Process notes
Random generation of two MIDI parts, Ableton Live Suite 11
– string instrument pluck (single notes, arped)
– organ sound (two notes, using chord midi effect)
– Use only delay on string pluck sound – and env follower from organ to affect delay speed
– Use only corpus on organ and env follower from pluck to impact corpus decay
– Adjust gain/attenuator of env follower as the piece goes on.
– Automate reverb, Buffer Shuffler & distortion as piece goes on.
