Im a huge Randomiser\Arp\Sequencer fan, just downloaded this and played around and immediately realised how INSANELY strong this is. This could be put into some flashy 3rd party GUI and be sold for $$$. But the maker decided to give it out for free... one of the best M4L devices out there for sure.

Thanks for such a clear, fun and inspiring tute Tom. It's really appreciated how much effort you have made in this (and your other) vids.

I love your creative production on your videos. Straight to the point and your animations makes it so easy to watch through. Thank you.

Thanks, this was an excellent resource to find. I really appreciate the way you explain the functionality, and then go deeper. So I am experimenting with sending the midi to an old synth thru Ableton. Thanks!

Thank you so much for your job. I find your videos very informative and useful! Keep it up, followers are really appreciate this I promise!

Always very clean and informative, you sir are a real gem to this community. Thanks !

Love this. I own a Rene mk 1 and this is like having a whole bunch of them clocked together + it's way faster to set up. Using it with my Expert sleepers interface so it's sequencing virtual instruments and my modular setup. Be nice to have a second ( or third ) set of customisable parameters to assign, but apart from that this rocks. So good ;)

Yet another reason to get max for Live!!!

Nice! Never even looked into the max for live stuff didn’t realize how powerful it is. This is an insane video

There might be a subtle difference between using the internal quantizer and using the scale plug in with regards to random note distribution. It's clearly visible in the c minor example. Some note vales have two 'slots' while others only have one, favoring the notes with two slots over the others.

Thank you for the videos

Awesome dawsome 🔥💥

I love it ... Tnks

very good!

very cool neat vid, thx

Awesome device! It kind of reminds me... Any way of adding a tab dedicated to setting up probability/trigger conditions values on each knob (step), somehow like what we find on most Elektron devices?

this is soooo freakin cool ty

Hard to believe there is no other way to make sequencers stop playing normally. It's so annoying. Thanks for your creative work around!

nice synth sound

Cool idea with the clips to turn on/off - it is an issue I was facing! Solved. Thanks.

FL studio's step sequencer is a beast

Wow

This is *almost* exactly what i've been looking for! Is there a device like this that can perform these same pattern variations on pre-existing midi clips? I.e. I program a melody I like, but I want to create rhythmic variations to it by having the notes play in different orders.

nice

LOVE U

I'm having a problem with Snake. Sometimes when I'm doing random stuff in A bleton (changing parameters, moving clips, or even pressing save) the settings on the Snake randomly change so the arp rhythm is different, but all the settings actually appear the same as before, making it impossible to change it back unless you press undo. Its incredibly frustrating having to press undo all the time to reverse whatever glitch it is. Anyone have any pointers?

It is an awesome tool ideed. One warning though: It seems, as if using the Sequencer glitches with Abletons Undo/Redo Option. I accidentally deleted a group of instruments and audio tracks in Session View, but when I hit "Undo", it would only undo/redo adjustments I made to the Sequencer Plug-In. Don't know if everyone has this problem

nice video, can anyone tell me what synth sounds / preset this is / or link me to a guide on how to create, thanks

Would you be able to use cv tools to get the gate and pitch outputted to a modular ?

@ELPHNT

4 жыл бұрын

Yes, definitely! The CV Instrument takes in MIDI data and sends out CV + Gate, so just stick SNAKE before the CV Instrument and set it up with your modular as per usual.

Ableton without Max Live is just like: Romeo without Juliet... This is what I was looking for, thanks!

anyone know of a free non-mfl alternative? Loved using the snake w/ demo but can't find anything close to it (for free) that's available just as vst

wow

You have to create the folders elsewhere in The Browser, for example in the User Library or the Places section. Then you can add those folders to Collections. I personally use the User Library.

How can you create notes longer than 16th? While speed is still 16n?

Thanks again for showing us how to do stuff! I have a question though. If there's a Rene plugin... Is there a 0-Control plugin? I want to buy the hardware unit to pair with my 0-Coast, but, you know, money etc. What attracts me most to the 0-Control is the timing options. The fact that you can adjust the timing and swing on a per-step basis. Is there a software option that replicates that?

If you're talking about capturing the MIDI data it generates, the best way to do that is to set up another blank MIDI Track, then at the Input set it to receive MIDI from the Track you've put SNAKE on. Then if you record onto that new MIDI track it will record the output of whatever SNAKE generates.
