A bunch of cool stuff but I dont get why the world is so nuts about randomization and probability...:-)

I want a tool that I can control and create phrases and harmony with. Velocity is still static during the cycle unless I press the random button right?

Well, many of us like happy accidents, although you can't use the randomization buttons

Regarding the velocity, you can use it in several ways:

With the Midikeyboard active and the random velocity off, the velocity of the incoming note will be limited by the V.MIN and V.MAX.

With the Midikeyboard deactivated and the random velocity off, the velocity of the notes will be the V.MAX. But both V.MAX and V.MIN can be automated from the DAW or controlled via CC.

With the Midikeyboard either active or inactive but with random velocity on, the velocity is generated between V.MIN and V.MAX.

Best

One of the midi generators I have, The Gridfather features multiple outputs so certain notes can go to one instrument, others to another, & so on.. these are the kinds of features I would focus on to expand this plugin.

Free for users who already have it. Just need to log into your account at www.marionietoworld.com

Here's what's new:

Link Play With Transport DAW: When active, Play/Pause will be automatically controlled by the DAW.

Introduced Velocity Range Controller with V.MIN and V.MAX for setting minimum and maximum note velocities, and a Randomize Velocity button for dynamic, human-like velocity variation within defined limits. Perfect for nuanced control and expressive playback.

New Probability Function: This function enables the creation of dynamic and randomized musical patterns by triggering notes according to a specified probability percentage. A setting of 0% indicates that there is no chance of notes being triggered, while 100% ensures that notes will be triggered with certainty.

The Speed Offset parameter controls the timing between notes: for values from 0.0 to 1.0, notes progressively speed up from the center outward; for values between 0.0 and -1.0, notes slow down from the center outward.

Added 3 more options to loop Length: 32, 64, and 128. This allows the notes to take much more time to complete a loop.

New button to turn the display of lines between notes on or off.

In Standalone, it is now possible to select the MIDI output Device and Channel.

Added new Chromatic note Collection.

Now, when my keyboard is off, we can control the transposition (N.Min) of the generated sequence from the incoming MIDI.

Improved N.Length controller: The circular loading feature has been modified to stop at the first or last option, preventing the automatic reload to the opposite end. This change ensures sequences do not speed up or slow down abruptly, allowing only adjacent options to be selected without cycling through the list.

Expose Trigger Bars: Now it's possible to automate the state of the trigger bars from the DAW.

CC Control for Trigger Bars: Now it's possible to control the state of the trigger bars from the midi CC messages.

Expose Midi Capture Button:: Now it's possible to automate the state of the Midi Capture Button from the DAW.

CC Control for Midi Capture Button: Now it's possible to control the state of the Midi Capture from the midi CC messages.

Fixed Bug: controlling the N.Length from the DAW.

Would it be possible to have a global offset? Meaning that when you retrigger the sequence you can set the first note that starts. Makes it easier to sync up with percussion patterns etc. Now you have to export to midi and shift the notes by hand. That works but it's tedious.

When I got it you can download it and that was fine.

New Harmony Bloom v1.1.2 update is available. Free for users who already have it.

Just need to log into your account at www.marionietoworld.com to download the 1.1.2 installer for the update, and it's not necessary to re-enter the serial number.

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 Reverse Option. Now it's possible to change the direction in which the notes spin.

Some UI Changes, the look of the spiral has been refined, and among other things, now every time a note is played, the circle and what's around the sequencer light up momentarily, creating a more magical visual experience.

Added bigger range for note durations up to 10 seconds.

Note duration has been added to the Random Global system.

New: When you open the "save preset" dialog, if there's a preset already loaded, its name will auto-fill in the name field but with a number added to the end. This makes it faster to save variations of a preset, as it suggests a new, incrementally numbered name based on the current one.

Bug Fix: Fixed a compatibility issue with the standalone and plugin versions that caused a crash in the plugin version.

Bug Fix: After the sequencer exceeds a very high number of cycles, the trigger bars stopped working correctly.

Bug Fix: Retrigger notes doesn't work well with overlapping notes.

Bug Fix: Exporting the MIDI captured through the export button did not generate a correct MIDI file.

Thank you.

Would be very interesting though to see you and Peter connect somewhere in the future about it.


The Idea for suggesting alternate scale import from my side was this neat little plugin, which might look a bit familiar at least from the basic logic behind it.

What’s New?

- New: Use Input Notes Functions: Enable this feature to have the sequencer adaptively use incoming notes in sequence instead of the pre-defined note collection. When active, any notes input will directly influence the note sequence, providing a dynamic and responsive musical creation experience.

- New: Global Offset allows shifting the entire sequence together.

- New: by right-clicking on a parameter, we have a new function: Keep on preset Switch. When this is active, the parameter will keep its current state when changing presets.

- Quite a few adjustments in the UI, both the layout and colors, to give Harmony Bloom better legibility and contrast.

- Bug Fix: The CC wasn't working correctly when mapped in the Random functions.

- Minor Fixes and corrections.
