“Musical Idea Machines” (not only) for beginners to get jamming with Drambo
Get them on Patchstorage: https://patchstorage.com/musical-idea-machines/
Two “Musical Idea Machines” templates to quickly sketch out some beats or enjoy a simple jam. Thanks go to Synth Seeker whose YouTube video inspired me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJ5uO7xjPek
Both templates use the Main track as transposition track. Use it to sequence key changes etc.
“Musical Idea Machine 2” offers eight instrument tracks (Pluck, Soft Pluck, Bass, Pad, Lead, Kick, Snare and Hats) plus an Automation track and two sends (Chorus/Delay and Reverb).
“SequencerGalore” makes use of sub tracks. Best to simply press play, have a listen and look at the demo sequences to see how things work. Each synth (red and green) gets the mixed output of three sequencer tracks. Use sequences of different lengths to create evolving patterns. “Blue” is just a single lead synth track.
The individual synth tracks of the templates contain additional quantiser and transposition modules that can help to manually add more variation while jamming.
Comments
If you send a cv offset after the quantizers it will change key. I have some patches on patchstorage called Key Automator that does that and a bit more.
this has been super helpful. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏽
