Mozaic script request
Looking for a Mozaic script that would send out midi notes (between a low and high adjustable range) with quite large (adjustable) gaps between them. With a choice of ascending, descending, random…)
Eg. Send random midi notes between C1 and D2 every 4 bars
Eg. Send ascending midi notes starting at C3 and rising up semitones to C5, every 16 bars.
Even better if it could be tweaked to send Programme Changes and CC messages instead.
Why? I’d like to be able to have an AUM set where drum patterns and/or riffs aren’t stuck until you manually change them. Would be great if the script automates flipping to different beats/riffs, to keep it interesting.
My programming skills aren’t up to writing this but very happy to work with someone who has that talent!

I just posted a script that converts incoming CC events to Notes. Driving it with Rozeta LFO you can create random notes between note ranges you want to add extra drum notes and control the density, randomness, volume, and note length.
It might be useful to test your idea. It’s on patchstorage as the “CC Composer”.
It could be enhanced to play on subdivisions of the BPM pulse. As a drummer I fear randomness because it sounds like mistakes but I’d love to be surprised. I make a lot of drumming scripts too but nothing that beats the wealth of IOS drum apps but I try.
I have a “drum circle” app that plays one note like one conga or one cowbell and I load up 12 drummers and dial in different patterns for each. It gets very African fast but then I started pointing it at synths and pianos and anything and it gets non drummy. You could use it to add more notes between C1 and D2. AUM can run a lot of Mozaic or I could enhance the script to output say 11 distinct note patterns. I think I will do that before I post it.
thanks McD, I'll check it out.
to give my request more context this is what I'm trying to achieve:
It would be great if the script could step through the drum patterns in Hammerhead so i could program various beats and know that my drums are going to change every 16 bars, or 32 bars. I think Hammerhead would need program changes to do this.
I also have lots of step sequencer patterns running from Cells and to keep things fresh it would also be great to have the patterns change every 16 or 32 bars. Most of Bram Bos' app's have a feature where notes around C1 will trigger each of the 8 patterns in each instance of Cells.
I also use Pure Acid for basslines and it would be cool to be able to step through the built-in sequencer patterns automatically. I think Pure Acid may also require program changes but I'm not sure.
In short i have a quite sophisticated AUM "live setup" and I'd rather be playing with sound design and mixing tricks than triggering patterns (which doesn't take much skill!)
Oh… that’s not what I was thinking. Scripting to control an app is different but could be doable. LK which is the closest app to Abletons way of firing off midi patterns on demand in 4-8-16 bar “scenes” might be the best solution without custom MIDI coding. But I’ll look into Hammerhead and see what ideas come to mind. I’m an old school drummer and I grab the LUMbeats apps and Luis never coded machines… they sound very human and acoustic. Just so you know where my head is at.
Xequence can send CC’s and PC’s along with notes. Maybe Atom2 can do this too. Mozaic can of course do almost anything with MIDI.
yes I thought about using Atom2 but was hoping to use something much lighter.
BTW Hammerhead patterns are switched with midi note on messages starting a C0 thru G0
Not program changes as I previously thought.
Did anyone ever ask for an Axon 2 (by AudioDamage) randomiser?
That would be neat!
Do you mean something that acts on midi like Axon 2 works on audio?
That would be quite a difficult though interesting challenge.
Not entirely sure…
There is a spectrum synth settings randomiser script , I was thinking of something similar… ?
Yea I even took that script one step further and shared an AUM template on Patchstorage with 3 instances of Mozaic. Each one is connected to one of the synths, spectrum, modal, resonator. So it’s all set up to create patches for all 3 synths inside one AUM session.
Humm. What Axon 2 does has little resemblance to the Spectrum Randomizer. That just generates random values for a number of CC parameters on demand.
Axon 2 is actively glitching out audio passing through it in pattern, random, and semi random ways on its own. You can tweak its parameters live to get all kinds of glitchy effects. Reproducing that behavior, but with midi would be an interesting but very substantial challenge.
If all you're looking for is random CC generation, check out Mega CC Randomizer and Scenes and Mega CC Randomizer.
Thanks @wim …. Axon2 is still new to me, despite having for ages!
I will try the cc scripts…
@Poppadocrock cool, I’ll check that AUM session out… sounds neat!
