less concepts: max for live
'less concepts' uses elementary cellular automata (CA) to scan sets of notes and determine which ones to play + when, by iterating a seed value through a set of simple rules.
this max for live version includes all the major functions of the norns script of the same name. it also has a unique feature set:
- [olafur] mode: inspired by the self-playing pianos of Olafur Arnalds, [olafur] will bypass the chosen scale and will build note pools from direct keyboard input. just arm the track and play a chord.
- [laurie] mode: inspired by Music Mouse by Laurie Spiegel, [laurie] will add chord voicings to your bit streams. choose a gating bit and enable '1' '2' or '3' for unique harmonies.
- five text-based meta sequencers: using text operators, sequence/modulate/randomize all parameters to extend expressivity.
