Transformers

Transformers process notes in real-time as they flow through the graph. Connect a source node's output to a transformer's input, then connect the transformer's output to an instrument. Each transformer can be enabled or bypassed.

PROBABILITY GATE

Randomly passes or blocks notes based on a probability value.

• Probability - 0.0 (block all) to 1.0 (pass all)
• Modulatable: Probability

TRANSPOSE

Shifts all notes by a fixed number of semitones.

• Semitones - -48 to +48
• Modulatable: Semitones

VELOCITY SCALER

Adjusts note velocities with a multiplier and offset.

• Scale - 0.0 to 2.0 (velocity multiplier)
• Offset - -1.0 to +1.0 (velocity offset added after scaling)
• Modulatable: Scale, Offset

NOTE FILTER

Only passes notes within specified pitch and velocity ranges.

• Min Pitch - 0 to 127
• Max Pitch - 0 to 127
• Min Velocity - 0.0 to 1.0
• Max Velocity - 0.0 to 1.0

CHORD GENERATOR

Takes each incoming note and outputs a full chord.

• Chord Type - Major, Minor, Diminished, Augmented, Major7, Minor7,
• Dominant7, Sus2, Sus4, Power, Octave
• Inversion - 0 to 3

ARPEGGIATOR

Holds incoming notes and plays them as an arpeggiated sequence.

• Pattern - Up, Down, UpDown, DownUp, Random, Order
• Rate - 0.0625 to 2.0 beats per note (default: 0.25 = 16th notes)
• Octave Range - 1 to 4 octaves
• Gate Length - 0.1 to 1.0 (note length as fraction of step)
• Modulatable: Rate

EUCLIDEAN RHYTHM

Applies a Euclidean rhythm pattern (Bjorklund's algorithm) to incoming notes. The editor shows the pattern as a row of dots, with the current step highlighted during playback.

• Steps - 1 to 32 (pattern length)
• Hits - 0 to Steps (active beats)
• Rotation - 0 to Steps (pattern rotation offset)
• Step Length - Beats per step (default: 0.5 = 8th notes)

HUMANIZE

Adds random timing and velocity variations for a natural feel.

• Timing Amount - 0.0 to 1.0 (max ~50ms offset at full)
• Velocity Amount - 0.0 to 1.0
• Modulatable: Timing, Velocity

SCALE QUANTIZER

Forces notes to the nearest pitch in a chosen scale.

• Scale Name - Select from scale library (Major, Minor, Dorian, etc.)
• Root Note - C through B (0-11)

RANDOM TRANSPOSE

Randomly transposes each note within a semitone range.

• Min Semitones - -24 to +24
• Max Semitones - -24 to +24
• Modulatable: Min Semitones, Max Semitones

MARKOV CHAIN

Learns pitch transition probabilities and generates variations.

• Order - 1 to 3 (number of previous notes considered)
• Mode - Learn (absorb input), Generate (output variations), Both
• Temperature - 0.0 (deterministic) to 1.0 (fully random)
• Modulatable: Temperature

The Markov chain builds a transition matrix from incoming notes and uses it to generate melodically related variations. Lower temperature stays closer to learned patterns; higher temperature adds more randomness.

STYLE LEARNER

Learns patterns from a connected source and generates stylistically similar variations.

• Record - Enable to learn from incoming notes
• Generate - Enable to output learned variations
• Temperature - Variation amount (0-1)
• Modulatable: Temperature
