  • In this video I look at ways to use creative midi processing to expand your ideas and take them in new directions using Ableton's stock midi effects. I went for an early 00's IDM/electronic vibe of a simple chord progression, bassline, drums and melody and gave them a bit of extra juice to make them more interesting.

    Man, I just loved the idea of the random midi fx mixed with the probability in the drums, and with the arpeggio in melodies also. Thank you so much, I think you just helped me find the solution for get more motivated to keep going while composing. Basically I get bored of my own loops after a while ...
    And in the end I can always comeback to the randomness part capture the midi in a new track and choose and edit the best loops.

      It's funny you say that.... I got into modular during COVID and I swear the transition was made so much easier from watching Ned's videos for years. (not in terms of synthesis itself but all the insane routing possibilities) It made the open flexibility and mad routing chains easier to handle. Also Ned's old random velocity tricks etc work wonders when sending MIDI to CV. Ned is the hero we all need,

    Lovely video and concepts! With the random melody/notes generation I like adding a max 4 live lfo mapped to change the rate of the arpeggiator and to the random chance rate. This way you get flurries of fast notes and slow notes with large gaps in between as well as a change in how much the notes change. This is perfect for when you want things even more organically and less repetitive. In fact this makes me want to make a video about it just to see what that sounds like haha 😆

    says: but perhaps you got a limited skill set when it comes to how music works generally.
    says: im gonna work in c major but im going to use mode two of c major wich as we all know is d dorian
    also says: a very satisfying fluctuation between minor and major flavors bcs of the inclusion of the minor third and the minor seventh but also the major second and the major sixth.
    love your vids man! gave me allot of inspiration and laughs ! id love to share some beers with you while doing a little jam !

In return I would give vip access to the site for life and of course you would be getting more clicks as well
    let me know what you think
