Some sequencers have a randomization feature where you roll a die and the steps are automatically placed in the sequence according to the specified scale or note. Is it possible to do something similar in drambo?
Not as directly as clicking a button but you can set up modules that generate patterns and send it out as midi feedback and record the midi to another track.
I made something, that creates an 8 step sequence and keeps it going until you change parameters or generate a new sequence. If you want to keep something, you have to record it, though (for example with the sequencer module), as it relies on the randomizer, which doesn't state save the actual values, but just the ranges.
A trick I like is using the euclidian seq with a meta randomizer switching steps/fill/accents, for the random gate part. Combined with @rs2000 pitch generator it gives some nice bach-esque sequences. Now how would I prolong gates, so not all notes are 16ths?
So far the most convenient option for me is to use third-party applications for generative music, for example Cem Olkay. I place them as midi. In this case, the sequence you like can be recorded in the step sequencer. It's super convenient!
But I did notice one bug. When I delete the application, the sequence still continues to play. And only rebooting drambo helps to reset it.

Or without feedback, using the Sequencer module:

You can have your own definable gate lengths using the Grtaphic Envelope, morphing its Length knob e.g. by a random number.
Hmm I’ll have to get back to you on that. I love this kind of things
I tried to install and connect the modules, but I didn't succeed. Perhaps I lack knowledge of Drambo. Or maybe my hands are in the wrong place))))
