Toms Midi Mangler 1.1 - Probabilistic Reaktor/Falcon Midi Ensemble (not only) for BWS... :-) 2014-03-24T21:21:55+00:00 Hey, recently I was asked on the epic Bitwig Thread and via PM if BWS has Midi Devices like the Random Velocity and Random Pitch in Live or what similar Tools there are to replace those. And while there are hundreds of Midi Tools available, none of them does what I usually want in a straight forward manner. So to celebrate the BWS Release I want to introduce "Toms Midi Mangler", a Reaktor 6 Ensemble that allows you to: a.) Set a probability for incoming Notes being played (or not). b.) Set a probability for each the Velocity and the Pitch of those Notes going through to be randomly offset. c.) Set a Random Offset Amount for those selected Notes. d.) Set both for Velocity and Pitch if the Offset should only go up, down or both directions. e.) Set an upper and lower Note Limit. f.) Finally optionally keep the resulting Notes inside a certain Scale. (the last part uses a Macro from bubu called bubumapper - thanks for that!). This is a first public version - feel free to give feedback how it works for you and help me improve it - I'm relatively new to Reaktor so maybe some stuff can be done more efficiently? This is the initial work-in-progress-Interface: http://www.screendream.de/stuff/Reaktor/TomsMidiMangler_v003.jpg EDIT: 16 September 2015 - Version 1.1 uploaded. I can't create hanging notes anymore - so I hope it's good for you guys too. Completely reworked in Reaktor 6 with (mostly) Core. Download here: https://www.native-instruments.com/en/community/reaktor-user-library/entry/show/7841/ - This allows you to have for instance one simple Midi Loop running and make it ever-changing - from subtle to drastic... - Or feed the Midi-Only output of a Drum VST like Jamstix through it to add variety and map it with the note range knobs to the spread of a weird bunch of samples in the BWs-Sampler, DrumMachine or Kontakt... - Use dense classical Midi Files as Input and check the Result if you reduce the Note Probability and add some variations... With this you should be covered in the Midi Realm (if you have Reaktor) until BWS will have more Midi Tools included. Other worthwhile Midi-Tools and Collections I would recommend to look into: The PizMidi Collection: http://www.thepiz.org/plugins/?p=pizmidi (Free) HyperCyclic: http://www.mucoder.net/en/hypercyclic/ (Free) Blue Arp: http://www.graywolf2004.net/my-projects/blue-arp-vst-arpeggiator/ (Free) And of course Kirnu Cream, Cthulhu, Thesys and Axon as well as some wonderful Reaktor Ensembles like nod-e http://www.antonioblanca.com/nod-e Since you can have all those note generators and manglers inside one track, they're really a joy to work with in Bitwig Studio :-) Edit: There now is a slightly different version for Falcon as well: http://www.screendream.de/stuff/Falcon/TomsMidiManglerForFalcon.jpg Check it out here on the epic Falcon thread: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=449200&p=6297764#p6297764 Enjoy!!! :party: Cheers, Tom ThomasHelzle https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=195466

Thanks Tom

Make that a 6 out of 5 from my point of view...

(should you have MachFive, you get a discount BTW.)

Cheers,

Tom
