Bouncy Notes

• Can be used to create gravity-inspired bouncy MIDI where the rhythm is not on the grid.
• Can be used with melodic notes or rhythms / drum racks
• Notes and rhythms can be quantised so that notes lie on a scale rather than chromatic. Rhythms can be quantised to reduce the effect of being off the grid.
  • Application of Bouncy Notes can be just to add some randomness that is somewhat "inspired by nature" rather than just arbitrary.
  • See "Inspired by nature" recipe

Tree Tone

• Harmonics with overtones / harmonic series (see full description in the manual)
• Excite the generator with "wind" = constant random noise (Pink noise) or "rain" = strike exciter. Additional option to excite the system by audio input from another channel.
• Both wind and rain can be tailored for more or less, and wind / noise can be fed through the system to provide Pink noise / wind sound.
• Harmonic notes / series can be quantised to a scale
• LFOs can be applied to parameters
• GREAT for generating drones which you can apply FX to.

Vector FM, Vector Delay

• Other plugins / applications within the pack
