v119 has solved my loading problems and I look forward to using the new offset function for even notes!

Cheers!

Would something like min and max values for randomization of each parameter make sense?

For example, I don't really want to get 80 notes a lot of the time for how I'm trying to randomize- I want happy accidents but I need somewhere between like 6 and 14 notes.

I've got some ideas related to what you're talking about. I'll keep working on improving Harmony Bloom.

If you're interested in exploring the latest features of Harmony Bloom 1.2.0 before it's released, such as "Spectator Mode," "Custom Colors," and "Custom Scales," I'll be streaming live on YouTube today. Feel free to turn on notifications and swing by to say hi.

What’s New:

NEW: Added controls for the user to choose the UI colors and save them as a default.

NEW (Experimental): The spectator mode is an experimental feature designed to provide a cleaner and more focused viewing experience. When activated, this mode hides all interface elements associated with sequence editing. This leaves only the sequencer visible in the center of the screen, allowing for a distraction-free immersion in the content being viewed.

NEW: Trigger bars that can be mapped to different midi channels. (ONLY IN STANDALONE) , incompatible with DAWs like Ableton due to their internal routing limitations that merge all MIDI messages.

NEW: Show or hide orbits.

NEW: New tools and options to select notes and change their state to be active or not, giving total control to the user over which notes will play.

NEW: Octave selector.

NEW: Control-click acts as right-click.

FIXED: MIDI export buttons generate an empty file when there are no MIDI data recorded, which creates an unusable and problematic file in some DAWs.

NEW: Custom Scales Option.

NEW: Setting panel Layout For Standalone.

FIXED: Can't choose '53' or '59' under Probability.

FIXED: Top Bar popup options for buttons.

FIXED: CC mapped fail with top Bar Buttons, Random Speed Offset, Random Even Offset.

FIXED: Random Probability percentage CC tied to Loop Length.

FIXED: Globla reset reset G.Offet and E:Offset.

Several fixes and corrections in the UI.

What’s New:

- NEW: Now in the plugin version, Trigger Bars can be mapped to be sent through different independent MIDI channels. Additionally, it is possible to select the octave for each trigger bar independently. IMPORTANT NOTE: Not all DAWs can handle internal multi-channel MIDI routing. For instance, Ableton cannot do this on Desktop, as it is a limitation imposed by the DAW itself. The same applies to some DAWs for iPadOS, so depending on the DAW you use, multi-channel sending internally may not be possible.

- NEW: Bypass. When active, all incoming MIDI signals pass through Harmony Bloom unaffected, effectively bypassing its processing. It's equivalent to disabling the plugin.

- NEW: Added new Custom Colors for Dots. Customize the appearance of dots (notes on the spiral) with your choice of colors, enhancing visual feedback and personalizing your user experience.

- NEW: The header colors now match the selected colors.

- NEW: Now the presets can be exported one by one.

- Change of direction and position of the arrows for changing presets to have better control.

- Now, various playback controls, like the midi keyboard mode, have the option active to maintain the state through preset changes by default.

- UI Changes and corrections.

- FIXED: MIDI mappings for the trigger bars were not working correctly.

- FIXED: Fixed issue with correct loading using factory presets, quantize offset was loaded a value below the original.

Harmony Bloom 1.2.8 Free Update Available for Desktop (Coming soon to iOS)

How to Update:

Harmony Bloom automatically detects when a new version is available, and the plugin itself will offer the option to download the new installer directly.

Alternatively, you can download it from your account at www.marionietoworld.com

If you bought Harmony Bloom without an account, don't worry. Just create an account at www.marionietoworld.com using the same email you used for the purchase, and then email me to link your purchase to your new account.

What’s New:

**NEW: Advanced Quantization Settings:** Control note spacing with quantized adjustments for F.Offset, E.Offset, and G.Offset, ensuring sequences align perfectly with your project grid.

**NEW: individual 'Toggle Random Octave Mode'** : controls for each bar in the sequencer: When activated, this mode enables each note triggered by the bar to be played in a randomly selected octave. This feature allows for intricate pitch variations and adds an element of unpredictability to each segment of your musical compositions.

**NEW: Octave controls by trigger bar** now feature the option to be included within the random octave trigger. For example, we can activate the 0 and 12 options in the octave controls, so whenever we have a random trigger, it will only select either 0 or 12, excluding the rest of the options.

