aidan o driscoll Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) GENERATIVE MUSIC ( via Wikipedia ) - "Generative music is a term popularized by Brian Eno to describe music that is ever-different and changing, and that is created by a system" My first intro to Generative Music was back a good bit via a piece of software called KOAN, at the time backed by BRIAN ENO as something to look at. the company who created this has now moved onto an app called WOTJA pro ( which I have ). Its a MS STORE App on Windows 10. Here is a list of other Generative Music apps on PC: https://blog.zzounds.com/2019/06/20/beat-tools-generative-music-software-for-pcs/ Included in this list is AUDIOMODERNS RIFFER Plugin. I wonder has anyone else here explored this ambient genre over the years? Edited February 16, 2021 by aidan o driscoll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got hit in the head by a 12 ton bus. My memory ain't what it used to be. Back on track, @aidan ... this is interesting. I'll check it out. As soon as I thaw. ?

Bruno de Souza Lino Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) The first app already receives 100 thumbs down because the Windows version can only be downloaded through the App Store. Wolfram Tones can give you some rudimentary generational music you can save as a MIDI file.

Michael A.D. Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Ableton Live can do some great generative music stuff with it's clip Launch modes. (This is one of the only things I like about Live.)

Doug Rintoul Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Also check out this thread on KVR. Lots of good stuff in there. https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=517113&start=1080 Reactor also has many generative modules.

If you want to go the virtual modular route, VCV Rack and Cherry Audio Modular may be a thing to look into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
