Added 2022-03-30 17:15:24 +0000 UTCIn this video we show our entire process of creating a track from beginning to end. Part 1 focuses on generating random sounds, and Part 2 (which will be released next week) looks at arranging those sounds into a finished song.

2024-01-15 00:09:48 +0000 UTCFor that 'bug' with the device randomizer not mapping to gain and feedback I would just make a rack first, randomize the macros and then start mapping parameters to them, that way it does work fine.

2023-01-23 17:11:47 +0000 UTCHey guys, first of all thanks for everything! Quick question: when I download the max for live device randomizer, it does not look at all like the one you use in this video, and doesn't seem to work at all. Any tips on what I might be missing? It is the only one I can find online. Thanks in advance!

2022-12-28 12:15:46 +0000 UTCI have noticed that device randomizer doesn't automatically map any macros named "Gain" "Feedback" etc. I think they made it so on purpose so as to not make anyone deaf. If you rename the macro to anything else the issue goes away. Awesome tutorial BTW!

2022-06-17 09:24:57 +0000 UTCI made some stuff with M4L in University and from my experience there isnt anything in particular that causes these bugs. M4L just likes to misbehave whenever it feels like it......
