Not logged in, cannot sync.Generative Music Tools: LFOs and Pitch Quantization - On demand
Taught by: Samuel Pearce Davies
There are a broad array of techniques musicians can use to generate music in Max. One fundamental component of traditional analogue synthesiser use is the LFO, or low-frequency oscillator. Additionally, pitch quantization can be an extremely powerful tool, especially when used alongside the values generated by an LFO.
Level
What you'll learn
- Learn the basics of LFOs and pitch quantizers
- Build a standalone LFO patch with variable waveforms and a functional UI
- Build a quantizer which will map incoming pitch values to user-defined scales/modes
- Use both devices to control parameters of sound synthesis and assist in generative music composition
