, Metapath, and Metasketch MIDI Tool Generators; Euclidifier, Fluctuator, Inebriator, Mutator, Octavator, Swinger, Tether, and Tilter MIDI Tool Transformers; Utility Boost, user guide. |