**NEW: Auto Fit Window:** On very rare occasions, users may experience issues with the window size. To address this, I have added a button in the settings window that resets the window size and sets the limits on how large or small the window can be resized, based on the monitor it is displayed on.

**FIXED**: Improved precision in automation of large values. Previously, some values lost precision due to rounding during automation in a DAW. This fix enhances fine-tuning capabilities, ensuring maximum accuracy when adjusting parameters through automation.

Pretty nice approach

This beauty keeps on getting more 'awesomer' than it already was when you released it into the wild. So great how you show the software, play with it and keep developing it right in front of our eyes, very inspiring..... and now I know where I remember your name from - you're the developer of pretty much all the Audiomodern stuff. Got all of those too.

Hi guys!

Today, I will be making live music with the upcoming development version of Harmony Bloom. Here, you will be able to see the new features of version 1.3.0 in real-time. Although I don't have a release date yet, as I'm working on several projects simultaneously, I aim to release it in a few weeks.

Hi, has anyone tried this with metaplugin or patchwork for pro tools? I think metaplugin with its modular cable system would be ideal for this - if it's compatible. Thoughts?

That said, an AAX midi version would be terrific!

The best option to use Harmony Bloom in Pro Tools right now is to use:

It's free and allows you to load VST3 and handle MIDI routing very easily.

What’s New:

- NEW: Added patterns (states) that can be saved quickly. These patterns are stored together with the presets.
- NEW: option to Randomizes the colors of the interface.. The colors can be excluded/included from randomization by right-clicking on the color and selecting 'IGNORE RANDOM COLOUR ACTION' or 'ENABLE RANDOM COLOUR ACTION'.
- NEW: Quantize Notes Duration: It is now possible to quantize the duration of notes relative to the loop time, allowing notes to be held for precise intervals. When active, the duration is measured relative to the loop and quantized instead of in seconds. For example, setting QUANT. NOTE DURATION to 1/1 will trigger and hold the note for the entire loop cycle, enabling detailed control over note timing and duration in your compositions.
- NEW: When MIDI Learn is active, a text message is displayed in the window to notify us that we are in MIDI Learn mode. A new function has been added to stop MIDI Learn via right click on a parameter.
- NEW: Now the presets or looks files exported from the iPad version can be imported into the desktop version and vice versa.
- NEW: added midi learn for notes actions random active notes ,select all notes, etc…
- NEW: Show the notes that are being played on the keyboard.
- NEW: Copy / Paste colors options.

- FIXED: When loading the presets in Standalone version the midi out was disconnected.
- FIXED: Harmony Bloom can now read imported presets directly by adding the preset folder to the root preset folder.
- FIXED: Occasionally did not save the window size correctly.
- FIXED: small corrections…

Amazing thank you very much !

Yeah just after I made the post I got the email from Modalics as I have their Beat Scholar software (which btw is also very special).

I can not believe how easy it is to route midi plugins in Pro Tools, so since you yourself are saying it works I will buy Harmony Bloom next payday

Awesome!
Can this plug-ins also generate chords? I’m looking for a software alternative for the Conductive Labs NDLR hardware sequencer which can generate 4 parts in the same scale at once (chord, drone and arpeggiators)

Guy is a badass when it comes to making music too.

But he's a weird one. Spamming certain forums with his live streams, yet making them private when you try to find them later. Worst of both worlds.

He's a cool guy. Just needs to be able to navigate the digital river a bit better.

I got those streams bookmarked and they are some of the best music I ever heard.

Oh, yeah, bought his Max 4 Live stuff too that he did through Audio Modern and they are great.

Support this dev. He's a bit naive, but could use the support.

His heart is in the right place and he's very talented.

He's also on fire right now with his dev stuff.

Try to catch his music too while you can, because he's actually pretty clueless with how good it is. His music is even better than his dev work, but he's oblivious to it all, just lost in coding.

His work is very inexpensive to buy. Grab anything you can by him. He's a super talent.

All of this is meant as a compliment by the way...

Yes it can if you know what you are doing.

But he is making a specific and dedicated chord sequencer that will come to market soon. Not much longer to wait.

A video appeared today! Curious how the chord plugin will integrate with Bloom

This is one of the most innovative sequencers I have found and used over the last years.
Honestly, if you didnt, pls try it.
Seriously considering selling all the eurorack generative sequencers I have.
Finally a proper sequencer tool that can be used digitally.

Thanks Mario!

Going to follow the YT HB essentials series, great idea .. thank you.
