Red Earth Audio has released Rifflab, a probability based step sequencer for Native Instruments Reaktor, capable of generating and playing up to 3 scale locked sequences simultaneously.
Each sequence is generated in accordance with the probability parameters set by the user. The Probability sliders allow control of Pitch, Velocity, Note Length, Step Length, Progression, and up to 7 Modulation lines for each generated sequence. It is capable of producing basslines, leads, melodies, chords and arpeggios with unlimited possibilities.
Each click of the Generate button will create an entire new sequence based on the probability parameters you’ve set.
Like some notes but not others? Either lock your favourite notes in and press Generate again, or use the sliders to adjust the output values.
