I played with it a bit and had lotsa fun with it. Very useful, i will definitely use it in my current project (bunch of techno-ambient-dub tracks).

its shit like this that makes me check this site regularly.
cheers. I'm going to play with these.
They must create all different time signatures too. unless you're trying to programmatically use these, it's probably best to hammer something out with you hands and use these clips to add some subtle polyrhythms as accents. but in theory you can create any beat you want with these. you just have to be selective in where you place... say... a 2:3 clip in the first bar of a 4 bar pattern.
youtube must be down today or having screwy issues. the video wont load unless i use https.. not http. hmmm... re: time signatures... these things will loop independently of your time signature (in ableton at least) so if a clip has (n) = 14, then it will repeat after 14 16th notes regardless of what your time signature is. it's a good way to "fake" time signature shifts, but you have to do some math or maybe visually see when the different time sigs converge again for a clean phrase. congratulations on getting on cdm,
this looks interesting Signup to comment
